THE KAILWAY IX THE DMSKKT. Some Facta and Flfituvn Shewing How the Work la Done. London Time*„ ... On Feb. 14 the government decided to place in . the hands oi Messrs. Lucas & Aird the construction of tlio lino from Buakim to Berber. On the 15th that firm received their orders. Within a month of that date the material, plant and roll ing stock of every description, with staff, gangers and leading men'for the laying down and completion of upward of 100 miles of railway of four feet eight and one-half inches gauge, with fifty-six-pound steel rails, have been shipped to Suakim. amt the railway has been begun. If we consider the amount of transport required and supplied hv the government, and the material gathered together and shipped within four week: of the date of tlio order, we must admit that the speed used in carrying out the contract is without precedent. Up to the present time eighteen vessels have started from different ports for rfuakiro, each vessel containing staff, men, and material .sufficient to lay down its port ton of tuc mad. News has bemi received from Suakin that the construction of ihe line has been actually begun, and that the roolius sent, from India have arrived and begun to work with the native laborers already employed. It would bo impossible to giro here a complete list of the plaut and materials required for the 100 miles of railway thus shipped, aud of the outfit and other matters wan ten for Hie stair who have Vo superintend 1 lie- construction, and for tle rnen who have n> lay tlie rood. It will be seen that the contractors have been as thoughtful in small things ns in grantr that they have considered, not only the railway that is to be. laid, anti the "oiling stock that is-to move upon it, but also he minutest requirements for the health, comfit and defence of their men. Up to the lieginning of the week, then, there .ns Ik-cti shipped, as already stated, everything i squired for too laying down of 100 miles of rail•vay. In the first p'ate we may put down 10.000 tmt of ftftv-vix-pound steel mils for the main line ind 2.410 ton* oL smaller rails for the gauge line ind for the temporary lines to carry materials — filthe-e with fish plates' and fastenings complete. The sleepers necessary to carry these rails are more titan a quarter of a million, beside* 600 tons of steel sleepers for the I foot 6 inch.gauge line. There arc also twelve turntables. The rolling stock includes six fourwheel and ton six-wheel locomotives for the purge line, and a quantity of duplicate portions >f engines, in case of accident: and there are six cover? to protect the rnen from shot and heat. The passenger truffle will be conducted in six saloon and twenty six third-class carriages, with ten brake vans, while for storos and ammunition hre provided 250 Imilast trucks, to carry right tons each, and upward of 500 trolleys and wagons Fitted to the * foot B’. inch gauge-also is a double-tank water-car of a capacity of 1,000 gallows, and there are six single tanks on trolleys. Signal lovers, hand ami steam cranes, Hirer lees, portable ecginesv winding gea <r. boilers. steam pumps, artesian well pumps, galvanized iron tanka, water-cock#, pipe testing machines of every size, sort, capacity. horse power, ami gauge, have all been provided. Os wrought iron steam tubing, tested to 1.200 pounds a, square inch, for conveying water, there are in U over 161,000 feet —more than thirty miles--with diameters varying from four inches to three-fourths of an inch, and the fittings for there are complete. In the matter of lighting the following apparatus has been shipped. Six set* of electric light apparatus for six 1,000 candle lights, with six spare lamps, and throe spare lanterns to work en 4 feet 8$ inch gauge, trolleys and shears, crabs, ropes, and brackets. 500 yards of cable, all complete for lamps 4.000 feet carbons, wrought iron dustproof case with each set. Six sets of ditto, (fitted on trolleys 4 feetfcj in gauge), each of six length. Brush), and 800 yards of cable, with lamps, lanterns, carbons for 2.000 hours each lamp, poles, crabs, and appliances for lamps complete. Six sets of telegraphic apparatus (fire miles in each set.) with alphabetical instruments and telephones complete, two spare sets of telegraph and four spare sets of teiejdione matruuents. There are eleven water condensers capable of producing over 40,000 gallons a day; and the Ad- . mitralty supply the Zurich and another vessel for ondensing purposes, each witli apparatus