Y. brings to mind the assassination of Postmaster Fraser B Baker at Lake City, South Carolina. In the latter case, the nation was shocked, but it did not feel keenly the loss of one of its officials. The wave of condemnation ended with its exercise and the murderers were not punished, neither was the family of the victim cared for. Baker had emmitted no crime. He had discharged the duties of his office in his humble way. His demeanor was that of a servant of the public and he gave no one just cause for the prejudice against him. In this particular, he was like McKinley. In the comparison drawn, the colored man, Baker was the greatest sufferer. He was a awakened in the dead hours of night to find his home in flames and all of his possessions disappearing. With wife and child friend, he groped his way to the door to be fired upon by anarchists, better known in the South as lynchers. Baker died almost instantly. McKinley lived eight days after the murderous attack. Baker had no time for prayer, not time for meditation. McKinley had time to whisper the Lord's prayer and he declared his resignation to the divine will. Baker was butchered wilb no one near to lead a helping hand or give a word of sympathy. McKinley was surrounded by the secret service officials and his assailant had his nose broken by a colored man, named James B. Parker. Baker's murderers were white men. McKinley's murderer was a white man and there is reason to believe, as in Baker's ease that other white men were implicated. Baker's murder attracted attention and awakened comment. McKinley's murder has done both, but the nation feels its loss as keenly as it is possible for a brother to part with a brother the child with the parent and the idiot of to—day with the loved ones of eternity. Would to God it were possible for the bereaved widow — the angel wife of the dear President, to appreciate fully the heart-trobs and anguish of the wife of Postmaster Baker. HANGED A NEGRO BURGLAR. Hampton, S. C., Oct. 22.—An unknown negro who committed bullying in the residence of Dr. Helper was run down with dogs and hanged. The negro said to be a tramp, secured some jewelry from the Helper residence. He fired at Dr. Helper and the neighborhood was arrested and dogs put on the track. The man was hanged where caught.

Being a zealous worker he naturally is surrounded by a zealous membership. We shall expect to hear of great work accomplished in the cause of our Lord and Saviour ere he returns to us. He will also spend sometime in Cypress Ark. Miss C.I. Haywood, agent* for A new Negro for new Century, made our office a pleasant call this week. Call up Blue 375. Mr. Henry, Martin made a flying trip to Fort Leaveworth this week. The funeral of Mrs. Cora Hendriok's Simmons was held Thursday afternoon from the 7th and Aun A. M. E. Church Interment at Quindaro. Mrs. Simmons was well and favorably known in the two cities she died after an illnes covering some months of consumption. COMPARED, Her husband was assassinated, infant murder ed, another child crippled and herself maimed for life within the confines of her South Carolina home. We would to God that fa nation could turn its outward eyes inward for a moment and, during its heid intervals of its anguish realize the calamity which befoil that numble Negro in his attractive, but humble home. It is now reported that the expenses of the funeral of McKinley will be borne by the national government. It is doubtful if enough of the remains of Baker were found to make a funeral: It is reported that a years salary, ($50,000) fifty thousand dollars—will be voted Mrs. McKinley. It is known that not even one month's salary, not even as much as ($30,000) thirty dollars were voted to Mrs. Baker. The Country—the nation is doing the proper thing by President McKinley and his lone widow. Did I do the proper thing by Mrs. Baker and her suffering children? There are hundred of Bakers who have been the victims of the anarchists of the South—land. Will the nation awake to the full sense of its responsibility,—a full realization of its duty? Will it ever learn that it cannot tolerate lawlessness is one section of the domain, without ultimately feeling its blighting effect in the other section of the same country? Will it ever understand that a blow at the humble citizen will as the years come and g. react upon the person of the greatest? If the death of President McKinley tends to emphasize these, truths, then he will not have died in vain. The execution of his murderer afford some satisfaction to the revengeful; but the piny life offered up in atonement for the heinous crime is but an atom as compared with the greatness of the man whom he has slain. According to the theory of our governme*t, McKinley was but a man, but as a matter of fact he held in his hands the vital interests of the nation Leon Czolgosz is a national criminal. The sooner he and his kind are wiped from the earth, the better it will be for those who remain upon it. One thing is certain, an anarchist in New York is just as bad as an anarchist in South Care-lina, and the hanging or electrocating of them in either one of the States on through the entire country will afford satisfaction to all right—thinking people throughout the civilized word, —Richmond Plm t. A NEGRO EXHIBIT AT ST. LOUIS. A convention of negroes has been called to meet here November 20 to get negroes interested in a specific exhibit at the Louisiana Purchase exposition in 1803, and to discuss other proposition of interest to the race. It is proposed that the exhibit shall be placed in a special building to be designated and erected by negroes.

