A TERRIFIC EXPLOSION
Portion Of Powder Works Blows Up
and Shakes Several Towns.


Halifax, n. s., Dec. ga portion
of the Acadia Powder ,company's
works, near Waverly, 10 miles from
this city, blew up, and the concussion
shook the country and broke windows
for 20 miles around. Fortunately no
one was killed or seriously injured, al
though about 20 of the employees, who
had just left the powder works when
the explosion took place, were thrown
violently to the ground and badly
stunned.
The plant is situated mile outside
of Waverly, yet every window in the
town was broken and many people on
the streets were cut by the shower Of
broken glass. The property loss at the
Acadia works is estimated at $25 900.
The explosion was in a small build

about ton of powder was stored, AMI
is believed to have been due to over
heating. TIE co1cussion demolished

The petition alleges that the defend

with a capital stock of 100000, divid-
ed into 1000 shares, which were dis
tributed among and are now held by
certain of the defendants named, and
that later the others were taken into
the combination, naming them in the
order in which they entered the conf
bination, and goes on to state that the
General Paper company became the
exclusive selling agent for the defend
ants, with absolute power to control
the output OF the various mills, fix the
price of all paper sold and to whom
and upon what terms and conditions
the paper should be sold; and into
what states and places it shall BIT

Mr.. THOMAS NELSON PAGES
CONCLUSION.

Mr.. THOMAS NELSON PAGES conciu-
sion Of his admirable article ON 1.-THE
Old Time Negro" as published in
SCRIBNER's MAGAZINE for November is
as touchingly pathetic as any portion
of the narrative.
Those of us who knew the late Mr..
JOHN DABNEY, the caterer, will appre-
ciate fully this tribute to the honesty
of deserving Virginian of the old
school. He says:
The character of the old. time Negro 1
can hardly better illustrate than by the
case of an old friend Of mine, John
Dabney, to whom 1, in common with
nearly all my acquaintance in Rich
mond, used to be greatly indebted, for
he was the best caterer / ever knew.
John Dabney was, in his boyhood, q
race rider for noted Virginia turfman,
Major William r. johnson, but, possibly
because OF his gifts as a cook, he soon
grew too fat for that clean and hungry"
calling, and in time he became cele-
DRAFTED cook and caterer. He belonged
to one of the De Jarnetts Of the adjoin-
ing county to my native county, and
prior to the war, he bought himself from
his mistress. as was not infrequently
done by clever Negroes. When the
war closed he still owed his mistress
several hundred dollars ON account of
this debt, and as soon as he was able to
raise the sum he sent it to her. She
promptly returned it, telling him that
he was free and would have been free
anyhow and that he owed her nothing. On
this, John Dabney took the money, went
to his old homo and insisted on her re-
ceiving it, saying that his old master
had brought him up to pay his debts,
and that this was just debt which he
proposed to pay.
He adds the following testimonial:
The instances are not rare in which
old family servants who have worked
under the new conditions more success
fully than their former owners have
shown the old feeling by rendering
them such acts of kindness as could
only have sprung from deep and abid-
ing affection.
He says further:
Whoever goes to the White House
Will find at the door Of the executive
offices an elderly and very stout Negro
door-keeper, with perfect manners, a
step as soft as the fall of the leaf, and an
aplomb which nothing can disturb. His
name is Arthur Simmons, and. until to-
ward the close of the war, he was a
gentleman's servant in North Carolina
then he came North. He is, possibly the
Oldest employee in the White House,
having been appointed by General Grant
during his first term, and having held
his position, with the exception of a sin.
gle term-that of General Harrison-to
the present time. 1t is said that Mr.,
Oleveland's first appointments after his
return to office was that of Arthur Sim.

Negroes of the present generation their
manners and cost them much Of the
friendship of the whites.
None of US knows what relation the fu-
ture may produce between the two races
in the South, but possibly when the self
righteous shall be fewer than they are
now and the teachings which have 90
tranged the races shall become more
sane the great Anglo. Saxon race. which
is dominant, and che Negro race, which
is amiable, if not subservient will ad-
just their differences more in accordance
with the laws which must eventually
prevail and the old feeling of kindli-
ness, which seems, under the stress Of
more reassert itself.
This is a wish in which W can all
join. We know that there are tens of
thousands of colored people, who are I'M
couth and devoid of good manners, but
the corn-field system and the freedom
that came suddenly tended to make
them so.
But ON the other hand, there are
thousands of as courtly youngsters to-
day in the hotels and club houses OF
the North and the South as ever han
died a waiter during the palmy days of
the shareholders regime.
No one who has visited the aristocrat-
ic Westmoreland Club house, where
Mr.. PAGE often may be found during
his Willing away" moments here or
at the palatial Commonwealth Club
house will doubt the truth of all that
we say.
These colored servants are living