and •ie hundred tanks of 500 gallons capacity. The Admiralty have supplied also two one-hundred-nd thirty-ton iron barges, and the contractors a ■ cam launch and six wooden pontoons, all of vhich will be for landing purposes. The vast supply of miscellaneous materials used in construction—Portland cement (350 tons) timlxn* balks, deals, struts, packings, scaffold poles, ropes, blocks, chains and sling chains—these thing* aro too numerous for detailed mention. For the laying and repair of plant two complete fitting shops, with all necessary appliances, fitters’, smiths', and plate layers’ tools, have been shipped. Aneroids, theodolites and other instruments of the engineering art are. of course, rot forgotten. Passing over all the rest of the items or a sim ilar nature, we come to the personal requirements of the men, and here it may bo interesting to set forth in full the outfit of a navvy as provided by the contractors: Three flannel shirts (colored), four pairs of worsted half hose, two pail's drawers (kersey ), one pea jacket, two pairs moleskin trousers, one blue jersey, two pairs laced boots, one silk necktie, one blueknitted cap. one soft felt hat, one pith helmet, one canvas bag, one gray blanket, one ground sheet, one mattress, one leather belt, two flannel bolts, cm* spinal pad, oue tin water bottle, one pair goggles, three iron plates (enameled), one set knife, fork and spoon, one set brushes (hair, clothes and shoel. one one-gallon water bottle, three irou basins (enameled), one iron mug (enuineled), three towels and one hook pot. The men will occupy huts in small companies, and may. if th*y please, meet in a large hut capable of holding 250 men. Two litters, completely fitted with .medicine and medical appliances, have been sent out by the St. John’s Ambulance Association for the treatment of the sick or wounded. .' FRENCH POLITICS.

ltritMii IYUS Form a Cabinet—The End of the Republic Predicted. Paris. April 5.—M. Henri Brisson has accepted the task es forming a Ministry. It is rumored that M. Brisson and M. de Freycinet have formed a coalition. M. Amouroux, Social ist. was elected deputy for St Kteune. to-day, by 1,000 . lujority over M Duehe, Opportuuist. The Comte de Paris has arrived at Naples to meet the Due de Chartres, with whom he will have a conference in regard to the proe>eet of the re establishment of a monarchy in France. Ths Gauloia, of Paris, predicts that the :'rench elections will show that the country has o confidence in the Republic, and desires a #tnrn tic/ a monarchical form of government. Many meetings of Anarchists were held in Pane and Lyons to day. All the speakers demanded the impeachment of the Ministry and conclusion of a treaty of with ('bins. CENTRAL AMERICAN TROUBLES. Secretary Whitney Decides to Send an Additional Force of Marines. Washington, April f>.—' The Secretary of the Navy, in view of the late dispatches regarding he troubles at Panama, and especially one from

Commander Kane, of the Galena, has decided to send a further force to the isthmus by the Acapulco. The following is Commander Kane’s dispatch, referred to above: ‘ Colon. April 4. 1885. “The vessels nowon their way to Aspinwall. together with the force sent by the Para, will be sufficient to open and guard the transit, if supported by the two ships at Panama. Without such support an extra force of 500 men will be required. Everything is quiet at Aspinwail, and ail American property is as well protected as my force will permit. 1 have 112 officers and men on shore. My command is safe and well. One foreigner was killed, so far as known. There are about one hundred Colombian government troops here, holding a large number of prisoners and rendering no assistance in preserving order. The railroad company is affording all possible relief to refugees, and has sent many out on the line of the road. The transit remains closed. One relief reached Panama hist night at great risk, having been stopped by the insurgents, and one person forcibly removed. The wires to Panama are continually leiiig cut” Secretary Whitney has sent the following dispatch *o President Houston, of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company: “liater dispatches indicate such a condition of things that 1 have concluded to send 250 more men to-inorrow. Can you take them?” A Man Who Thinks Barrios Is Mot Head. New York, April 5. — T. B, Bunting, late general of division and chief of artillery of Guatemala, says: “J wish to enter my