Keep your eyes on this paper. --- AMERICAN It is amusing to sensible people to read of the goat mess the Southern copperheads and their paper are kicking up, because President Roosevelt asked a friend who chanched to be a black man, to dine with him at the white house. We wonder if the President must limit his freindra to just who the South wants. One thing, we surmise, that hurts, is that a Negro was accorded a privilege few of the kicking Southern aristocracy have been or ever will be accorded. Concerning the affair in a recent interview, Booker T. Washington, the negro orator and president of Tuskegee institute, delivered an address to about 800 persons at Huntington, L. I., opera house last night on the race question. When asked to the meaning of violent denunciation of President Roosevelt by Southern news papers for giving the negro orator a dinner at the white house, ar. Washington said, "I do not care to say much about the matter. I think the newspapers are getting up a sensation over it and they do not voice the opinion of the Southern people. However, they are hurting the entire South more than they are president Roosevelt. They represent a transient emotional sentiment on the part of the white people of the south, but such feeling does not last, do not indicate the general feeling and opinion of Southern people." Have you been personally acquainted with President Roosevelt for some time? asked the reporter. "Yes, I have known him for a number of years. We have consulted many times over matters pertaining to my race in the South. The President is very much interested in the Tuskegee work and keeps posted upon it right along. As far as I can learn of him he makes no distinction as to the color of a man's cuticle when he wants to get at faces, and is as ready to consult with the negro, Indian or Chinese as he is with the Anglo-Saxon when he wants to get at the whole situation in any line of his work. I esteem him very highly as a man of sense and integrity. "There were two or three other guests with us at the dinner given by the President, it was a private affair." "Have you not been received at the homes of some of the best white people of the South? ask the reporter." "I have, said Mr. Washington. "I do not weigh very heavily these violent outburst of a few of the newspapers and thinks it will blow over soon. MARRIES FOURTEENTH WIFE. Pachybrhilla, KY. Barbour bwrle. 4.

Meridy is 40 years old and in appearance resembles Buffa o Bill. Four of his wives are dead and nine have been divorced. MISS PORTIA WASHINGTON. If there were any doubt in the minds to the authories of Wellesley college as to the admission of Miss. Porta Washington, daughter of Booker T. Washington, the colored educator whose dinner with President Roosevelt has caused so much excitement in the South, there is no evidence of it to be seen to-day. On the contrary, everybody, student as well as faculty, are unfeignedly proud of the acquisition, and are showing the young woman every possible courtesy and attention. At the home of Mrs. Bradhart, in Howe st where Miss Washington is living, she occupies a position of absolute equality. The young woman is studiously devoting herself to music with the expectation of becoming a teacher in her father's institution at Tuskegee, and also taking a course in English, German and French literature. Socially, she is maintaining her place among her fellows. Recently she acted as hostess at an afternoon tea and reception, which was at attended by all of the members of the freshman class, and in the meetings in the barn she takes great delight in the doings of the 'Barn Swallows. TWO GOOD REASONS Concerning criticism of President Roosevelt, s dinner invitation to Professor Booker. T. Washington, two remarks naturally suggest themselves: First considering that negroes are found in every state in the Union, the reason why the people of the South should regard the White House hospitality to Professor Washington as an insult to themselves is not apparent Secondly the president, right to invite any American Citizen to dine with him cannot be questioned or bridged. A NOVEL PRAYER. A white minister after conducting service at a colored church asked an old desacon to lead in prayer. The brother in black offered a fervent appeal for the white brother and said: "O Lord gib him dee eye of eagle dale he spy out sin afar off Weld his hands to de Gospel plow. Tle his tongue to de line ob truth.Nail his eva to the Gospel pole Pole Boh his way down behind his knees and his knee way down in some lonesome, dark and narrow valley where prayer is much wanted to be made. Noint him wid de keroene lie of salvation and set him on fir ONE of the most insatiable things that seems closely allied to the Negro is his lack of preparation for death. In this land of Lodges and Industrial insurance, it is an outrage upon the public when one dies, that solicitor must be put out in order to keep the individual from being buried in the potter'sfield, by the city or county. Five coppers a week will insuro any individual of a reasonable age for enough to give them a decent burial at death. From 