TO LAY A CORNER STONE. The Concordia Sund. Buiidins School to Have a ts Own. Tomorrow will be an important day in the history of the Sanday school of the Concordia Lutheran church, corner of 20th and G streets. At3o’clock in the afternoon the corner stone of the new chapel for the use of the Sunday school will be laid with impressive services, ‘The program for this service consists of sing- ing by the children and congregation, Scripture reading and prayer, after which the corner Stone will ve laid in the name of the trinne God by the pastor of the church in accordance with the rites of the Evangelical Lutheran church. An address will be delivered to the THE NEW STRUCTURE. The structure will be built of brick and @tone in the Gothic style of architecture. It will be 34 feet wide and 68 feet deep, with an annex 10x20 feet. A large double-flight stair- way leads through the vestibule into the audi- tory, which is so arranged that it can be sub- divided into class rooms by means of slidin, doors. windows will be adorned witl cathedral glass of special design, and great care has been given to the ventilation. The toilet rooms are located in the annex. A cellar under the entire building contains the heating Ce a ratus and storage rooms. _ It is expected that the work will be—which isin the hands of Jerome F. Sanner as builder—completed by March 1 next. Mr. C. A. Didden is the archi- tect. HISTORY OF THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. Although from 1853 the Rev. Dr. Samuel 3. Finckel, with Miss C. Dengler as his assistant, g=ve religious instructions every Sunday morn- ing to a class of catechumens, the organization of the Sunday school proper took place under his successor, the Rev. Gustav Rietz, in Novem- ber, 1869. The ladies and gentlemen who formed the first Concordia Sunday school teachers’ association, under the presidency of Pastor Rietz, and who are yet living. were the Misses C. Dengler, Clara Berger. Maria Soter (Mrs. A. Grupe) and Dora Slomann and the Messrs. F. Imhof, Henry Bauer. Albert Grape. At the beginning of the Sun day school the names of seven children were enrolled, a small number owing to the fact that a German Sunday sehool was an innovation in those days, the German children attending English Sunday schools of different denominations. But soon the attendance in- creased and the want of teachers made itself felt. The work was faithfully continued under the active labors of the pastor, who proved his atest success as a children’s friend and Sun- y school man. When Rev. Mr. Rietz left Concordia church in 1878 the roll numbered over two hundred children. Under Rev. Mr. Kratts’ pastorate, from 179 to 1882, the school continued about as before. The largest number of scholars enrolled since the time of the organization is reported under the superintendency of the Rev. Mr. L. H. Schneider (1892-87), when 300 children be- longed to the school. During his time the library was enlarged and the work of teaching was systematized. Since 1583, the beginning of the administration of the present superin- tendeut and pastor of the church, Rev. J. Mueller, the work of planning and adopting a constitution for the Sunday school and teachers’ association has been carried into effect. A mission Sunday school on Capitol Hill was started last spring and promises to be- come ® flourishing institution, being the first school of Kersoglhgen on the hill and the first ™ begun by any German congregation in the District. A JUBILEE FESTIVAL. This year, being the twentieth of the exist- ence of the school, was made memorable by a ju- bilee festival which took place on the 10th of No- vember and proved a great success, A medal was designed and struck as a souvenir for scholars and teachers. The greatest event in the history of the school will be the erection of the chapel in the rear of the old church on 20th street northwest. It had become a press- ing need to provide the children with a sepa- Fate buildiag affording the necessary room and comfort required by the progress of the times and adequate facilities for this most important work of the church. The congregation re- solved to begin with the erection of such a chapel at once ard appointed the following ntlemen as a building committee: Messrs, Sohn Walter, sr., John L. Vogt, Edw. F. Droop, John F. Vogt and Louis Kettler. The impressive ceremony of the laying of the corner stone will take place on Sunday, the 15th of December, 1889, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, God willing and weather permit- ting. The names of the present officers and teach- ers of Concordia Sunday school are: Rev. J. Mueller, superintendent; Edward W. Koch, vice superintendent; Frederick Imhof, treas- urer; Charles Bolsch, secretary; Harry Dunk- horst, librarian; C. Ockershausen, assistant librarian; Hermann Braatz, Oscar Vogt. Misses C.