protest as to the Acceptance as a fact of the report of the death of Gen. Barrios. I was killed precisely in the same manner in Salvador, during the war of 1876—i. e., on paper. Be sure that when the sword of Gen. Barrios is found on the field of battle, his right hand will be found firmly grasping it As Dr. Zoldivar is not at present practicing medicine, his certificate as to the death of General Barrios is not evidence of the fact. When General Barrios dies. Guatemala will have a laa; to mourn grrster than has ever happened to her before. History will do hitn more justice than is being done him now.” The Breeding-Ground of Ghogres Fever. JSetr lork Times. The burning of Aspinwail adds to the many gloomy memories of this haunted spot the same tragio interest which a similar conflagration bestowed ten years ago upon its sister town, Panama. A single journey between the two places will suffice to show what terrific obstacles the constructors of the Isthmus railway had to overcome. Man zan Lila island, upon which Aspinwall stands, lies so low that the great white ribs of the “skeleton lighthouse” are visible long before the little tow n is seen floating like a gay-colored leaf upon the shining waters. The railway to Panama, running like a tram line down the main street, passes, two and a half miles from the town, the wooded slope of “Monkey Hill,” the local cemetery. already sown thick with graves. This endless maze of swamp and thicket, through which (as deserting sailors know to their cost) the rough railway track forms the sole footpath, is the chosen home of the terrible “Chagros fever.” which is said to have takeno life for every “sleeper” on this forty-seven-mile railroad. The dark red pathways, flecking the rank greenness like trickling blood: the fool, black pools, half hidden by snaky mangroves that strike their fibrous roots deep into the spongy rottenness below: the matted thickets, from which wreaths of white mist slink sullenly away like detected murderers, form a ghastly picture. It is quite a relief when the train creeps, at length, over the swift, brown stream of the brood Chagree upon a long iron bridge,, the breaking of which by the rebels, had it been possible, would have effectually checked the advance of the government troops from Panama. A few alligators peer out with horny eyes from the thick, greasy water, but the two or three log cabins amid the wall of leaves on the further shore are the sole token of man’s presence. The native town of Gorgon—a group of little nests of cane and palm leaf—falls behind on the left, while on the right rises a bold ridge, seamed with the black scars of unsightly “clearings” and heaped with the charred corpses of fallen trees, amid which one mighty ceiba stands like the last warrior of a slaughtered tribe. Other quaint little Indian villages—Tiger Hill. Lion Hill, Buena Vista. Mamie—are left behiud ono by one, and at length you reach the “half way house” of Matachin, from the cane huts of whioh a crowd of native women (thatched like their own dwellings with huge straw hats) come with tempting proffers of white rolls, worthy of a Paris baker, and coffee that might shame any restaurant in Vienna or Constantinople. From this point onward your course is one endless zigzag among low sloping hills, one mass of matted boughs from rrowu to base. so closely are you shut in on every aide by theso walls of dark foilage that not till within half a mile of the rocky height crowned by the gray ramparts and clustering houses of Panama do you at length descry the broad sheen of the vast Pacific outspread beneath the glory of the setting sun FOREIGN MISCELLANY. • The (Irentwt Strike of Coal-Miners Known in England for Many Years. London, April s.—The colliery owners in Derbyshire and Staffordshire have resolved to joiu tlioso of Yorkshire in making a 10 per-cent, reduction in the wages of their miners. Tho miners in Yorkshire already on strike against this reduction, which went into operation in that county on April 1, number nearly 30,000. The Derby and Stafford mines will resist the reduction and go on strike. The mine owners in tho three counties are subscribing heavily to a mutual assistance fund to enable the owners to resist the strikers. The present strike is the greatest that has occurred for many years in Englaud. It threatens to last for many months, and will soon affect over 30,000 people who depend upon coal-mining for a living. -■ ■■ ———v— • Reservatione by the Sultan. London.