25 to 50 cents a month most of the Secret societies admit, look after during illness and bury when dead, its members. There is no excuse why every Negro in only moderate circumstances (and we are all that way) is not identified with some good secret fraternity or carrying a policy in some industrial insurance company. Along the religious line the Negro overdoes himself and easily neglects all else. If ministers would exhort sometime to induce the mass of the Negroes to live here on earth and while preparing to meet their God to prepare to live so, when the time comes to shuffle off, that they can be decently buried. We say thus for the future benefit of those who are now living with out thought of dying and leaving other people the trouble of begging the public to pug you away. The religion of our Lord, and Savoir is alright but will the churches take care of you when sick and bury you when dead? The comments of Tillman of South Carolina on the President, s entertainment of Booker Washington are thoroughly characteristic and are as offensive as a coarse mind and a nasty tongue can make them. It cannot be said that they are extraordinary in their scurrility for the average of vulgarity in Tillman admits of no climax.—K. C. Star FIRST OF THE SEASON.

Mrs—Mary Robb Mother of Miss Blanche Robb of N 8 St accidently fell down a flight of stairs yesterday and sustained a broken limb and other bruises Already there is a movement on foot to reconstruct the church at Washington in which President Roosevelt worships. "It is small because its congregation is small, and the pastor is moderately paid because the congregation is poor, commented a resident of the District of Columbia. "There'll be no trouble in raising the $80,000. I can cite a case in point: President Garfield belonged to the sect of Christians, more popularly and generally known as Campbellites. Indeed, he was a Campbellite preacher early in his career. when he was elected president it at once occurred to the people throughout the country that the modest little chapel in Washington which was good enough for congressman Garfield, would hardly do for Pres. Garfield. At the time of his assassination almost enough money had been subscribed to build a comparatively prestigious edifice. It is a sorry comment on theickness of the people that the edifice was never build because the majority of the subscriptions were never paid. If I remembrerightly, an appeal was made carrying with it an agreement to call the church 'Garfield Memorial Chapel.' But even that didn't fetch'em." Holiness is secret of all sacred things. The call of God may read, "Go," but it means "Come with Me." Churches may be better measured by their gifts than by their gains. When you contain God you do ♀ ♀. No man lives honestly till he has se God openly. The best way to hide God is to try to analize Him. LEAD ON HYPNOTISM. The use of hypnotism as a means of legal investigation has just been sanctioned by the Ghent court of appeals in regard to a case known as the "Borreman trial," which it was found impossible to elucidate by means of ordinary evidence. It appears that in the course of certain celebrations held at Alost in June, 1899, M. W. Borreman, a merchant of that town, was seriously injured, and as a result upward of twenty arrests were made. Four of the defendants were fined and one condemned to two months' imprisonment, while damages were awarded to the plaintiff. An appeal was subsequently made on behalf of defendants, and a new trial has been in progress for some time past. One of the principal points put forward by M. Borreman was that as a result of the attack made upon him, he suffered from deafness. Medical examination having failed to give satisfactory evidence as to the degree of deafness from which he suffered, its cause, or the probability of curing it, three experts who had charge of the case, and among whom is a professor of Ghent university, submitted that in order to elucidate these points they should hypnotize M. Borreman. The latter having given his consent, the court has just sanctioned the carrying out of the proposal. This is the first time in Belgium that the use of hypnotism has been sanctioned for judicial purposes. The result is awaited with considerable interest. BEAUTIFUL OCEAN ANEMONES Specks on Shells Are Beautiful Living Ocean Flowers Along the entire Atlantic coast there lie, day after day, tide after tide, clam shells, shells, shells, and stones with dirty, silmy, wart-like specks on them. Rub them, and nothing is left except a disagreeable viscid fluid. Yet all these specks are living ocean flowers, the wonderful sea anemones that vie with land flowers in beauty and with the oddest of land animals of oddity. Pick up one of these dirty shells with the warts on it and place it carefully in a pool of clear, cold sea water, where the tide can reach it to keep it pure, and you will see a marvelous thing. So slowly the motion is almost imperceptible the wart will lengthen itself out and the least bit. Then its apex begins to swell, and finally a sharp eye can see that it is opening. Suddenly petals commence to sprout