THUESDAY, JAHUAET 7, 1886.

A weole Illinoifl family has been driven to insanity by revival religion, Mrs. Wpedwortb has been laboring in Indianaffor along time, yet there is no report of attacks of lunacy—they called trances.

That yigoroug young territory Dexoia is demanding admission into the Union for its southern section as south Dakota. The remarkable and able memorial prepared for congfees is a striking commentary on the growlth of the great northwest. The number bf people in south Dakota is 203,463, or in all Dakota 416,263 with 82,000 fjunas. Despite a democratic opposition to the admission of this territory!as a state it is probable that the explicit demands of its people, fortified by as substantial claims as ever advanced by earliejr applicants, can not be resisted or set aside. It places the opponents in a dilemma, for admitted Dakota will throw a republican vote, or 'rejected, the act and precedent will plague their authoxt to their ipdoing.

Senator Hale's attack on the abuses shown in! the Maine appointments cannot be laughed away. The singular fact that the Maine appointments were given into the hands of Mr. Brown can reflect no credit on Neither of the wings of the dem ocratio pirty, one of which may be called Glevelan| and the other the bulk of the democracy. Mr. Yoorhees and others promptly repudiated Brown and his doings, but that does not destroy the force of Hale's onslaught. The misrepresentation which has led Mr. Cleveland to appoint so many unworthy officials throughout the country, may damn those whd have lied te Mr. Cleveland, but general retention of officials notoriously incompetent or corrupt must leave stigma upon the administration from the "chief to the hangers-on who are made the scapegoats for every mistake. It would seem that Mr. Cleveland is to be responsible only for what is pop «lar, while some Brown, Higgins or other obscurity for the sake of booty will father what is unpopular. Are we to judge the president by his intentions only and con demn his satellites for their works alone or shall we look at the results in all cases?

The going on strikes which seems to have become a fixed habit in this coun try might be extended in directions not yet thought of. The fever for bargains, the demand for goods at less than value, and the general catering for those thus afflictby many dealers, who owe or can owe for their stocks, is responsible for bankruptcies and much poorly paid labor. It may well be questioned if the policy is wise or. good which, while it cheapens goods, and quality too, at the same time drives out! of trade a multitude who can no longer live on the reduced profits of a small business. Which is better, one great establishment with an army of dependent employes, or a number of small establishments supporting an equal number of independent tradesmen? It is open question. Somewhat in the same line would be the question is it better to build up greater cities with our patronage or buy at home even at a higher price?

Very fe# will admit that it is wise to pay six cents for sugar, when it can be bought for five and a half, until they have found by experience that the quality is different in reality, though not in appearance. The cheapest is the best is the rule in practice although the best is the cheapest isi sensible at least in theory.

The poor are made poorer in buying by price instead of quaUty but the rich too often jbin in the demand for bargains at the expanse of quality. The demand is met by linen made of cotton, silk loaded with chemicals, zinc mixed with iron, bogus butter, paper-soled shoes, shoddy cloths, filled gold, short measure and light weight. Often the dealer most rigid In price and conservative in business ia the greatest siren when buying of others. L^ve and let live means a fair price for hbnest goods, but goods at coet Means shoddy at a bargain in the long run, b^nkiuptcy for small fry and low wages for many workers. The only strike practicable would be to recognise generosity, and reciprocate by giving trade to a liberal buyer and cutting the grasping one, by buying good articles only and joining Carlyle in his horror of sham and shoddy.

In reoent international matohes American riflemen have not acquitted themselves very creditably, and it is hoped that their selection of a standard target has been guided by the necessity of choosing a target that they ean occasionally hit.

If all that they had to do with moulding the methods of administration and directing the ship of state id political gales were known, the world would doubtless hold in higher respect the abilities and scope of the feminine mind, which we are accustomed to regard as contemplating only the follies of fashion and the duties of the household."