From the New Orieans Times-Democrat, Mr. B. W. Cason, agent for the Pacific express and United States express companies, in an in- terview with a reporter, said: “I believe our companies have at last hit upon a plan which in the future will make impossible the robbing of express matter. All the cars are being sup- plied with stationary safes with combination locks, the combination of which the express messenger in the car will be kept im ignorance. Hereafter when money is shipped a responsible representative of the company here will go down to the train, de- posit the valuables and money in the safe, check it with the messenger and then secure the safe. When the train reaches Memphis, Chattanooga or any other point, another rep- resentative of the company, also acquainted with the combination. will visit the car and ascertain from the messenger if there are any valuables or mouey in the safe for that point. If answered in the affirmative be will open the safe and take oat the property. By this system if an express car is attacked by train robbers they will be compelled to blow open the safe, as no matter how much they might desire it the messenger will be unable to assist them.” eee — Robert Browning.

Written for Tre Evextne Star. A FALLEN MONARCH. Personal Reminiscences of Dom Pedro and His Every Day Life in Brazil. LONG REGARDED BY HIS SUBJECTS AS LAGGING SUPERFLUOUS ON THE STAGE—A BORED AND LONG SUFFERING MONARCH—THE EMPEROR'S maT. Dom Pedro Segundo was as great a curiosity among tie taonarchs of the earth as his em- pire was among the nations of America, For half a century he ruled over the fourteen mil- lion inhabitants of Brazil without establishing even the semblence of a party devoted to him- self or his dynasty, and when his subjects told him to “go,” the other day, he promptly went without a remonstrance or a murmur. He cared nothing for the privilege of wearing a crown, and being a good man, a sincere friend of Brazil, and a thorough philosopher, he has cheerfully acquiesced in the desires of his people to run their country in their own way. What was the use of making a fuas about it? The emperor was tolerated and nothing more. Foreigners would sometimes take off their hats as the imperial coach rambled through the Rio streets and the weary-looking, old face appeared at the window, but the Brazilians si ed their shoulders at such “freshness, lie wao presta para nada” He don't amount to anytiing—they would say: and just ws likely as not they would be holding his commission or wearing his uniform. AT THE THEATER. Dom Pedro was a constant theater goer and no event at the opera or (heater seemed natural without the familiar double row in the imperial box. On the right of the front row the em- peror, next him the empress, then the princess imperial, then her husband, Gaston d’ Orleans, Count d'Eu. These all were seated, while be- hind them stood the suite of the week, for the court officials served in rotation a week ata time. The emperor usually entered the box first, and hurried to his chair with a nod to the house. ‘The empress always gave a little bow as she took her seat. He looked always careworn; she invariably amixble, for she was indeed a good woman. ‘The princess imperial and her husband when they entered kissed the hands of both the old people before taking their own places. But never a sound or a sign from the audience that they so much as saw the rulers of the empire of the southern cross. |The emperor would follow the the opera closely, at rare intervals noddin: head in approval; once in a long while addre ing a word to the old empress by hus side When the funecao was over the whole part hurried to their coaches and ciattered otf, without a sign of recognition from a single soul. On “days of grand gala,” such as his birthday and the day of constitution, the emperor would rig himself out in uniform, and then the im- perial party would occupy an immense special box in the middle of the first tier, facing the stage, with a greatly increased suite around them. On such oceastous the house was really & brilliant scene, as it held all the beauty and chivalry of Brazil in their Sunday clothes. At a given moment the chief of police would rise in his own box, and, looking exceed- ingly uncomfortable, would shout out, “Viva then, after a moment's Dom Pedro Segundo? iva a Constitutio;” and again, “Vi Sometimes half a dozen voices would feebly answer, *Viva;” generally there was a dead silence. No wonder that the un- fortunate official whose designated duty it was to thus make redestined fiasco, told the writer that he “felt like an idiot” when he rose in his place. He certainly looked like one. THE “IMPERIAL PURPLE” was rarely donned except when the emperor would read the speech from the throne in per- son at the opening or closing of parliament. ‘The “purple” consisted, in fact, of a gorgeously jaced green coat and waistcoat, yellow satin small clothes and tlest-colored hose of silk, all overshadowed by a wonderful cloak of brilliant toucan feathers. One of the imperial lexs was a little wrong, and this marred the effect some- what; but