from it. You are beholding the growth of a perfect sea blossom. Bit by bit the delicate, rich-tinted petal grows. It may take five minutes, it may take an hour, according to circumstances, before the flower is open. But it is worth waiting for, even if one has to wait an entire day. These petals are of every shape and of every size and of every color. Some anemones are exactly like splendid dahlias when they are fully open. Others are of a delicate texture and tint like purple esters. CITIZEN How Petroleum Is Refined. How Petroleum is Refined. The refining of petroleum is a process of distillation, in which it is separated into several marketable products. There are two methods of distillation, known technically as "in vacuo" and "cracking." ... the petroleum is distilled in a partial vacuum, and in the second, with superheated steam. This process receives its name from the cracking sound of the steam as it enters the undistilled petroleum. Ideal City Will Not Be Near Ideal City Will Not Be Noisy.

LIGHTNING'S ODD CAPERS Unworthy Lover Killed on Grave of True-Herd Girl The romantic have found food for contemplation in deaths by sudden strokes of lightning, in which they have conceived that a higher power visited upon the heads of sinful mortals a just punishment for offenses for which the human code had no penalty provided. One of these was where a few years ago a young girl descended from the Indian race, educated at Carliand, and of refined tastes and lovely disposition fell in love with a young missionary who had gone to her tribe's residence to preach the gospel. The beautiful girl was a member of his congregation and he showed that he reciprocated her love, but it was developed that he considered the trace of Indian blood in her veins a bar to their marriage. The girl killed herself and a few nights afterward there came a severe thunder-storm, at the cessation of which the young minister was missing. Later his dead body was found on the grave of the girl, where he had been struck down by a bolt of lightning. The collectors of the curious stories of the freaks of lightning have preserved the account of the case where what appeared to be a ball of fire was observed rolling along the ground and finally into a shed where several pigs were penned. With comparatively slow and deliberate movements the ball traversed the inclosed ralls, skirted the sides of the pen, and was pursuing its so far harmless way along the floor when an overcurious pig concluded to investigate it more closely by rubbing his snout against it. At the touch of the pig's snout the shed on that side flew into small bits and the porcine student of electricity and his half-dozen brothers and sisters were instantly killed. CHANGING A ROSE'S COLOR. It was a lover who lately discovered this trick. When he was not with his lady love he was studying chemistry and experimenting, and one day recently he found an easy method of changing the natural color of flowers. He was in the habit of presenting his sweetheart with bouquets of beautiful roses which grew in his garden, and a few hours after he made the discovery he took her half a dozen of the choicest white roses and told her that she could learn through them whether he was really in love with her or not. "If you and I are destined for each other," he said, "these white roses will become crimson within five or six hours from now. Gradually but surely they will change color, and you regard the change not only as indication that the flowers are delighted to be worn by you, but also as an infallible sign that happiness is assured to us in the future." Sure enough before the eyes of the wondering maiden the roses changed color and were crimson at sunset that evening. Marvelous indeed the change seemed to her, for how could she know that the roses were originally red and that her lover had simply bleached them white by holding them for some time over a pan filled with smoking sulphur before he handed them to her? At Monte Carlo. The principality of Monaco is surrounded on all sides by the French Department of Alps Maritime, except to the south, where it borders on the sea. Its total area is eight square miles and its present ruler is Prince Albert of Monaco, who succeeded his father in 1899. It is picturesquely situated, and many visitors are attracted by the mildness of its climate and its beauties as a health resort, but the main attraction to the great majority of its visitors is the legalized gambling at the Casino of Monte Carlo. The Casino Company, out of the profits of the gambling has practically to bear the cost of spiritual and temporal government for the Principality, and, in addition $250,000 annually to the Prince for the concession. Last year the company paid $45,000 for grants to bishop, clergy, convents and educational institutions, and $30,000 in gifts to charity. They also paid $100,000 for army, police, law courts and expenses of government. Armored Automobiles The progress of military automobility in Germany is indicated by the fact that the minister of war has later ordered a series of machines which will carry two small Maxim