FORCED TO MARRY A NEGRO. A White Girl Subjected to Dis- grace by Her Mother. Little Rock, Ark., Feb. 26.—Sev- eral days ago Mrs. Mattie Rhodes, a widow, accompanied by her three children, from Newport and took up her abode at Argenta, opposite the city. Elizabeth, the eldest, a child of about 15 years, was blessed with considerable personal beauty and more than average intelligence. She was a blonde of that peculiar type that instantly arrests the attention of gentlemen of dark complexion. It soon became apparent to pec- ple in the neighborhood in which Mrs. Rhodes was living that Eliza- beth’s most persistent suitor was a big black negro named Frank Isom. The girl detested the negro but for some unaccountable reason her mother favored tne suit and did all within her power to induce her to marry Isom. After exhausting her stock of gentler methods the moth- er emphatically told her daughter she must marry the negre. Tearful protests were of no avail. The li- cense was procured by 2 man who appeared at the County Clerk’s of- fice and represented that he was the girl’s father. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Paul G. Bod a colored preacher of Little Rock. Not until to-day did the marriage become known. The people of Ar- genta are greatly excited and a search was instituted for the negro, but without success. He evidently has been warned and has skipped for parts unknown. STARVING IN KANSAS. Sad Story of Destitution in Ste- vens County. Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 25.—James §. Gregory of Houghton, Stevens county, Kas., arrived in the city to- day. Hecame for the purpose of sdliciting aid for the people of his county, who he says are in sore need of food, clothing and fuel. He has credentials from the commis sioners of Stevers county and near- ly all the county officials. Mr. Greg- ory says there are 75 families in Cleveland township, Stevens county, Kas., whose condition is becoming alarming. All are in frightfully and the women and children haye not suf- ficient clothing to protect them from the cold. When Mr. Gregory was spoken to in regard to the Gov- ernor’s actionin promising the des- titute people of Kansas aid and ask- destitute circumstances, WHOM DOES THE TARIFF HELP? Prosperous Institutions Have no Claim tor Its Assistance. The New York Tribune is so dis- gusted at the selfishness of New England iron men, who ask for free raw materials, that it loses sight of and exclaims: The petition of the iron manufac- turers is signed by an official of a nail mill built fifty-three years ago, and now virtually abandoned, by the lessee of an old mill built a quarter of a century ago, and by one large nail making concern, but it is added that “other leading representatives of the iron manufacturing interest” have sighed. The Tribune should always keep in mind that the tariff is maintained to support mills and factories that cannot support themselves. A fur- nace well located, a mill that is mak ing money has no claim to protec- tion. The tariff is medicine for the sick, for the weak, for the debilitat- ed, for the extravagant, for the reckless and improvident. It is for these classes, and not for the prosperous who are always clam- oring for assistance from the pub- lic treasury. No one would have any sympathy whatever for a strong vigorous, intelligent beggar; it is halt, the maimed, the abandoned, who touch our sympathies as they stand on the corners and collect their taxes. We are surprised that the Tribune should express any contempt for abandoned rail mills or that it should admit that, with a tariff, any mill in America has been abandoned. Asa matter of fact, the leading iron interests of New England declare that the tariff is a burden and not a benefit. The far- mers of the South and West declare that the tariff does not insure them prosperity and the laboring meu in- sist that it does not secure them constant employment and fair wag- es. Instead of denouncing these men as knaves and fools who do not un- derstand their business, why not ad- ure and return to a tariff for revenue only. Consumption 1s on the Increase. From recent statistics it appears that out the western states. The principal cause, it is stated, is due to neglect ot common Coughs and Colds. It is the duty ot all persons whether of delicate or robust health, to have e remedy at hand at ali times in cough crcold may be broken up betore it becomes seated.