had Dom Pepro stood at his full height and held his head up, he would have looked every inch the emperor. As it was, he looked bored to death and rather disgusted at himself and everybody ebout him. HIS LEVEES. All sorts and conditions of men metat the emperor's levees, but he received all who came, Oue of the most regular attendants was a big buck negro, as black as soot, who claimed to be an African king and styled himself Oba IL He was an ensign, or had been, in the Brazilian army, and lived an extremely hilarious life by levying coutribations on the many slaves in tio who were of African birth. Arrayed in his old uniform, or in an ample suit of black broadcloth, with eyeglasses straddling his huge flat nose, Oba II won!d elbow his way through the crowd and make straight for his royal brother ot Brazil. He was quite as tall as the emperor, and a stranger pair was never seen than the coul-black negro grasping the hand of the cotton-white Brazanea. Stil the good old emperor endured this 5 year after year, and pre| in the year, until one di: of bad cognac, his Airic . familiar even for long-suffering Dom Pedro, and he was thereafter denied entrance, HIS TRUSTED FRIEND, It was often said by those who were in con- tact with the emperor, that he had but one true friend, the Viconde do Bone Retiro. This is doubtless unjust to others, if it is meant to cast doubt on their fidelity to the emperor, but no one denied that Dom Pedro trusted and contidedin “Jose Pereria” as he did in noone else. Their friendship dated from their boy- hood. and when the emperor wanted to get complete relief from care and freedom from ler an overload ty became too importunity he would slip quietly up to Bone Retiro’s modest little cottage in the beautiful forest of Fijuca and pass the day with his old friend and com- panton, On such rare occasions we would sometimes, on returning from our rides through those lovely woods, mect the pair of old men strolling along one of the more secluded paths, the tall pale-faced ruler “theeing” and “thou- ing” the stumpy dark-skinned counsellor aud both ready with a pleasant “good evening, gen- tleman,” as we rode by. Nowand then the em- peror would send word in advance to the vis- count and ask bim to invite some few people he liked to take lunch at thi ttage, and ie was Just as likely to name foreigners as natives. On such occasions he himself would set the ex- ample of unconyentionality and no one not in- formed would suppose the pleasant, grave old gentleman to be the ruler of a great empire, PETROPOLIS, But the place Dom Pedro's soul most loved was Petropolis, his summer home, among the noble Organ mountains. Here he was merely a Brazilian gentleman of leisure—or tried hard to be, for the cares of state gave him little respite. It was his great delight to walk along the broad streets of that charming little city, usually walking in the middle of the roadway and stopping to chat with anybody or every- body. He knew the names of ail the old Ger- man settlers and asked them of their welfare; he asked some joking —— of the ladies on the sidewalks or at their windows, or would talk with some business man of the gossij “down in the court,” as Kio is called. Half a dozen times in his promenade he would stop to caress some child or other and ask about its “papae” and “mamae,” and again he would call to a foreign minister and walk along chatting with him. When the evening train arrived from Rio the old gentleman was in- variably at the station to see the new arrivals, and his grectings to the throng of idle loungers on the platform were always the same. During the carnival of festivities, which in Brazil take the form of dousing the re-by with water in various ways, Dom Pedro would take his ducking with the rest—and return it with interest. The writer was one day ina party of ladies and men who were hold- ing the balcony of # hall against all comers and the emperor was standing near by, an amused spectator of the drenching battle. One of our party threw a big rubber toy balloon filled with scented water at an assailant and it missed its mark and broke squarely on the im- perial hat, There was an awful pause for # moment, for several of the party belonged to the foreign legations and it was an awkward thing for them to do, but the emperor called out cheeriiy, as he swabbed off his face, “It makes no difference, gentlemen,” and everybody felt at ease. It didn't make much, as a matter of fact, for the emperor wore almost as shock- ingly bad hats as Senator Evarts himself. Yith Dom ‘Asap ana and acts as monarch we bave nothing to in this article, but he was nobody's fool and nothing occurred in his empire that he didn't know Cnerg' no Lakin soon at that, He knew all about republ can movement, its weakuess and its strength, but beyond trying to bring the leaders of that party over to side of ae ens ae offering them inducements of one kind or another he did not work actively against it, “What must be will be” was his faith and he lived up to it, One day the walking with o wat ge it the rho stop; we mei emperor, w! us, “How there, Jose; what ix this I hee!

