THE NEGRO VOTE.

The Monroe News, in discussing
the probability Of the negroes in
the Northern states voting for
Bryan and Kern. very sensibly de.
clares
For Democrats to trim and pom
der for negro votes in the North.
ern states is folly. A Republican
administration freed the negro,
Republican administrations, with
bayouet rule. put them in control
of public affairs in the South and
held them in position while they
and a lot of white scoundrels rob-
bed and debsuched the state gov.
eminent of the South; Republican
teachers, preachers, papers and po-
liticians have proclaimed social
equality and held out hope to the
negro of entrance to the white
mans table and psrlor. And the
negro knows that Democrats in
the South have eliminated him
from the electorate and forever
slammed the door to social equali-
ty in bis face.
knowing these things, the ne
gro is naturally Republican and
it is folly for the Democratic par
ty, by any kind of honeying, to at
tempt to make Democratic voters
out of Republican negroes"

Camel Races.

Camel races are held regularly in the
south of Algeria, where valuable prizes
are offered for the encouragement of
the breed Of racers, and as much inter
est is taken in their preparation and
performance as in that of race horses
In this country. The racing camels are
the result of very careful breeding
through many generations, and in size,
temper and appearance they are so
different from the ordinary beast of
burden that they might almost be con-
sidered different race of animals.
Perhaps the most conspicuous char
acteristic of the ordinary camel is its
extreme slowness. Nothing on earth
will ever induce it to hurry. A twenty
dollar note will buy a very fair speci-
men, but for a mehari, or racing camel,
five or ten times that sum is required
to effect purchase.
The racer, however, can be depended
on for nine or ten miles an hour
kept up for sixteen or seventeen hours
almost without stop. The pace in a
camel race is generally fast and furi-
GUS at the beginning, when all the anil
mails are together and seem to realize
that contest is In progress.

The Carrier PIGEON,

Did you ever hear of pigeon carry
ing messages over long distances? The
service this little creature can tender
is beyond belief. Long before the tele-
graph was even dreamed Of the car
rier pigeon was trained to bear mes
sages to immense distances, and in
times of war it carried communica-
ton from the besieged city to the out
er world. The carrier pigeon post has
been cultivated mostly by the Dutch.
The process of training these little
creatures consists In taking them a
short distance from home, to which
they find their way back very easily.
This distance is gradually increased
until they are brought as far as it Is
desired they should fly. The letter
containing the message is tied around
the stem of the middle feather of the
tail. Here it neither binders the pi-
geon's fight nor will it fall off, but
when it is flying the other feathers
generally cover the letter and protect
it from rain

The Weather In Africa,

Everybody seems to think of Africa
as a place of torrid heat, with no re-
lief anywhere. But that is far from
the truth, says Chicago News. As a
matter of fact, some parts of that
country are as temperate as our own,
and other parts-Where the ground
reaches great elevation-are cold.
Our impression of the climate of the
country is based on what we have
heard of the heat of it's lowlands. A
priest who lived on the Pacific coast
there for eight years says that he new
err saw the mercury higher than IS de-
grees, and at Stanley Falls, where he
now lives, the highest that it ever
reaches is 90 degrees, with nights that
are nearly always COOL But when it
comes to storms, he says, Africa beats
anything that a European ever dream
ed of. He asserts that he once count
ed sixty-six lightning strokes in one
minute and says also that he has
known ten thunderbolts to strike with
in a radius of a few hundred yards in
the space Of two hours.