IN DUKA AND ILLINOIS. Easter Services and Coming Changes in Some of the Richmond Churches. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Richmond, Ind., April 5.—A fair day, admitting of donning Easter bonnets and other new spring raiment, no doubt had something to do with the very large attendance at all the churches to day, aa well as the special services and the exceptionally good music arranged for, especially at the Catholic, Episcopal and Lutheran churches. At the latter a large number of children received their first communion, there being forty four at St John’* and twenty-eight at St Paul’s and at St Paul’s Episcopal Church there were placed as companion pieces to the bronze altar cross, a memorial to the first wife of Dr. Wakefield, a pair of elegant vases in memory of his second daughter, Isabella Mary Wakefield, deceased. Rev. Dr. Barnes, formerly of the old Indiana Conference (South), but latterly of Kansas City, preached at Grace Methodist Church, to which pulpit he has in fact been transferred pending the forthcoming session of conference, although the probable acts of the conference are, in the meanwhile, ostensibly a sealed book. It is also an almost universally accepted fact that conference will make anew appointment for the First Methodist Church, to which Rev. Mr. Kemp was sent but ono year ago. • Indiana Notes. Luther G. Hager, of Terre Haute, an old and promineut citizen, died in that city on Saturday. The Southern Indiana Normal College has opened, with an attendance of over 200, which will probably reach 300. Prof. R. A. Ogg, of New Albany, has been elected president fop the ensuing year. Albert Adams, employed in a saw- mill in the southern part of Huntington county, while engaged in removing dust from under the saw, received severe cuts in his head from the saw. His recovery is believed to be impossible. Professor Newkirk, of the State University, has charged that the speech of Morey M. Dunlap, who has been selected for orator in the State contest, was taken almost entirely from A. D. White’s “Century Message,” and an investigation is to be made of the charge. Johnson Pyle, a farmer, and two of his hands, whose names ure not learned, together with Pyle's ten-year old son, were drowned in the Wabash river, about three miles from Merom. Tho three men, it is said, had been intoxicated, and left tho management of tho boat to the boy. A meeting of business men and citizens of Greenfield was held Saturday night, to take stops to secure the extension of the Cincinnati, Wabash & Michigan road to that place. Speeches were made in favor of the road, and John W. Ryan and W’illiam G. Scott were appointed to attend the annual meeting of the stockholders at Elkhart, on Wednesday, aud piresent the advantages of Greenfield, it is expected that final action by the company will be taken at the coming meeting. Illinois Items. Margaret Byrne, of Galena, an old resident, has died at the age of ninety. Richard Chappell’s house, near Jerseyville, burned. Loss, $0,000; insured for $2,700. Davie Cook, eighteen years old, while engaged in a performance on a trapeze iu the city schoolyard at Virginia, fell, striking on the back of his head, causing a fracture or concussion of the spinal column ami complete paralysis of the lower extremities, with but little hopes of recovery. The body of William Ren was found on the track of the Rock Island road, ueac LaSalle, yesterday morning. Ho had evidently been murdered, as the skull was crushed by a blunt instrument. The coroner's jury rendered a verdict according to the above facts. There is no clew to the murderer. C. D. Hoblitt, the banker who failed at Canton five months since, and who has been in Cincinnati under treatment for insanity, has been brought back and taken to Lewiston to be adjudged insane. Shortly after his arrival he was arrested by tho sheriff upon a capias charging him with embezzlement His bond was fixed at $4,000. Judge Boyd held that he could not prooeed with the inquiry as to Hoblitt's insanity until he had furnished the bond, and he was brought hack to (Canton. Boudsmen will be furnished by Monday and the trial proceeded with. There ia great excitement over the affair, many believing that Hoblitt is feigning insanity. Those who are in a position to know assert positively that the banker is insane. - ■ ~ THE MORMON CONFERENCE. Presidents Taylor and Cannon Write An Epistle on the Church’s Condition. ' Salt Lake, Utah, April s.—At the Mormon general conference, at Logan, this afternoon, a general epistle to the church was read by Presidents Taylor and Cannon. The epistle, refering to the present condition of affairs in the polygamy prosecution, says; “Men of puro lives will set examples worthy of the emuiatiou of all men, and whichjwill lead to works of righteousness. Citizens of the highest type of character have been selected as victims to vile persecutions, as though tho criminals of the lowest grade. The juries are selected tor the express purpose of convicting tnon prominent in the church. The old rule of jurisprudence that the accused shall be considered innocent until proved guilty is reversed, and the burden of proof rests upon the accused, in nearly every instance, judge and jury, equally with the prosecution, appearing to view him as guilty, and requiring him to furnish proofs, of his inuocence. Jurors were selected who are known enemios of the parties accused or of tho principle, involved in the trial. The result has been that a Mormon is always as safe in seeking justice of the infernal regions or of Algerian pirates, as in courts of such character. Indictments are found on the flimsiest evidence. The result has been that a reign of terror has prevailed and continues in Utah. Considering that they have no chance for a fair trial, men have considerep it better to avoid arrest until there is a prospect of receivil!