The old but whether the sadness apparent in his m ner was due to a passing thought, or to his habitual weariness, it was not easy to decide. Asenator of the empire, in talking to the writer about Dom Pedro, once said: *“The chief trouble the emperor has to contend with is that he is too good for us Brazilians.” It would not become a foreigner to assent to this proposi- tion; but it cannot be disputed that his people failed wholly to appreciate his best side, and dwelt chiefly on his weaknesses and those of his political acts with which they did not agree. To outsiders who were brought in contact with both the emperor and his subjects, however, it seemed pos- sible to combine sincere respect for the former with hearty liking for the latter; and many a friend of ths new republic while welcoming the gold and green flag among the ensigns of free America, may be allowed to doubt whether any more kindly gentleman, patient public servant, or devoted lover of Brazil, will ever govern its destinies than was the old man who now takes his place among the *‘kings in exile” as Dom Pe- dro d’Alcantara, ex-emperor of the Brazilians, Avan Bop Janpine. —-0ee “Garrison” and ‘‘The Musty Past.” To the Editor of Tue Eventxo Stan: I noticed in a recent issue of Tar Star acom- munication from ‘Historicus” and in the Post one from Hon. Horatio King vehemently pro- testing under the above headings against plac- ing the name of “Garrison” on one of the school buildings of this city. These protests were based on the alleged intidelity of Garrison and his sympathy with “southern secessionists” and the destructive ‘anarchists, now held in hor- ror by American citizens.” * Garrison's writings and speeches were char- acterized by the clearest and tersest English, the meaning of which no one need mistake; and ze no man was so generally misrepresent: d, t may be permitted to one who did not hold his theories, but had the opportunity to hear what he said and read what he wrote, to cor- rect a manifest error as to his position. As to his infidelity it may be said that he was a pro- fouud and uncompromising believer in Christ's doctrine of non-resistance £ a man smite thee on one cheek turn to him the other also.” He believed also in the inviolable sanctity of human life and that under no circumstances of Ere or public self-defense wes the taking of ife justitiable. Ihave neard him say “that to break the shackles of every slave he would not take the life of asingle slaveholder.” This may seem like an immoral idolatry of human life; but his imperious couscience held him ever true to it. Ile did not believe in government, because an army and navy must always turk behind gov- ernments to enforce their decrees. He be- ved in educating men to justice and human- nd in controlling them by appealing to principles and not by force. “Slavery in every form,” he sai be abolished by each and e y individual withdrawing from all practices, institutions and governments, whether of church or state, that sustain it.” lt is easy to believe that Garrison would have gladly corresponded with slaveholders as to the best means of abolishing slavery and all union with it, and have urged them to that end by this method, but that he would, as charged by the correspondents above referred to, have plotted with them and conspired with them to form a ‘more perfect union with “can only slavery” is the wildest absurdity and the bit- terest calumny. Slavery, in his view, was the “sum of all villainies.” It was, in the opinion of all parties, recognized in the Constitution of the United States andthe fugitive slave laws pursuant thereto, and he therefore surrendered his zenship rather than bind himself to obey their requirements. The compact which every citizen entered into to sustain slavery was “a covenant with death and an agreement with hell.” He therefore in his own person dissolved the Union and urged others to do likewise. But the attempt, for this reason, to classify him with the southern disunionists who declared