INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH. An Attempt was Made Last Sunday to Blow Up Dr. Ransom's Church in Chicago. Dr. Hansom Had Preached that Evening Against Plicy Shops. An examination of the church showed that the bomb had beeu placed on the stone doorstep at the southeast corner. When the explosion occurred the lower portion of the frame door was hlown inward across the small vestibule of the wall shattering the plaster and demolishing the collection baskets. The plaster statuette of Fred Douglass was struck by flying pieces of the baskets and the two hands shattered. Nearly every window in the south part of the auditorium was broken. It is estimated that the damage will be about $700 without counting the loss of the organ should it be broken. Dr. Ransom said: air. τοο- up and alp on, in air, re- to not τοο- at No arrangements have been made for repairing the damage. We have no money and will have to raise the necessary funds before the work can be done. The cost of the settlement work is large and our people poor. I do not mean to drop this crusade. The explosion may have been a warning, permanent demolition of the church not being intended, I do not care what it was. I am going on with the work and if I live until next Sunday I will preach against policy again. Meantime I shall not be idle. I hope to arouse our people—to stir them up as they have never been stirred before. They must be aroused to an appreciation of the great evil. That I am satisfied the white people of the city will aid us and we will be able to stamp out this giant evil which is even taking the pennies of our people. PROFIT IN THE GANE. It is estimated by men who have made a study of policy that the 'writers' take in $28,000 daily. The drawings are held and it is estimated that 146,000 persons play daily. Seventy members, theoretically are held in the wheels when the drawings are made. Twelve are withdrawn ter each of the morning drawings and thirteen in the afternoon. A table which shows the extent of the 'peor man's game' as the gamblers call it is as follows; Policy shops in Chicago, 1800. Total number of books operated, 5343. Companies controlled by one elique, 10. Number of plays daily by victims, 147,000. Gross proceeds daily, $28,000. Expense, $5000. Winnings, $5000. Paid for protection, $6000. Prefit to operators, $11,400. A book has just peen issued by the Atlanta University on the subject of the black man in the THE NEGRO field of labor ARTISAN. which will be read with interest by people who have given the Negro question attention. The book will furnish food for study and reflection for men who on all occasions speak of the Negro's unfitness for citizenship, and it will be a source of comfort to those citizens who believe despite some outward signs to the contrary and the rantings of rabid rhetoricians that the black man possesses some elements of progress. While the number of artisans among the Negroes is comparatively small, investigation has demonstrated that they are good workmen and that among a number of business concerns in the southern states, employing 2,500 skilled Negro laborers, "three-fourths are satisfied with these workmen and will continue to employ them." The author shows that the attitude of the trades unions teward the Negro has been a stumbling block in his progress. Despite the fact that the American Fed- eration of Labor once declared that it would receive all worthy men regardless their race. it still recognizes unions in which the color lin e is strictly drawn. The law against admitting negroes has been modified in the mining districts, where 40,000 of the 500,000 union members- But 500,000 other laborers are members of unions which will not admit negroes. The bodies outside the mining district which have opened their doors slightly to the negro have a membership of about 200,000, and of these only about 1'000 are negroes. Among the many tables contained in the book one of the most interesting shows the number of skilled negro laborers in 18 states. The most popular occupation, according to the statistical table, is 'steam railway employees,' of whom there are 45,080. Carpenters come next, with almost 21,000. Blacksmiths and wheelwrights, marble and stone cutters, barbers, bricklayers, boot and shoe makers and cotton mill operators follow in the order named. While the author points with pride to 357 patents of men who in spite of prejudice and organized opposition work at their trades, he does not lose sight of the fact that there is still much room for improvement among the negro artisans, and closes his work with this note of warning: "Deftly guided with the larger wisdom of men and deeper benevolence of great hearts, an outcome of good to all cannot be doubted. Muddled by half trained men and guided by selfish and sordid interests, and all the evils of industrial history may easily be repeated in the South — Colored Statsman. The Centennial Court held their annual installation at the Sons and Daughters of Charity hall last Thursday night.

The necessity for DOING something for the youth of Sedalia has long been apparent, and many plans for their salvation have been suggested, but no definite move has been made until within thptast few weeks. Sometimes ago Prof. W H. Houston, Rev. A. J. Adams, and Edw. L. J. Simpson, met and drew up a constitution that would be common standing ground for united action. They were to have met Friday organized into a permanent union to be known as The Sunday Alliance, the primary object of which is to bring under moral and religious influence the large number of youth of this city. The Alliance already promises to do effective work along the lines indicated.

A Memphis, Tenn. special says—the people—both white and black especially the ladies, have raised such a row about the Jim Crow law that was to go into effect May 5th. that street car companies have not tried to enforce the law. Our informan says that nothing has ever happened in Menphis to so consol date the white and colored people as this attempt to force that law. Economy. Neighbor--Your little Dicky seems very unwell; his cough is quite distressing. Don't you think he ought to have medical advice? Mrs. Flyntskyn—Well, yes, I suppose he ought; but, you see, the winter's coming on, and some of the other children are almost sure to get a bad cold or something, and it'll be almost as cheap to have the doctor in for two or three as to call him in for only one.—Ally Sloper. Disinterested. The man who had dropped in to see him was smoking a cheap cigar. "I think you will find it more comfortable," said Uncle Allen Sparks, pleasantly, "if you'll sit over there by that open window.

And then we can tell the public: the Negroes of Sedalia have one policeman 1 poundman one deputy-constable and two janitors. But only one just now until Mr. Albers and the countycourt fully make up their minds.

Letters from home are very welcome, but one doesn't get as much news in a hundred letters as he does in one issue of the home paper. And letters are so uncertain. You sometimes have to wait six months for a reply to your last one. But if you are a subscriber to the old home paper it comes to you regularly every week, rain or shine. You may be a little in arrears, but the editor sends the paper along with the hope that some day you will settle matters To the man that cannot visit home home every year or two the perusal of his home paper is almost as --- good as a trip to his boyhood scenes. He reads where the freckled faced girl who sat behind him at school was married to a city chap who has a lucrative position with a railway company probably a motorman; he is informed that bully of the school has been arrested for wife desertion and is incarcerated in the county bastile; he learns from his home paper that the girl he gave all his apples to at school is married, and tears comes to his eyes when he reads of the death of good old mother Brown, a friend and adviser in those days of long ago, Yee, the home paper does more for him than some frieuds.

Roughly speaking, says the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, if you take the salt out of the sea water, you deprive it of a thirtieth of its weight. On that basis one-thirtieth of the entire weight of all the sea water in the world is salt, and, as salt and water bulk about the same, we may estimate, also, that, by bulk, one-thirtieth of the huge mass of the ocean is pure salt.

In detecting a false gem from a gen+ nine, the X-ray, says’ an article on X-ray photography, in Leslie's Monthly, can be relied on with abso- vate certainty. Diamonds, as is well known, are pure carbon; and carbon, which is opaque to ordinary light, is transparent to the Roentgen light, while glass, which is transparent to ordinary light, is opaque to the Roent- gen ray. On an X-ray photograph of a real diamond nothing will show but the shadow of the gold setting. ‘An interesting experiment was made recently in watehing with the aid of an \cray machine and a fluoroseope, mo- tions carried on inside of an opaque body. A goose was fed with food mixed with subnitrate of bismuth salt, which absorbs the X-ray. The pas- sage of the food down the long neck of the goose could be plainly traced by tne moving shadow cast on the fluoroscope screen. He Never Talks, Gen.