Corn is good in its way but it does not supply wants. We must have clothing and other provisions or we will freeze or starve.” The Commercial Club considered Mr. Gregory’s appeal to night and subscribed $100 for the relief of the sufferers. A car-load of provis- ions and clothing will also be sent to Liberal to-morrow over the Rock Island. From Liberal the food and clething will be taken by wagon to those most in need} Mr. Gregory says that Martin and several other counties are also in need. The dinner given by Mr. Andrew Carnegie at Washington last night to President Harrison and his cabi- net and the delegates and officers of the International congress is pro- nounced by the press reports to have been the most elaborate and sumptuous affair ever witnessed at the national capitol. It rivaled in magnificence the historic banquet of Lucullus, and cast into the shade the feasts of Rome at the period of her meridian splendor. The treas- ures of art and nature were laid un- der contribution to embellish and and furnish forth the board, and nothing which limitless wealth could obtain was wanting to enhance the rare luxury of the entertainment. It furnished one of the most impress- ive illustrations which the country has seen of the advantages of pro- tection to its chosen beneficaries, and revealed to the people the at. tractive features of the system which _isenabling them to build up and foster by payment of tribute a gild- | = ed caste which puis" to shame the | Westions as ballot reform, hoasted plutccracies of vanished | prohibition, and ges.—Kansas City Star. ib i Des Moines, Io., Feb. 26—To- morrow at about the hour of three o'clock Gov. Larrabee, the last of a long line of Republican executives, will step aside for Uncle Horace Boies, a democrat of the new school. It was 40 oears ago in December last, since Senator Hempstead, the last democratic governor was inaug- urated at the old Capitol of Iowa City. The event is therefore wor- thy attention and the Hawkeye de- mocracy have prepared themselves for a great occasion. The city to- night is overflowing with people, and thousands more are expected on the morning trains. Chicago sends a contingent of 270 of the Cook County Democratic club and St. Joe will report with 150. These will be the only organized visitors from abroad, but democrats will come singly, in pairs and battalions from every nook, hamlet and city in the state. Those who voted 40 years with- out casting a ballot for a single win- ning man until the last election will have a front rank in the procession to-morrow and mingle their cheers with the lustier notes of the young democracy. The inauguration ceremonies will take place in the rotunda of the cap- itol. Gov Boies will stand upon the first landing of the grand _stair- way and looking west will face a great concousre of people. The oath of office will be admin- | istered by Chief Justice Rothrock, | and the inaugural address will occu- | py about an hour for its delivery The governor is a vigorous thinker and his discussion of such public | tarrff, transportation is ikely to attract national attention. | The Wheat Growing Area. | Chicago, Feb. 25—The Farmers | ‘Review in its next issue will say: | “Thus far the reports of our corre- | spondents indicate with the excep \ tion of a few counties, that the con- dition of winter wheat averages high in all the states covered by our re- The only discouraging re- consiv, where general complaint is changeable weather during the past month.

Ogden, Utah, Feb. 26.—Heavy snow storms are reported north and west of here. The Oregon Short line from Grange to Pocatello and the entire length of the Utah & Northern railroad are completely blocked by drifting snow. Several work trains are stuck and the men refuse to face the blinding storm at any price. Denver, Feb. 26.—The south di- vision of the Denver & Rio Grande is again cut off by a snow blockade. Over two feet of snow fell during the last three days. Railroad cuts, where the snow reached above the tops of the coaches left from the last snow, have again been filled to overflowing by the high winds that have blown during the storm. Supt. Lyden says it is the worst storm on the San Juan range since the road was built. Marvelous Growth. Baltimore, Feb. 25.—Bishop R. 8. Foster, who is on his way to the conference at Cumberland March 5, im an address to the Methodist Episcopal ministers on the work of the chureh, said that 40 years ago the total of the Methodist Episcopalians numbered 700, 000 and now they number 5 millions. Then there were only three impor- tant educational institutions, while now there are a larger number con- nected with the denomination and the educational work among the col- ored population alone is greater than all the educational work of 40 years ago. Then he was pastor of the Mulberry Street church, New York city, and recsived $1,200 a year, the largest salary paid to any minister, bishop or book agent at that time. Bishop Foster has been a minis- ter fifty-three years. He is 72 years Catholics Suspended. Pittsfield, Mass., Feb. 25.