Railroads Kept Busy.


The railroads were busy today han
ding the special parties en- route for
ST. Louis. and the finest traing ever sent
out Of the city OF Washington conveyed
the numerous parties. The Maryland
State commission passed westward over
the Baltimore and Ohio last night in a
special car. This morning ct II O'Clock
more than one hundred Washington
newspaper men left over the same line
in charge of p. V. DeGraw, Of the expo
sition company ard J. H Maddy, for
the Baltimore and Ohio road. They &C
cupied a special train
This afternoon at , o'clock the mem
bars of the Diplomatic Corps left Wash
irgton in a special train over the Penn
syIvania lines. Cardinal Gibbons, Of
Baltimore. and ez-President Grover
Cleveland occupied special cars attached
TO wcsrbound trains Of the Baltimore
and Ohio road, and the Marine Band, in
charge of Lieutenant Santelmann, left
Washington in two special sleepers On
route for the exposition. They went
over the Baltimore and Ohio road The
Government board used the Chesapeake
and Ohio road and occupied two special
sIeepers on a train leaving Washington
yesterday. Everything possible h. been
planned for the comfort Of the parties.
and sTeciaI representatives Of each road

Lafayette" Trilby."


''Triiby'' is the attraction at the La
fayete Opera House this week. It's pre-
sentation by the Berger stock company
is one OF the best given here since Paul
Potter's drametfzation of Du Mauriers
book Of the same name was first put
on the boards in Washington.
That the Berger stock company has
made a host OF friends is attested by
the large crowd present at the perform
ance last night. Furthermore, that its
performance Of -'TriIby" was appreci-
ated was shown by frequent curtain
calls. Every member Of the cast was
made TO appear and bow his thanks in
return for the vociferous applause.
John T. Sullivan as svengah present
ed a distinctively meritoTious enactment,
even though the character is tradition
ally associated with the acting of Viii
ton Lackave.
TriIby. as portrayed BY Selene John

acter had. however, further interest
locally because of Miss rohnson's fine
quality IS an emotional actor
Charles WyEgate. as Taffy, and william

their admirers anew their ability as

he appeared ct disadvantage because
Of a severe cold The staging of the
play was far superior to that Of the
usual presentations of stock productions.
With two successes to their credit in
two weeks. the Berger stock company
seems assured OF pronounced success in
Washington. Already crowds It each
performance indicate the popular sue
cess of the company.

Conditions in the Anthracite Regions.
The strike is over. and the effects
of the unpleasantness has long disap-
peared," said Charles Andrews. of
Pottsyilie. Pa. at the Metropolitan.
For several months. however. the an
thracite region was badly demoralized,
and the merchants experienced trying
times even though the remainder Of the
country was prosperous.
The miners are ali at work now and
little labor difficulties are readily ad-
justed John Mitchell has done much 10
keep the miners in line. and his in
fuence with men Of capital has served
to get the miners many concessions. The
people OF the country not familiar with
these 1aborers look upon them with
some degree Of suspicion.
4 want to state that I have been
associated with them in business, and a
better class viii not be found. I live
in the heart of the region and know
thousands OF the miners personally.
They are we'll organized and were far
from being defeated when the President
took a hand in the contest and appoint
ed the coal strike commission. The
newspapers did much to win the fight
for the men. and to them the miners
are truly grateful

main undeveloped, for I could not in
duce my New York friends to touch it.
He was a stalwart fellow, who had
commanded company of Confederate
cavalry during the war, and he was
greatly disappointed at my failure to
negotiate funds. why, what's the
matter with them?" said he. Well"
I replied, they do not consider money
invested in southern property as
safe" Property is just as safe in
Alabama, as it is in Massachusetts,"
said he Indignantly. 81 know it," said
/, but I cannot make them believe 1t.
You see all these stories of killing ne
groes and running the homes Of carpet
baggers give them a prejudice" That's
all past" said he. That's all past,
I give you my word of honah, that thar
amt been nary niger kukluxed in this
county for noah than six yeahs. Don't
they read the papers up North. Don't
they know that the days of disorder
are ovah?" But they also know" said
I. that you refuse to give the colored
man the right of suffrage conferred up
on him by the 18th Amendment"
Thar they're wrong again. said he.
Thar they're dead wrong. Nobody in
this county interferes with niggah vot-
ing. The niggahs who want to vote go
right up to the polls and nobody inter-
feres with them sub. Last election mig
gahs voted in front Of me and behind
me and nobody tried to stop them, or
evan said cross word to them. Thar
is no interference here sub with the
constitutional right Of the niggah to
vote. OF cose, we CANT count their
votes, you understand that yourself
sub, for to count them might put in
office a lot of scallywags, who would
bankrupt us with taxes and thievery."
We've got no prejudices sub,
against white Republicans who are de-
cent men," continued he. "Thar's Cap