guns, protected by nickel-steel plates. He has also ordered a series of automobile breaks which will be provided with tables. These breaks will be used by the general staff and the officers may thus consult their maps or papers en route, spreading them upon the tables. A series of light vehicles, or volutrettes, is also to be constructed, to be used on the firing grounds for ascertaining the results of the cannon shot. In Austria-Hungary, the minister of war is having a series of automobiles constructed. Busy Little Women. Even the highest class of Japanese women have their household duties to perform, and, no matter how rich the family, Japanese girls are brought up to be able to sew, cook, and attend to their homes. The higher class women never go to market. The market comes to them—that is, the dealers call and offer wares for sale at their customers' doors. Nearly all Japanese women make their own clothes; at all events, even the very richest embroider their garments themselves. They are very economical little dress-makers, and do much planning, cutting, and basting and making over. MERICAN CITIZEN / PUBLISHING AND PRINTING CO.

The Duchess of Sparta was formerly the Emperor's favorite sister; but her sudden and unexpected "conversion" to the Greek church "infinitely exaperated his majesty and he has since been on the coldest times. No Use for It. Ucle Zebulon, from one of the bach townships, was on a visit to his nephew in the big city, and the two had gone to a restaurant for dinner. They had given their order and were waiting for it to be filled, when the younger man who had been glancing at a paper that lay on the table, said: "By the way uncle, did you ever have cerebro-spina meningitis?" "No," replied Ucle Zebulon, after a few moments' menta struggle with the question, "and I don't want any. I'd ruther have frier,ier and bacon any day." A Hard Bet to Win. In 1893 three Irishmen agreed to undertake a journey around the earth on foot for a jackpot of $150,000. Each one of the party deposited one-third of this sum in the Bank of Dublin, and it was agreed that whoever survived the trip and returned should receive the whole amount. In case all died a Dublin hospital was to become the beneficiary. On Dec. 24, 1895, they started east across Europe and Asia Minor to Egypt, where they took passage for Australia. Their wanderings through the inner wastes of Australia proved the hardest trials of the journey, and the severity of this trip resulted in the death of two of the travelers. The third, Capt Trevelyan, completed the voyage and won the money. —New York Press. OUR GREAT OFFER To the Colored People of the World. LUSTORONE THE GREATEST OF ALL HAIR TONICS.

Grigsby. AUDITORS. It is asserted by the defenders of "trusts" that in almost every instance the formation of a trust has been followed by a decrease in the price of the product. This is true; but in most instances trusts have been formed to check the downward tendency of prices by interfering with the operation of the law of supply and demand. Probably there is no conspicuous instance of lower prices following the organization of a trust, in which the prices to the consumer would not have fallen still lower if the trust had not been formed. The greatest objection to trusts is that they are wrong in principle, in that they interfere with a fundamental law of trade. Only persons under thirty years of age were ready to accept promptly Harvey's great discovery of the circulation of the blood; and just as youth is most apt to respond to the touch of genius so men rare abilities seldom fall of the spirit of perpetual youth. Keeping young is simply keeping abreast with the times we are in. At the recent anniversary in New York City of the founding of Stevens Institute, Mayor Hewitt related this incident: "When I was a student at Columbia, base ball was our only game, and not such a detachment to a college as it is to-day. We lost most of our balls by knocking them over into a yard of a house in Barclay street. One day when we were short and could not get any base balls, I was appointed a committee of one to visit the house and ask for some. A gentleman appeared in answer to my question, and producing a basket containing twenty-five or thirty balls, asked if they were ours. I said that I supposed they were. 'Every one of them has broken a window in my house,' he rejoined. 'You may take them, and when you have all the windows in my musketeer Duty on a Mouse Uncle Sam is a stern stickler for form, and the amount of red tape employed in the custom house is really remarkable. It was demonstrated the other day that not even a tiny mouse can creep into our domains from foreign shores without paying duty, says the Philadelphia Record. A gentleman returning from Europe brought with him a pet white mouse, of which he had grown very fond. His "mouselets" was assessed at 20 per cent, which so enraged its owner that he vigorously protested. The case was appealed, and the board of classification of the board of general appraisers, after mature deliberation in solemn conclave, handed down a decision in which the protest was overruled.