*? impartial justice.” Tho epistle continues: “President Taylor remained at home until, perceiving a determination on the part of ©ertain'individval officers here to embarrass and harass every prominent man, and being informed of the threats against his liberty, he deemed it wise, under the circumstances, to withdraw forawhi e. Neither of the First PresiJ dents had been officially notified, or received any intimation that any court official process of any kind had been issued against them, but their residences were invaded and searched, and spotters, spies and deputies displayed zeal in their endeavors to ascertain the whereabout* of the leaders. The conclusion is that they wished to get them into their power. We are conscious of our innocence of all violations of tho laws of God or the Constitution, but if the laws enacted entrap us because of our belief in and practice of a revalaticn, God given, which a court jury shall decide, we desire that it, at least, shall be upon what the world would call evidence, substantial proof, not upon religious prejudice or a determination to convict, evidence or none. Should conviction follow in such a case, vfe should submit, as martyrs have done in every age when God had a people on earth, as a persecution inflicted on us for adherence to His laws. W* should at least have the same rights as burglars, thieves and murderers. If we are sinners, Abraham was also, and the ancient prophets. Jesus descended from a polygamic source, and so did many of God’s favorite children." Lying in State In a Saloon. K.aua City Journal. Possibly for the first time m the history of Kansas City the body of a deceased person lay in what might be termed “iu state” in a drinking saloon, while the bar of the counter was covered and the door-knob hung with crape. The body was that of Andrew Reddy, who had

been proprietor of the Little Parlor saloon, No. 15 East Missouri avenue, who was killed by jumping from a window in Chicago. The coffin lay directly in front of the bar and parallel to the bar-counter, and resting on the coffin waa a mass of white flowers. DAILY WEATHER BULLETIN. Indications.

MEN WHO DISAPPEAR. j 1 ■" Professional and Business Men Who Go Astray from Overwork. New York Correspondence Pittsburg Dispatch. Mr. C’onant belonged to a class which, taken in the larger sense, includes nearly all professional men—physicians, lawyers and clergymen, as well as journalists. This class is misnamed the intellectual class, for the work of merchants, bankers, inventors, builders, in fact all men who are required to incessantly use their judgment and designing faculties, is as strictly intellectual as that of the man who edits a newspaper, writes a poem or composes a sermon. Bankers and builders, merchants and master mechanics, break down as frequentiy as editors and preachers, the only difference being that , they are not so prominent, and consequently- not so much talked about I know a floor-walker in a great dry goods store whose mental organisation is exactly like that of certain clergymen and journalists, aud once iu a while he breaks down just as some preachers and editors do, and for the same reason. I know a contractor who is of pure mind and correct habits, but who once, after having sec ured a contract in which there was a sure little fortune, strayed from home and was not found and brought back until his family and business friends had given away to the cruelest suspicions as to the cause of his disappearance. What is the matter with these men? Well, the same trouble that drives thousand? of women to the madhouse, the invalid chamber, or untimely death. Their work is never done —not if they are |fit for their respective positions. A managing journalist may have the pleasantest position and most considerate employers in the work, but i • naper is never so good but he wants it bet lis competitors are as energetic as himself, and the doings of the day Will not arrange themselves according to the mental convenience of any man alive. So the editor falls into a rut-—that is, he gives his entire time and thoueht to His office hours may end dally at a stated time, but his work does not end with them; he fills one pocket with manuscripts another with books, takes a handful of newspapers and starts for home to ‘continue his daily routine. In the course of time he finds himself forgetful or sluggish of mind; then he consults either a physician or a bar-keeper, and swallows whatever is given him. With the relief thus temporarily obtained he goes on, imagining himself cured, but goon he finds himself obliged to return for stronger doses. In the course of time stimulants, no matter how honestly taken, cease to stimulate, for the simple reason that nothing is left to work upon. The man is used up, and the day comes when the tired mind, incapable of doing anything else, begins to turn upon and destroy itself, just as any other broken down machine always does. But where one editor fails in this way a score of other professional men follow suit John F. Finerty Howled Down. Chicago, Aprils.—Hon. John F. Finerty, exmember of Congress, and several other persons, attempted to speak at a political meeting, last night, in a rough portion of the Seventeenth ward, known as “Little Hell," but were howled down. The crowd began to throw rotten eggs, and several persons were hit, among them a lady. _ Prize-Fight with Hard Gloves. Milwaukee. Wis., April 5.—A prize-fight between Frank Ward and Joe Weidner, with hard gloves, for a purse of S3OO, was won in the fourth round by the former this afternoon.