—About a week ago in the regular course of the study of history, the class in the high school came to the subject of the reformation in Myers’ medi- wval history, which is considered very liberal by the school cammittee. Six scholars, children of Roman Catholics. refused to learn the pre- scribed lesson on religious ground. Principal Walsh told the pupils that they need not study that por- jtion of the book if their parents would send him a notice giving them permission to skip obnoxious chapters. A few days later he re- ceived a sort of a round robin doc- ument signed by the parents of the scholars, declaring their opposition to the study of-the history by their children. Walsh was not satisfied with this and demanded a personal note from each of the parents. This was refused and the suspension of the pupils followed. The school committee and Superintendant Day sustain the principal in his action. It is feared that considerable trouble and hard feeling will result in con- sequence. John Jacob Astor’s Will. At noon to-day Wm. Waldorf As- tor and Lawyer Southmayd entered the surrogate’s office with John Ja- cob Astor's will and filed a petition for its probate. The will covers on- ly two and a half sheets of parch- ment. By the terms of the will St. Luke's hospital receives $100,000, Metropolitan Museum of Arts, $50,- 000, the New York Cancer Hospital, $100,000, Astor Library, $450,000; Alexander Hamilton, $40,000, and James Simmons Armstrong, $30,- 000. All the residue and remainder | of his estate goes to his son Wm. | Waldorf Astor. The executors are! Wm. Waldorf Astor and Charles F./ Southmayd. I « Hiding its Light. The state of Missouri has tried harder to hide its light underga | bushel than any other state in the junion. Kansas has cried its wares to the world and homeseekers from the four corners of the earth have crowded into the Sunflower state. Its name is a household word and it has flourished and growm great Its immigration bureau, its papers and its people are loyal to the in- terests of the state and no chance to spread its fame is lost. North of us there is Dakota. It heralded its wealth of farming lands and mineral ores abroad and the tide of wealth and homeseekers rolled over its broad prairies in a perfect stream. In the south there is the state of Georgia. In a few years it cast off the lethargic sleep that enthralled many of the southern states, and now the name of Georgia, with its enterprising towns of Atlanta, Bir- mingham, Sheffield and a dozen others, is known as one of the most progressive states in the union. All this has been done by ceaselessly ag- itating in the press, in public meet- ings, through immigration bureaus, the advntages that Georgia has to offer to capital and labor. The state of Missouri is one of the richest states in the union. It has anempire of cheap farming lands. In the southwestern part of the state there are thousands of acres fallowing, that await the plughsheare and the hand of the husbandman. In the state there are mines of un- told wealth awaiting the pickaxe of the miner. Along its river bottoms there are virgin forests of timber awaiting the axe of the lumberman. Missouri needs, more than anything else, an awakening from its present easy going state. The tide of immi- gration is passing on every side of, the state and passing through the state. Missouri has more to offer than any commonwealth in the un- ion and should let the fact be known. —K. C. News. Weill and Happy. I take pleasure in submitting the following statement of facts that you may know the great benefit that has resulted from the use of Specific in the case of my little daughter, now ten years of age. The child, when two years of age, had a severe at- tack of scarlet fever, which left her with a shattered constitution. Among other evidences of impaired nutrition was what the doctors call- ed softening of the bones. In her 5th year she happened to aslight ac- cident which resulted in the disloca- tion of the hip joint, and, from the irritation thus set up, terrible ab- scesses of the hip ensued. The ab- scesses, despite the best medical treatment that could be obtained, remained for three years, discharg- ing continuously. At this time, through the influence of friends, I put her on your S. S.S. When this treatment was commenced the ab- scess was very large, having six perforations, pus discharging through them all. During this treat- ment several spicule of bone came out, and by the time she had finish- ed her fifth bottle the abscess had entirely healed, her appetite and general health had been restored; in short, she was well and happy.

Rea- soner, whose parents live near Wel- lington, was attacked to night short- ly after 8 o'clock in the suburbs, and being knocked down with a sandbag refused to surrender, and was shot. His two assailants got $25 and a gold watch. He was soonafterwards picked up unconscious. His recov- ery is said to be doubtful. Drunkenness or the Liquor Habi Positively Curea by administering Dr. Haines’ Golden Specific. It can be given in a cup of coffee or tea withovt the knowledge ot the person tak- ingit; is absalutely harmless and will ettect a permanent and speedy cure, whether the patient is a moderate drink- €r or an alcoholic wreck. Thousands of drunkards have been made temperate men who have taken Golden Specific in | their coffee without their knowledge, and to-day believe they quit drinking ot their own free will. It never fails. The sys tem once impregnated with the Specific it becomes an utter impossibility tor the | liquor appetite to exist. For tuil partic ulars, address GOLDEN SPECIFIC Race st.