In his race for liberty he utilized a two-horse wagon ‘eam, a horse and buggy and a riding horse, all forcibly taken, while two dead bloodhounds mark the first por- tion of his trail, Officers believe the man is one of the gang that held up the Great Northern express near Wagner, Mont., last June, his attempt to get change for a $20 bill of the series secured in that robbery attracting the attention of the police to him. ‘At 10:30 a, m., a raw boned man about five feet ten inches in height, with a florid complexion, offered the bill in payment of a small purchase made at a store on the public square. Difficulty in making the change cansed tne salesman to notice the bill, which proved to be on the Montana bank to which the stolen bills were consigned, ‘The police were quietly notitied. the clerk meanwhile delaying the matter of change. Detectives Dwyer and Dickens were soon on hand and approaching the man, demanded, his name. “Ferguson,” was the reply, and af- ter another question or two Detective Dwyer informed the man that he was under arrest. Quick as a flash Fer- guson held a revolver in each hand and started for the door. A hand-to- hand fight ensued, both officers grap- pling with the stranger, who proved more than a match for them. Using his pistols as clubs he fought tris way to the door and fled down the street. A passing ice wagon caught his at- tention and the three negro ocenpants ‘were soon out of his way. Then, at a terrifle clip the wagon was headed across the Cumberland river bridge into East Nashville, a fusilade of shots following it. Out Woodland street went the flying team, but a sudden turn brought it to grief One of the horses fell and broke his leg, but the fugitive was not to be delayed. Rutning across the street he held up an old negro, who was driving by in a buggy, and the flight was continued, ‘Out Into the commons he sped. Once the buggy overturned but was quickly righted. Finally the tired horse was abandoned and after a dive into Shelby park on foot, the supposed bandit se: cured another horse, hitched at a point near the park. Then after a sensation- al ride the horse was left and the fight continued on foot. Further out the pursuers found two of the blood- hounds used in the chase shot to death ‘a short distance apart, and after that the trace of the man was lost. ‘The sheriff with a large posse is out scouring the country for the missing man, When the buggy was abandoned the man threw away a wallet contain- ing $1,040 in $10 and $20 bills of the Montana bank. Chief of Police Curran now has the money. ‘The woman, Annie Rogers. alias Maude Williams, arrested at Nashville some days ago with Montana bank bills in her possession, is still held at police headquarters. Every effort of the officials to induce her to talk of herself has proved a failure. and she is now as much of an enigma as she was the day she was apprehended. She declares she knows nothing of any man named Ferguson. FOR FLEECING A TOURIST.

NEGRO BURNED AT STAKE, ‘Micls Masts Dat Vaaguasye 20 20S Meera, Who Asseutted a White Woman, A negro named Bill Morris, who as- saulted Mrs. John Ball at Balltown, La. was burned at the stake. After heing captured he made an effort to implicate others, but they soon proved their innocence. He was taken to the scene of his crime, tied to a pine sap- hing with chains and his feet and hands chained to his body. Pine knots ind pine straw were piled about the borly and saturated with coal oll, and the whole set on fire. The negro made no outery when the flames first reached him, and only when he was partly consumed did the spectators notice any movement on his part. He made uo resistance when being bound to the stake and said that he deserved his fate. Mrs. Ball, while waiting on the ne- gro in her husband's store, turned her back. when the negro seized her and dragged her into the road. He beat his vietim in the head with a pine knot und thought he had killed her. Going back to the store he took all the money in the cash drawer and put coal oil on his feet and on his tracks when leaving. Mrs. Ball recovered consciousness and crawled to her father-in-law’s. He at once gave the alarm are the neighborhood com- menced a search for the negro. He was found at his home about four miles from the scene of the tragedy. He tried to escape but was shot by one of the posse and injured in the hip. ‘The fragrance left by dead flowers can be sweet, but that left by a dead love can be poison, 11 Didn't Last Long.