war to perpetuate slavery and to make “the in- famous Garrisonian party,” composed of afew hundred amiable non-resistants, responsible for their rebellion is, to say the least of it. a novel construction of his position. The Garri- sonian pi «in this view, is the poor ** 50 cow” that kicked over the lamp that kindled the contlagration that threatened to overcome our whole American civilization. When thet conflagration started at the close of Buchanan's administration the whole Ameri- can people saw what wasclear to Garrison forty years before—that we had indeed made a “cove- nant with death and a league with hell.” ‘Those who have not yet read the history of the re- bellion, or have read it backward, may eal! him “infatous and infidel,” but others will s: as thousands of citizens of this city do today, that he +till stands and with every year will more clearly stand as the purest philosopher of reform this country has ever seen, whose char- acter our children should be taught to revere, and if there can be found marble white enongh to make the tablet and gold pure enough to inscribe his name, it should be placed on every school building of the land rather than that for such reasons it should be withheld from one, M.G.K. aera es EX-PRIEST BOYLE’S APPEAL. Seeking to Reverse the Verdict Which Sentenced Him to Hang. Aspecial dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from Raleigh, N. C., says the famous case of James Joseph Boyle, ex-priest of the Roman Catholic church, now under sentence of death for assault upon Miss Geneva Whittaker, organist of the Catholic church of the Sacred Heart at Raleigh, of which he was assistant pastor, came before the supreme court of North Carolina yesterday on appeal. It will be remembered that Mr. Boyle was convicted on Saturday, October 5, in the Raleigh court, and sentenced to be hanged November 29. The prisoner’s counsel took an appeal, which operated as a stay of execution. The assault is alleged to have occurred on May 11, 1889, in the pastor's sitting room, on the second floor of the pastoral residence, adjoin- ing the church. Miss Whittaker is described asa delicate, undeveloped girl of seventeen years. Mr. Boyle isa tall, fine-looking man of thirty years, eloquent and accomplished, but of a too convivial turn. He was born in Luzerne county, Pa., and has lived in New Mexico, St. Louis and in the state of Illinois. He was edu- cated at St. Francis Xavier's college, New York city, and entered the priesthood in 1883, His only defense was that Miss Whittaker made ad- vances to him and led him astray. Reading the record occupied most of the ses- sion yesterday. Comments on the evideuce and citations of authorities were made by Mr. 8. F. Mordecai, counsel for the prisoner. Mr. Thomas C. Fuller, chiet counsel for the de- fense, will make astrong argument for Boyle, Mr. Theodore F. Davidson, attorney general of North Carolina, and Thos. P. Devereux appear for the state. Richard H. Battle will close for the defense, replying to the state. The prisoner files several exceptions, the principal ones being as to selection of the jury and to the fact that the question asked two jurymen by pris- oner's counsel, “Have you a present opinion that the ane is guilty?” was not allowed by the cour! The argument was concluded yesterday. Counsel for the defendant alleged there was evidence to show that Miss Whittaker did not make any outcry; that she concealed the injury a considerable time after she had oprcesaniy to make complaint, and that the place where the assault was alleged to have been committed was a public place in the central part of Raleigh and in daytime. ———_+o0—-___ Found a Pot of Gold.

The chie’ was informed by the commission that while they had no power to enter a decided protest st these encroachments they felt satisfied that the government would protect them and all indi without authority would not be allowed to remaln or retain title to any land within their reservation. ———-e0 Irish as Well as English.