PHILADELPHIA.,

January 6.—"Did you

ever h^ar of the island of Tristan d'Acunha, in the South Atlantic?" asked Captain Fulton, of the bark Eadora, which is now discharging a cargo of sugar at one of the Delaware whpves, of a visitor to the bark yesterday, "You haven't, I suppose," he continued, "nor have many other people, except those that follow the sea, and yet it is a very 'interesting little island. Let me tell yoti about our •top there on this last trip. We were on our way to this port from Hoilo, Philip pine Islands, and began to runt short of potatoes when not far from Tristan d^cnnha. There was nothing very surprising about that, of coni&e bnt how do you suppose we got a new supply Why, when we got in sight of the island, we just hoisted up a little signal, part of a regklar code, meaning that we Wanted potatoes, and when we dropped anchor off shore, the islanders had a ton ready for us. "It is the people of the island, how* ever, who are especially interesting. They are all white, and are the descendants of a Corporal Glass, who watt one of the guard over Napoleon at St. Helena, and of two women from the Cape 01 Good Hope, who settled there early in the centufy. From these three have sprung 112 persons, now living, who make a very peculiar community. They cultivate die island, which is very fertile, and sell provisions to passing ships in return for many articles of food and of comfort which they cannot get otherwise. Just at present women's clothing is at a particularly high premium, ^nd the most of the women wear men's garments. They look funny enough, dressed in their husbands', fathers' ana brothers' trousers and jackets, and apparently enjoy the novelty of their clothing immensely. "But to return to our trip. When wis reached the Island three boatloads of men put off utader the direction of a son of the governor, and boarded the Eudora. They remained on board nearly seven hears, and told! us that in a few minutes after seeing our signal for potatoes the entire population were bnsy at work digging them upi for us. They had also killed some cattle and chickens, whi#h they brought for sale, and had some albatross" breasts aind skins which they offered in barter. The men appeared much pleased to see us, no ship having visited them before in some time, and made themselves at home on the bark. A little rum and tobacco, they said, would be particularly acceptable, as they are deprived of these articles. "There are at present fifteen families on the island, 8nd an equal distribution was ma4e among them of the clothing and other articles they got from as. Notwithstanding the awkward and illfitting men's garments in which they were dressed the women were strikingly handsome, with tall and well-rounded figures and tf the dark complexion common to tbd residents of the Cape of Good Hope. They largely outnumbered the men, and.are inclined- to be independent and to assert their rights Thirteen of these lovely creatures, all of marriageable age, are the daughters of the present governor, who is a son of the common ancestor, and wh* holds his office by virtue ,of being the oldest man on the island. "Tristan d'Acunha is at present suffering greatly from immense numbers of rats which were brought there several years ago in some bales of hay. They even invade the homes of the islanders, and have become so great a pest as to seriously threaten the future existence of the little settlement. Tristan d'Acunha includes Inaccessible and Nightingale islands, both of which are uninhabited. This isolated community is about 1,300 miles south of St. Helena and nearly midway between Cape Horn and the Cape of Good Hope. For years at a time the people never see a ship, and the coming of one is always considered as great event. The summit of the island a cone-shaped peak more than 8,000 feet high, and this great elevation makes it a mark for mariner^ to rate their chronometers »n4 to mark departures. The signal code which we gsed in making known our desire for potatoes has been lately adopted, and has proved great convenience. A Philadelphia ship, the Industry, commanded by Captain Fatton, visited the island in 1790 and left some men there, but they were afterward driven away by the English. "Did any of the women want to come away with us and see a country where there are more men and clothes Well I can't say tliey did. They are rather shy of strangers, and! didn't see th»t any of my men made a V^h.' J3ut I£ a man can't get a wife anywhere else I am sure he can get one there if he will go and settle down. I tell yon they are stunners —the women of Tristan d'Acanha."

A Definition Crank Turning. Bockville Tribune. There are no Africans in Indiana and very few negroes—probably not 2,000 in all. We have, however, about 37,000 people who had negro ancestors, and are of all shades, from white to nearly black, There is *no word in our language to specify these, the phrase "colored people" being very awkward, very ridiculous and somewhat intruthful, aa none of them were colored—they were born so. Hereafter we shall designate this class as Miscegenes.

only nine years, the "old commodore" having died in 1877 but in this' brief seriod he doubled it—from 10,(KM),000 or less, to $200,000,000, and now the speculators and seers of New York aie endavoriag to look into the future and conjecture what the Vanderbilt -property will amount to and whom it Will belong to a generation hence. If the three sons, Cornelius, William K. and Frederick W., were to invest if in real estate in New York sind then go to

Or if they were to invest it in dividend-paying securities, and refnnd the increment from year to year, they might live to see it increrse to $800,000,090, and a still further look into the in ture might reveal the'fourth generation of the' Vanderbilt family owning the whole Manhatlan island and two or three states besides. Bnt there is another and more probable view. The three "Vanderbilt boys" have

A Champion of Phonetic Spelling. Boston Post. Thirty years is a long time to brave proverty and probable failure, all because one happens to betieve in something which the world knows nothing about,- and perhaps c&rea lees. That, however^ is what Major Charles A. Story has done Major Story is a Chicagowi— a bustling, dark-eyed, quick-spfken man, long past the meridian of life, who has worked for the past Imogen yeais in a small, smoke-stained, weather-heaten, frame dwelling located on_ aback street, its front dopr Searing a plain board sign which reads: "United States Fonetio company." Major Story claims to have devised a system of spelling that will save time, labor and money that wi}l make the acquisi-

spelling. Such a system has long been needed, and no less authorities than Eranklin, Webster, Mueller Pitman nnd Gladstones have tried their ingfuuity upon it. Government aid flow to be sought in order to put the present system upon trial. As President Lincoln once told thewindy city clergyman, it is somewhat odd that this long-needed reform should tit last come to us, if it does come now, by Way of the modem and wicked eitv of Chicago. The popular impression is that the age of miracles has passed.

Philadelphia Times. Pittsburg is now talking about using natural gas aa a street-car motor. Application has been filed for a patent for a process of ex panding the gas by heat and storing it in airtight tanks under the seats of horse-cars in such away that the pressure will propel the tar. If natural gas can be stored in air-tight tanks and separated from all connection with the natural reseiroirs, it is only a qnestion of time when it will be transported outside of the nataral gas regions and sold as fnel. Should the supply hold out for this sort of thing a tank of natural gas may become as welcome a Christmas present for the poor as a ton of anthracite coat