A SOUTHERNER TALKS. An Unfavorable Opinion of Various Kinds of Northern Enterprise. William Arp, in Southern Home and Farm. Branson is everlastingly in debt, but ho don’t care. He says it stimulates his energies to be in debt and it makes him friends. He has got a poor farm and raises nubbin corn, and bumblebee cotton, but he squeezes along and lives on hope and trust and good nature. He can get credit when some other people can’t who are better able to pay, for lie talks so fair they can’t refuse him. He says he hasn’t beeu out of debt for twenty years and never expects to be. When they sue him he begs for time and pays a little, and laps over and jokes with the sheriff, and shindigs around and fixes it up some way. When he gets a few dollars he goes to Atlanta and talks with the boys and dines at the Kimball House and picks his teeth at the door as big as anybody. Last summer the boys invited him to go on a free excursion to Cincinnati, and he had a glorious time. He says they wined him and dineii him and they all had a love-feast-, and while the champagne lasted they hugged and kissed and slobbered all over one another, and a body would nave thought they had ail made friends forever and ever, but after the jubilee was over they went off to slanderin' us as usual and waved the bloody shirt, and we boys came home and went to hatin' of them all samce as before. Says he: . “Bill, I tell you what, they aro the curiosest people in the world. We aro* the best customers they have got and they get all we have one Vav or another. We buy their picture papers, and their dime novels, and paper collars, and patent medicines, and pasteboard shoes, and fly traps, ahd fire crackers and all their tomfooleries, and we go to all their circuses and monkey shows, and a body would think they would honey us up and be kind; but they cuss us and abuse us aud persecute us and we keep on trading with ’em and buy every doggon thing they put at us. We make sugar and sell it to ’em. and they adulterate it with sand and flour and glucose and. sell it back to us refined and crystalized a cent in the pound cheaper than they paid us for it, and get rich off of the difference. Why, they sell ns striped candy at 7 cents a pound that wan rondo out of Sugar that cost ’em 8. We make cotton-seed oil ami sell it to ’em at 40 cents a gallon, and they refine it and brand it olive oil and sell it back to us at 50 cents a pint. They adulterate coffee, and butter, and lard, and flour, and syrup, and baking powders, and black pepper, and everything else they can. They are a nation of adulterers. I saw a fellow in Atlanta sellin’ Yankee buggies for S4O a apiece and throwing in a set of harness, and our poor white folks and niggers were buying ’em like hot cakes; and the harness were made of leather shavings stitched onto pasteboard, and all blacked over and shined up, and they come to pieces in the first shower of rain that come along. You can’t take up a newspaper that ain’t full of swindlin’ medicines and advertisements. The ‘Rev. Joseph Inman. Station D, Bible House,’ has been running his card for twenty years, and here in this paper is ‘Manhood Lost and Restored,’and a ‘Startling Discovery,’and ‘Shiloh’s Consumption Cure,’ and ‘Why Will Ye Die,’ and ‘My Wife Has Been a Great Sufferer,’ and Wonder of tho World,' and ‘Worm Medicine,’ and ‘Pain Killer,’ and ‘Hub Punch,’ and ‘Whisker Dye,’ and ‘Prescription Free,’ aud ‘St. Jacobs Oil,’ and ‘Just Behold,’ and ‘Read Attentively,’ and pills by the million and billion and quintillion.and ‘s6o a week,' and ‘5777 a year,’ and all sorts of voltaic belts and pads for women’s backs and men’s bosoms, or vice versa, and liver medicine enough to make a small ocean, and I don’t know how many more of the plagued things in this one paper. Last night I started to read a whole column about the world coming to an end next July, and before the doggon thing quit it branched off into kidney medicine. Them fellers up there beat all creation for inventin’ ways to got onr money. They come along to my house with a big book full of beautiful pictures of apples and peaches *and all sorts of fruits, and they had samples in glass bottles, and we all had grafts put in, and we found out afterwards they put Mack Crawford’s limbs in my trees, and limbs off of my trees in Dr. Jones's trees, and so on and so forth, and never brought nary graft with ’em; and here they go and there they go, world without end, and if they can’t beat the world, the flesh and the devil all put together, then I’m mistaken, that’s all.” And Branson reached out his hand and said: “Now, Bill, give me a chaw of tobacco, for I’m tired talkin’ about them fellers. As Bob Toombs says, ‘it fatigues my indignation.’ ” OBJECT LESSONS IN MARRIAGE. A Pleasant Practice Peculiar to Baltimore People. Baltimore American. The Rev. Mr. Sneath, pastor of the Salem United Brethren, gave an association connected with his society an object lesson the other evening, introducing it by an address, in which he said that it was not intended to make fun of such a sacred thing as marriage, but simply to srive the young people some useful points about how to proceed at the ceremony. He said there were so many blunders made by persons who were embarrassed and ignorant of how to act that he thought the lesson a good one. At the meeting last week two persons had been selected as bride and groom, so as to make the necessary preparations. Mr. Sneath chose about a dozen ladies and gentlemen as friends of the bride,.and these retired to the ante room to march iu ahead of the pair. Four young ushers in ordinary visiting suits had been appointed. They wore little bunches of evergreen in the coat buttonholes. One young man acted as minister, and took his place at the pulpit rail The bride’s mother was a pretty young blonde, and the one acting as father a fresh-looking, healthy youth. The minister said none of the party had ever had any experience in marriage, and it was readily belieyed. All being in readiness, the organist began the wedding-march from “Lohengrin,” and the pair, preceded by two ushers and the company of friends, entered and moved up to the young minister, where the bridal couple halted. No marriage ceremony was performed, but Mr. Sneath explained in a simple, effective way, everything in reference to the ceremony. “In my experience as a clergyman,” he said‘ “it has often happened that the groom does not wait for the clergyman to finish his question before he blurts out with the T will.’ ” “That's because he is so anxions to have her for his wife,” said a young man uuder his breath. After the lesson the pair marched down the right aisle and up the left, with two ushers in advance, and took seats in a corner of the room, where a reception was held. Tho bride, a dazzlingly beautiful brunette, wore a pure white dress, en train, but there was no veil and no orange blossoms. In her march down the aisle she inarched so close to the American’s bachelor reporter that he fancied ho felt the glow from her cheek. When she accidentally turned her dark eye a little his heart gave a great throb, and ho was iustantly carried away to other days. The groom was a fine-looking blonde, and bore himself like a man. A young man said to the bride, as she passed him: “Don’t you wish it were reals ’ As her lips were parted a little dimple was rounded up in her cheek, her eyes sparkled and turned toward him, and the young man knew without a syllable what the answer would have been in words. The bride's mother kissed her and the groom very sweetly, but although the reception was a general one the young men held back for awhile, till a sensible young man of thirty, with a blonde moustache, stepped . forward and hissed the lady in earnest He enjoyed it and said so. The little smacks were extremely musical. The polite usher was rewarded also. “It sometimes happens,” said the minister, “as in this case, that the couple are in such a hurry to get away that the minister does not have time to salute the bride.” A laugh followed, but he did not get his kiss till later. It was a beautiful, simple, harmless and useful lesson, is the American's comment In tlie Rome of Buddhism* y??. New York Sue. An Indian explorer, known as the Pundit A—K-, in the employ of tba Indian Survey, has just returned from four years’ jonrneyings in Thibet, during which he spent a year in Lhasa, the capital of Thibet, and. the Rome of Buddhism. Before this traveler, only four Europeans in this century have visited Lhasa. Hue and Gabet, the French missionaries, were driven from tho city forty years ago, after living there a few months. Moore raft was killed after he left the city, and another traveler waa permitted to remain there only a few days. He says the city is crowded with temples, and has its Vatican in the monastery at Potola, where

the Dalai Lama lives, who is regarded as the incarnation of Buddha. It contains numerous images, one of which is seventy feet high. Dun* ing the festival in the middle of February, the Thibetans gathered to Lhasa from all over the country, to pay homage to all the gods and goddesses who are supposed to be present These ceremonies last about a month, at the end of which the citizens are considered to have bocome purified for another year.