TF OGonney, otto Spencer Balfour, ' “GARRISON.” The Other Side of the Question. To the Filitor of Tux Evexrxe Stan: Tue Star of the 7th instant contains an anonymous communication signed “Histor- icus” protesting against the naming of one of our colored school buildings fer William Lloyd Garrison, the recognized leader of the anti-slavery movement and best friend the col- ored people of America ever had. Lam sorry to see that “Historicus” is sec- onded in his absurd demand by a man of the intelligence of Hon. Horatio King, who, ina letter published in last Sunday's Post, indorses all that “‘Historicus” says. It is hoped that the Commissioners, for their own sake, at least, as wellas for the credit of this District, will pay no attention to this absurd clamor. They cannot honor Garrison by naming a school house after him, but they can honor themselyes by such an act, He has taken his place in history as the most perfect specimen of manhood the nineteenth century has produced. The city of Boston, that mobbed } him’ in 1833, has at last come to her senses and honors herself by erecting a statue to his memory on her most fashionable boulevard. “GARRISON’S SHIBBOLETH.” When “‘Historicus” states that Mr. Garrison's “shibboleth” was “down with the church, the clergy and ail governments, courts and statute laws,” he states what is not true. In the declaration of sentim can anti-slavery society, orgat phia Decembcr 4. . 8 y delegates, representing eleven states, may be found the following. which was written by Mr. Garrison, then twenty-three years of age: With entire confidence in the overruling justice of God, we plant ourselves upon the declaration of our independence and the truth of Divine revelation, as upon the everlasting rock. Our trust for victory is solely in God. We may be personally defeated, but our prin- ciples never. Truth, justice, reason, humanity, must and will gloriously triumph. * * * Sab- mutting this decliration to the candid examina- | tion of the le of this country, and of the frienile of liber thronghout the world, we herevy affix our signatures to it, pledging our- selves that under the guidance and by the help of Almighty God we will do all that in us lies, consistently with this declaration of principles, to overthrow the most execrable system of slavery that has ever been upon earth, to deliver our land from its dea jliest curse, to wipe out the foulest stain all the riguts and privileges which be- to them as men and Americans, come what may to our persons, our interests, our reputations: whether we live to witness the tiwupaot liberty, justice and humanity, or perish untimely as martyrs in this great, benev- olent and holy cause.” ts ther hing in this langnage to justify “Historicus’” statem nt that Mr, Gurrison was opposed to all cir WE courts of law? On the contrary show that he was in fuvor of © pure aud holy, He was oppo: slavery church, as every man ought to be. The declaration of sentiment, a part of which Lhave quoted, was signed by John G. Whittier, the eminent poet, who was a member of the d who though then an editor of bility, insisted that Mr, Garrison should write the declaration, he regarding him as the best fitted for that task, Mr. Wiittier remained Mr. Garrison’s steadfast friend from that day until his death, when he wrote a beau- tifal hymn,which was sung at the faneral, clos- ing with the lines: “Go up and ont thy day well done, se woll fuitilied; Gov min-nts and does it not rthing just, to a pro- triumph ‘0 holier tasks tha willed, Concerning the beginning of his career an- other great poet, James Russell Lowell, our late minister to England, wrote: “In a small chamber friendless and unseen, Tuiled o'er his ty) one poor woilearned young man; ‘The piace was dark, unturnitured and mean, ‘et there the freedom of 4 race began.” It seems, despite the opinions of “Historieus” and Mr. King, that Whittier and Lowell, two of our most eminent pocts, delight to honor Gar- rigon as the leader of the great anti-slavery movem: *-Historicns” says: ‘Why not name the school buildings for Lundy?” if he were better posted he would not ask such a question. tor he would know that Lundy was Garrison’s old partner in business, As far back as 1823, when Garrison was but eighteen years of age, he edited an anti-slavery paper in Bennington, Vermont, called The Jour- nal of the Times, which supported John Quincy Adans for the presidency. It was while edit- ing this paper that Benjamin Lundy, who was publishing a paper in Baltimore called The Genius of Emancipation, made a journey to Boston all the way by stage, aud from there on foot through deep snow to Bennington, where he persuaded Garrison to unite with bim in his Baltimore enterprise, which resulted in Garrison being thrown in jail, where he re- mained for forty-nine days, until Arthur Tap- pan of New York paid his fine and costs and set him at liberty. CLAY AND GARRISON. It is not generally known, but nevertheloss a fact, that Henry Clay, tbrough-the instru- mentality of John G. Whittier, who at that time was a great admirer of Clay, had inter- ested