BRITISH CABINET WILLTRY TO LIMIT OBSTRUCTION. ARE TOO MANY IRISH MEMBERS From Thirty to Fifty More Than Island Ms Entitled to—Secretury Chamber- Jain Says the Time Has Come for Adopting Measures of Great~ er Severity In Dealing With the Wiowie. Mr. Chamberlain, the colonial secre tary, addressing upward of 8,000 per sons in Waverly Market, Edinburgh announced that the government in tended to frame new rules for th house of commons, so as to limit Irist obstruction. “We propose,” he said, “to. bring forward rules which shall give to th majority of the commons greater con trol over its own business and greate control over the men who insult an¢ outrage it; and we shall endeavor te protect the mother of parliament: from those who would destroy her usefulness and reputation. But this was not the only thing Mr Chamberlain declared the government intended to do. “The present representation of Ire Jand is,” he said, “an abuse and scan. dal. No alteration could be made ex. cept in immediate anticipation of a general dissolution, and we are not contemplating that, But when we get near to the time we shall ask you whether you think the Irish represen- tation is 50 precious to you, Is 30 val uable to the national interests that i is desirable to continue it on a seal whieh gives the Irish a representatior enormously exceeding the proportion ate representation of Ireland and Eng. land.” The colonial secretary went on t peint out that on the basis of popu lation Ireland had thirty members toc many in the house of commons and or the basis of her contributions for im perial purposes, as considered at th time of the union, she had from forty to fitty members, “I say that thls constitutes an abuse,” he’ continued, “and there is no reason why it should be perpetuated.’ In another portion of the speech which was largely devoted to the Irist question, he observed: “If these gentlemen who now openly shout for the Mahdi and pray for the Boers, if they had a parliament o their own, if all the strings of Irish government had been in their hands, if they had had the power, is it no certain that they would have placed us in @ position of embarassment?” The relations of the parliamentary ‘opposition with the Irish party, Mr. Chamberlain said, he considered “dan- gerous to the empire.” In reviewing the war in South Africa, which he declared again had been forced upon Great Britain by the Boers, he said the government ac knowledged that it had made a mis take as to the time of ending the war. and that he admired the tenacity of the Boers; but he insisted that it was the duty of Great Britain to meet thi tenacity with equal resolution. Ther followed what is regarded as a most important declaration, “L think the time has come, or i coming,” said the colonial secretary “when measures of greater severity may be necessary, and if that time comes we can find precedents for any- thing we do in the actions of those nations who now criticise our “bar barity’ and ‘cruelty,’ but whos examples in Poland, in the Caucasus in Algeria, in Tonguin, in Bosnia and in the Franco-German war we hav Re ee aaa age FIRE IN ARMOUR’S, AT OMAHA Flames Ta the Fertilizer Dapartment Did $59,000 Damage. A five which started in the fertiliz- ing building of the Armour Packing Company's plant at South Omaha did $50,000 of damage, equally divided be- ‘tween building and stock. The city fire department and the departments from all the packing houses respond- ed to the alarm and prevented a fur- ther spread of the fire. The fire is ‘thought to have originated from a spark from the fertilizing mill. The fertilizer stock was damaged mostly by water. The building, which is 80 by 100 feet and two stories ,is a total wreck. ‘The fire will not’ interfere with the work at the packing plant, but will result in throwing 100 men out of employment temporary. Viague in Constantinople. The United States sanitary commis- stoner at Constantinople has made a report on the plague in that city, which, he says, has been prevalent since last April. He reports that twenty cases have occurred, although the local authorities, following the ex- ample of the sultan, have shown much willingness in taking necessary. pre- ventlve steps. He says the disease has been of a mile type as compared with the epidemic in China and India, where the plague death rate reaches 80 per cent and more. i eS A dispatch from London says: .
