ALEXANDRIA, VA.
THURSDAY EVENING, OCT. i

THAT we are living liz perilous times
is generally admitted by all persons
who are watching passing events. The
occurrences Of the past few weeks,
one following close upon the heels OF
another. are ominous. The sudden
transition OF the kingdom ofPortugal in
TO a modern republic and the expulsion
OF prelates, monks and nuns from the
country are events, which naturally al
tract much attention. The exiles seem to
be pilgrims indeed, as no country wants
them within their borders. While
the fires OF republicanism in Spain are
growing fiercer daily, that nation has
suddenly determined to renew the war
on Morocco. One OF the most colossal
strikes in history has been preclpltated
in France and the railway system OF
that country is now virtually tied up
with the telegraph and signal devices
crippled, rendering it unsafe to operate
trains even when in charge OF the
military. There is every reason to be-
lieye a revolution is to follow. While
all these acts are being chronicled
sporadic cases OF cholera are being
reported here and there in continental
Europe, while one victim Of the scourge
has been discovered in London and
another in New York. In our own
country forest fires have snuffed out
the lives OF many persons, towns and
villages in the northwest having been
completely wiped out and others
menaced.

Hohble skirts.

London, Oct. 13.-The patent elastic
hobble skirt has proved dismal fail
ure from the standpoint OF the firm
which invested several thousand dol
lars in the latest enterprise.
The elastic hobble appears to be
practical and the early sale was large.
The skirt was ruffled and under the
rufiles was an elastic band running
completely around the skirt. Thus,
though the fashionable effect was OBJ
tanned, the legs of the wearer were not
restricted, and walking, in the ordinary
way, became a pleasant and graceful
exercise.
But the patent hobble has been
taken off the market, though the
manufacturers had4made many thou
sand Of them.
Why? The lhobble manifested an
indecent desire to crawl up the legs Of
the wearers Eand stay there. Male
loungers in Piccadilly, Regent street
and Oxford street had delicious time
while it lasted.

THE negro question came up in the
national convention Of the Christian
Church in Topeka, Kansas, yesterday,
and was treated at length by J. d.
Lehman, president Of the Southern
Christian Institute in Mississippi. He
said:
If we do not take steps to discharge
our duty toward the negroes, their de-
generation will rapidly undermine our
society. The emancipation proclama-
ton freed about 1000, 900 negroes, or
about one-eighth of our entire popula'
ton. In the last 40 years these have
increased to about 100000, so that
they are still about one-tenth of our
population, IN spite of the fact that
millions OF foreigners are cast on our
shores every decade. In some localities
they are now 80 per cent of the popula-
ton; in some states they are over 90
per cent and in the entire south nearly
40 per cent. The social conditions Of
our towns and villages are simply alarm
ing. Unless we arrest sinister tenden-
cies we must prepare TO see in the next
so or rs years labor strife, mob violence
and night rider depredations.
Kansas over a half century ago was
the theatre Of John Browns exploits
and the nest in which abolitonism and
dreams OF negro equality were Matched.
That state seems to be reaping what
was sown there in by-gone days,

diction, which shall include chaplains

risdiction will be represented in the con-
vention by bishop to be known by the

he can count upon the army to support

war Probable.

Constantinople, Oct. 19.-Strong dip
lomatic pressure is being brought to
bear upon Constantinople by England,
France, Germany and Russia to com
pei the withdrawal OF Turkish troop:
from the Greek frontier, and to extort
assurances OF peaceful relations between
the Turks and Hellenes.
Turkey will resist the plan. Its re-
cent alliance with Roumania insures ii
against flank attack from Bulgaria,
and there is no doubt that German and
Austrian pledges have been secured
guaranteeing Teutonic force, il neces-
sary, to keep off the hands OF the larger
powers. The consequence is that war
between Turkey and Greece is be-
coming every day stronger probability.