himself for Garrison, and was about to ue- complish his release, when Arthur Toppen forestalled his action by paying the entire tine and costs, It was while incarcerated in this Baltimore dungeon that Garrison composed and inscribed with a pencil onthe walls of his cell the two sonnets, entitled “The Guiltless Prisoner” and ‘Freedom of the Mind,” which the Rev. Dr. George B. Cheever pronounced sufficient to immortalize his name, if he had never done anything else, Garrison and Lundy continued fast friends until the latter’s death. It will no doubt be news to many to know that Garrison came very near starting his Liberator in Washington. In August, 1830, he issued a prospectus of a weekly paper to be published here called The Liberator, The proses: was finally abandoned and the paper rought out in Boston. CHARACTERISTICS OF GARRISON. There never was a man more misrepre- sented than Wm. Lloyd Garrison, There was nothing rash or cranky about him, A more clear-headed, cautious. conservative man never lived, He was socially a great favorite wherever he went. With a soul imbued with love alike for the slaveholder and the slave, as well as for all mankind, he placed at the head of his paper the motto: “Our coun- try Me the world; our countrymen are all man- ind.” He possessed a certain charm of manner that made him irresistible and won friends wherever he went. On one occasion he met a slaveholder in the cars who was so pleased with his manner that he said when they separated. “I will be pleased to see you and to hear you lecture at the south. It the abolitionists were all like you they would be welcome to our homes, but if we ever catch that Garrison there we will make quick work with him,” ‘My dear sir,” said Garrison, “Iam the man you so despise.” Then,” said the slaveholder, “if you are Garrison, I'am an abolitionist from this date.” I remember of hearing him say: “If I could strike the chains from every slave in the land I would not do it atthe sacrifice of honor and justice, or by doing a wrong toa single slave holder.” He re- garded the slave and his master as in ‘the soot, Soins to ruin together. He used to quote @ line ‘he laws of changeless justice bind, presser with opprest ‘SUre as sin aD. ‘An rif ‘They march to fate abreast ooo MUSIC IN HIS SOUL. Mr. Garrison was very fond of sacred music, He had a fine ear for music and a rich musical voice of great power, which enabled him to lead the singing at anti-slavery meetings, where he invariably, when ent, presided. He the father-inlaw of Henry Villard, resident of the Northern Pacific road, and numbered among bis list of friends such eminent men as Daniel O'Connell, John Stuart Mill, Wm. Howitt, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Theodore Parker, and such women as Harriet Martineau and Howitt. The following are the of We words fen- dell Phillips at his funeral, which, it would seem, were prophetic, as he has since gone join the friend he loved so well: og “Serene, fearless, marvel: with ae tew short comings.

An Idaho Man Here Working in the Interest of Statehood, Mr. Rounsevelle Wildman of the Idaho Statesman arrived in the city this week in the interest of statehood for Idaho, Mr. Wildman when seen by a Star reporter had some inter- esting things to say in regard to that territory. “Idaho,” said he, thoroughly in earnest in regard to the question of statehood, On the 4th of July last our coustitutional convention met at Boise City and formulated a constita- tion, which was submitted to the people on the 5th of November and was approved by a vote of 16,000 egainstan adverse vote of 1,000. It contains some radical features, viz: Three- fourths of a jury convict in criminal cases. The judiciary is elected by the legislature and the Edmunds-Tucker test oath is incorporated. ‘This iast clause, if sustained by the Supreme Court,crushes the power of the Mormon church in the territories forevermore. ‘The test oath disenfranchis: ractice, teach or abet polygamy, The Idaho legisiature bas gone further and placed the burden of proof on the Mormon who subscribes to the test oath and places him on probation for two years. If in that time he can prove his innoc i allowed to vote, which very few can di POPULATION AND WEALTH. “Idaho has a population of 120,000,” said Mr. Wildman. ‘Boise City. the pital, has ebout 5,000. Last year her output of silver and gold bul- lion amounted to $17,000,000. Her agricultural lands are greater than the comprised lands of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Ruode Island. Up to the time of the admission of the last four states there were but three states that ever came into the Union that had more population or resources, “The chi all persons who - vantage of statehood,” said Mr. Wildman, “‘is that it would remove the alien | investment law, which keeps English syndicates or foreign corporations from obtaining title to property in the territory, which law shuts out the investment of all large capital in mining. Then, of course, the opening of a new state brings in a flood of immigration, “in Idaho it seldom rains, All