fall. He's a Republican" was he in
the WARP" said I. "Yes sub, he was in
the wah.'' ION which side did he fight? '
said I. well, sub, he was not par
ticular about that, he was a good deal
,promiscuous like. He wasn't Confed-
crate captain, and he wasn't a Federal
captain. He was sort of furniture
captain" "A furniture captain" said
1. What kind Of a captain was that?"
We'll sub, he had little steamboat,
and he used to run up and down the
Tennessee river, and whenever he found
a deserted home, or house not guard
ed, he didn't stop to ask whether 1t be-
longed to a Confederate or Union
man. He just took the furniture out Of
it and carried it up the river to Chat
tanooga, and sold 1t. He made right
smart at 1t, and when the wah was
ovah. he bought farm in this county,
and he Is well liked here, sub, for he is
a good man. and leading member of
the Baptist church, though he is a Re-
publican"
My observations lead me to the con-
clusion that the present relations Of the
races in the South, had best be left un-
disturbed to work out their own results.
Slavery and peonage, and all forms Of
enforced labor are gone for ever. The
right of frequent and unrestricted
change of residence is as freely
conceded to black as to white, but is
seldom exercised by the African, whose
bump of inhabitiveness is usually large.
That the negro is practically compelled
to abstain from participation in politics
is an injustice that is sentimental rath-
er than actual. The iron does not enter
into his soul to any great extent on
that account. He is not robbed, he is
not oppressed. he eats what he earns
always and sometimes does not earn
what he eats. His civil rights, except

THE TRUNK FISH

I Among the varied fish forms of Ha-
wall there exists peculiar species
known as Trunk fish which range the
shallower waters and often share the
limu and other vegetable deposits OF
the fish ponds with the silvery amaama
| or mullet.
They are ugly and repulsive looking
| objects and are esteemed poisonous by
the natives. Scientists classify them
| as probably poisonous, certainly nox-
| ious." Actual data as to their effect on
the human system is probably hard to
ious." Actual data as to their hard to
get as the mere sight of them destroys
any ambitions OF appetite.
Viewed from above their build pre-
sents no lines on which to model
theories of speed. They are squat,
without symmetry and of dirty brown
covered with dingy white spots giving
them a leprous appearance. Viewed
from the front they are triangular with

an apex of a triangle with slightly
concave sides. Their fixed eyes, bIeach-

eyebrows. Their movements sluggish,
their general aspect as clumsy and
non inviting as a toad.
With pale, pouting. protruding fieshy
lips they appear from birdseye view
from the top of a fish pond wall, not
unlike clumsy models of a battleship,
armed with ram. The resemblance is

screwlike motion OF their pectoral fins
and the lack of movement of their
tails which are mere rudders, placed
from time to time at an angle for guild

that Of an ordinary fish. Apparently
realizing that their flideousness renders
them immune from human interfer-
ence they propel themselves slowly
around the edge of the pond, sucking
at the sea slime on the walls or peb-
bles on the bottom.
Motion is attained by rapid move
ments of the anal and dorsal fms The
revolutions of the pectoral fms, work

to promote a more rapid flow of water

gflls, than their lethargic progress

Three hours more or less out of water
seems to have no effect on the Trunk
fish which remains solemnly revolving
his fms and tanning air into his open
gills. Placed in the water after the
expiration Of such a period, it sets its
tail at the required angle. starts up the
propellers on back and belly and goes
off as if brief sojourn in the air and
out of the water were an ordinary oc-
currence. The tail is never used as a
means OF propulsion save when the fish
makes an unusually rapid movement of