agricultural industries depend on irrigation. In southern Idaho the country is irrigated from the Boise and Spake rivers, Becise valley is 60 miles long and 2 to 4 miles wide, It is under mag- nificent cultivation, which is entirely the pro- duct of irrigation, The valley for richness, fertility and beauty is unrivaled, reminding one of the valley of the Connecticut and the famous Ridge road along the shores of Lake Ontario in Sew York. It is traversed with a roud of hard-packed shale, which is lined on either side with rows of Lombardy poplars. On both sides are beautiful ranches. Three crops a year ure raised, and a home market 1s found for their produce. Hay runs five tons to the acre, and land in the immediate neighborhood of Boise City rents to Chinese laborers for 25 peracre per year. The soil is inexhaustible, in places it is over 20 feet deep, and improves each year that water is put on it. AN IRRIGATION SCHEME. “In August the Senate irrigation committee, composed of Senators Stewart, Jones, Plumb and Reagan, visited the territory to collect | statistice in regard to the feasibility of the government expending money to irrigate the great Snake river basin. If this is done a canal about 300 miles in length will be con- structed at a cost of $3,000,000, opening up 5,000,000 acres of wonderfully rich land, capa- ble of supporting a population of 200,000 people. “The climate of Idaho is simply delightful the year around. In Boise City, for example, which is about 3.000 feet above the level of the sea, the thermometor runs up to 100 in the summer, but the thinness of the atmosphere prevents any bad effects. The nights are cool and we require about the same amountof clothing summer and winter. The winters are much like the winters of Washington city, with the exception that we have no or little rain, This state of affairs is due to the warm winds from the Pacific coast. “Our delegate in Congress, Fred T. Dubois, is confident of our early admission, and it is ex- pected that he will be put on the committee for the admission of territories.” MISS STOKES TO MARRY A BARON.

Among the passengers on the Umbria now on the way to New York city from Liverpool is Hugh Collin Gustave George Halkett, Baron Halkett, an attache of the London house of Rothchild, who is coming to America to spend the Christmas holidays as the guest of Mr. Anson Phelps Stokes in New York.

He is a scion of the ancient Fifeshire family of Hal- kett and is a descendant of Major Gen, Hal- kett, who was wounded at the battle of Water- loo.

The Halkett family seat is Freisdorfermuhlen in Hanover. Baron Halkett lives in England. Miss Stokes is a tall brunette. She is a grand- daughter of the late Isaac W. Phelps, who died leaving an estate of $6,000.00. on Hi kett's visit will be the second he has made to this country, He was at Newport in the sum- mer of 1583. ————+@9——_____ BUFFALO HUNTING. Some of the Perils of this Exciting Western Spert. ‘Theodore Roosevelt in St. Nicholas. My brother and cousin were on their way homeward. They were just mounting one of the long, low swells into which the prairie was brokgn when they heard a low, muttering, rumbling noise, like far-off thunder. It grew steadily louder and, not knowing what it meant, they hurried forward to the top of the rise. As they reached it they stopped short in terror and amazement, for before them the whole prairie was black with madly rushing buffaloes, The surprised hunters were far away from any broken ground or other place of refuge, while the vast herd of huge, plunging. mad- dened beasts was charging straight down on them not a quarter of a mile distant. Down they came!—thousands upon thousands, their front extending a mile in breadth, while the earth shook beneath their thunderous gallop, and as they came closer their shaggy frontlets loomed dimly through the colymns of dust thrown up from the dry soil, ‘Te two hunters knew that their only hope for life was to split the herd, which, though it had so broada front, was not very deep. If they failed they would inevitably be trampled to death. Waiting until the beasts were in close range they opened a rapid fire from their heavy breach-loading rifles, yelling at the top of their voices. Fora moment the result seemed doubt- ful. The line thundered steadily down on them; then it swayed violently, as two or three of the brutes immediately in their front fell beneath the bullets, while the neighbors made violent efforts to press off sideways. ‘Then a narrow wedge-shaped rift appeared in the line and widened as it came up closer, and the buffaloes, shrinking from their foes in front, strove desperately to edge away from the dangerous neighborhood. The shouts and shots were redoubled. The hunters were al- most choked by the cloud of dust, through which they could see the stream of dark huge bodies poses, within rifle len; on either side, and ina moment the i the two men were left alone on the plain, un- harmed, eee with their nerves terribly shaken, The -herd careered on toward the horizon, save five individuals who had been killed or disabled by the shots.
