10 THE EVENING STAR, . TUESDAY, MARCH 12, 1895—-TWELVE PAGES. BELGIAN LIFE AND ACTIVITIES An Interesting Lecture at the Columbian University by Pro’. J. H Core. Facts About the Industries and Cas- tomes of the People of the United States of Europe. “Belgian Life and Activities’ was the subject of an interesting lecture by Prof. J. H. Core, late commissioner general *o the international exposition at Antwerp, at Columbian University Hail yesterday af- ternoon. “The costume and general ap- pearance of the people of Belgium,” he sald, “differ very little, if any, from those of the neighboring countries. Women will be seen working in the fields, dogs taking the place of draught animals, and girls or grandmothers looking after the shops and stores. If one sojourns longer in this pro- Sressive and vigorous kingdom and studies the people and their institutions closely, many marked characteristics will become apparent. The working women will ap- pear as veritable helpmeets, the strug- gling dogs merely take the place of the More expensive horses, which the small tracts of land and short distances do not require, while the young and the old tak- ing the part of the shopkeepers is simply the following out of the general plan that each member of the family assist in bear- ing the family burdens. From this it must not be inferred that the women and the dogs alone do all the work. The men are either serving their time in the army or engaged with more arduous labor in fac- tory or shop, at the docks or in the mines. In general it requires the united and con- tinuous efforts of the entire household to keep itself together and successfully hold want at a distance. Belgium, with her single port and limited merchant marine, +must find within her own boundaries the wherewithal to support her 7,000,000 in- habitants. Fortunately nature has blessed the kingdom with rich mines, as well as fertile fields, and quite 300,000 persons find employment in the mining and the metal industries.” Her System of Industries Commended. The lecturer then entered upon a general description of the various industries, espe- cially minting,and took occasion to commend highly the system in vogue. It contained, he said, with special reference to the min- ing system, many features valuable as models and worthy of imitation. In Bel- gium each mine is called upon to yield up its product at the least expense and with the minimum of waste. The government, recognizing the life of each individual as dear and valuable to the state, enforces with great rigor laws regulating the ways in’ which mines must be worked, precau- tions which must be observed, defines the hours” service that can be demanded and forbids the compulsory child labor. “The owner in these days,” said the lecturer, “is compelled to look for larger dividends in improved machinery and perfected methods —his slaves now are means and methods, and engineers and foremen are the slave drivers.” This persistent seeking after the best devices ard the most efficient machin- ery has caused Belgium to be called the United States of Europe. The tendency in Belgium is toward a subdivision of hold- ings. The government takes a leading, active interest in the management of the principal industries, sacred from political interference. The dissemination of public information in regard to agriculture is in- trusted to officials who speak French and Flemish, who confer with the farmers in their districts in regard to the merits and applications of new ideas in agriculture. These officials practically take the place of newspapers. Plan of Supervision. General industries are looked after by a superior council, so are the mines, while a council of state specialists give advice in all matters looking toward the best in- terests of the various enterprises. By pre- cept, as well as by example, the doctrine is emphasized that no man lives to himself alene, and that the wealth of the kingdom is but the aggregate wealth of the in- dividual subjects, and that the former can prosper only as the latter thrives.. The English are generally regarded as models of thrift and industry, but the annual ex- ports of England amount to only $35 for each inhabitant, while those of Belgium amount to $ for each inhabitant. The products of the globe pass through Bel- gium, destined for all the countries of Europe, and Antwerp is a merchandise clearing house for the entire world. Pros- perity so great and traffic so varied fall to Belgium's let mainly because of the magnificent system of docks at Antwerp, her only port. These docks, improved by Napoleon, are excelled nowhere in the world. The docks and all their appliances belong to the state, and hence, said Mr. Core, are not couducted on selfish princi- ples or subject to exorbitant charges. Bel- gians place Antwerp third in the list of ports of the world, following only New York and London. Germans, however, claim third place for Hamburg, while the French claim Havre for the fourth. Con- sidering the amount of shipping handled for each inhabitant, however, Antwerp, the lecturer said, leads the world. Labor Organizations, The railroad, mining and labor systems of Belgium were briefly described by the tec- turer, who also told of the methods and advantages of the “nation: r labor organ- izations. “‘Along-every line of activity,” he said, “and in all branches of industry, determined efforts to produce the maxi- mum and waste the minimum have been the potent factors which have placed Bel- gium in the advance guard of nations.” Flag poles are uttached to nearly every house in Antwerp and they are decorated whenever anybody in their vicinity is the recipienf of any honor, no maiter its char- acter. The neighborhood takes this means of showing its pride in its neighbor. What- ever is cause for rejoicing in an individua member is also cause for rejoicing on the part of all his neighbors. Thus the people share in their neighbor's joys, as well as in his sorrows. “Stretched across the street at the beginning and at the end of each fa- vored square,” said the lecturer, “are large signs bearing the name of the fortunate person and what he has accomplished. In this observance, democratic principles ap- pear to prevail, for if the feted one be a butcher’s son, the baker's daughter, cr even the candlestick maker himself, the rejoicing seems none the less hearty than if 1t were a member of a nobleman’s fam- ily, nor are the emblems of joy removed any sooner because of the recipient's hum- ble origin. Since the lightning of honor may strike any home, its occupant can count upon his neighbor's co-operation ani mutual glorification. Thus it is that all the houses in Antwerp have one or more flagstaffs, whose use is not discontinued until the owrer feels that he has recipro- cated all his flag attentions and is square with his neighbors. The invitation does not read: ‘I have found that which was lost; come and cine with me,’ but ‘I have been honored; please hang out your flag.’ * ——— Moonshining Increases. From the Savannah News. ‘The United States marshal Is busy with the monthly report of seizures made by his department during February. In the Geor- gia district there have been made thirty- eight seizures, thirty of which were illicit stills, and the remainder contraband liquor in wagons on the way to market. In the Alabama district there were seizures made of twenty-six illicit distillerie: For the past six months there has been an extraordinary increase in the number of seizures made and the report for February shows a greater increase than in any pre- vious month. The probable cause for this increase is largely attributed to the enor- mous corn crop of 1894. Another peculiar- ity is that the stills found, though crude in construction, but answering every pur- pose of the moonshiners, are all larger than those formerly destroyed. The largest number of seizures made in a one county was that of Cherokee county,. of which Canton, the early Mome of ex-tiov- ernor Brown, is the county seat. This seems strange for the reason that it is within only a couple of hours’ ride of At- lanta, the headquarters of the revenue service in the districis of Georgia and Ala- bama and from which the authority for all the raids emanate. Whatever may be the cause of bli Bair may be restored to its original Use of that potent remedy, Hall's Ve Hair Renewer. SUBURBAN NEWS ANACOSTIA. There were two other arrests yesterday, growing out of the shooting in Hillsdale of Reuben Foster. The evening following the affair a crowd of colored peopie from Hills- dale walked along Monroe street of Ana- cotia, and are alleged to have been very disorderly. The result of one of the crowds was the breaking of a window of Thomas Reardon's cigar store, and the resut of another crowd was the assaulting of an in- offensive employe of the asylum for the in- sane. The police were put on the case upon information being received, and yes- terday arrested William Bryant and Wil- liam Chew, beth colored. Both of these men were to participate in the mass meet- ing held in Hillsdale last night, and Bryant not having the collateral sent for Lawyer Moss, who secured a bendsman, and he was released. Chew furnished $10 col- lateral, and was also released. The new font for St. Teresa’s Catholic Church will soon be put in place. Rev. T. B. Hughes, the rector, says that the font will be of terra cotta, and is being made in Holland. : — LANGDO) Mrs. A. M. Ruger of Elmira, N. Y., is visiting at the homes of Mr. I. J.

A Sunday school conference of workers met at the Presbyterian Church last night, irrespective of denomination, to make ar- rangements for a house-to-house canvass of Prince George’s county and the holding of conventions and institutes at various points in the county preceding an annual convention to be held in midsummer or the fall. A general discussion was partici- pated in by representatives of Sunday schools from Laurel, Charlton Heights, Branchville and Hyattsville, and Rev. W. B. Dorsey and Rev. C. M. Livingston, re- spective pastors of the Methodist and Pres- byterian churches of this place. Mr. Frank B. Middleton presided and State Organizer G. H. Nock presented the needs of the work. Pledges: were given on behalf of various pastors and Sunday schools to maintain a. worker in the county for a number of months, beginning with April. The meeting was largely attended and much interest was manifested in the work. Golden Rule Lodge, No. 45, I. O. M., held an interesting and largely attended meet- ing at Mechanics’ Hall last evening. The first and third degrees were conferred upon several candidates. The officers of Lafay- ette and Capital lodges of Washington filled the chairs and conferred the degrees. Gilbert Walden, the southern elocutionist, entertained a large and appreciative au- dience at Grange Hall, Beltsville, last night with humorous, pathetic and dialect readings and-recitations, for the benefit of ae Southern Methodist Church of that lace. —$.—_ THE RICHMOND CONFERENCE.

Otis, charged with conspiring to violate the election registration laws, were found guilty In New York yesterday. The de- fendants were accused of being members of an organized gang, formed to register illegally in the twelfth assembly district. They were sentenced to one year each in state prison. As Otis was being led back to the penitentiary he attempted to es- cape. The court officers had some difficul- ty in getting him into the penitentiary. ——_ e+ Excitement in Frederick County. A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from Fredefick, Md., says: A white man, having a wife and one child, residing near New Market, Frederick county, narrowly escaped- lynching last evening at the hands of an infuriated negro man and his friends. It is said ‘that the white man had taken the colored man’s wife out riding in a buggy, and that the husband hearing of it went in pursuit of the white man with a party of his friends. He met the man and woman at a point called Willow Swamp, near New Market. Threats were made to lynch the white man, and they were only prevented from being carried into effect by the presence of the brother of the col- ored women, who succeeded in inducing the crowd not to injure the offending white man upon his promise to leave that section of the country, which it is stated he did. +e+—___—_. Forgot the Baby. From the Chicago Tribune. A rather amusing story is told on a young society matron. The daughter of wealthy and indulgent parents, she had never known a care until she assumed the responsibility of housekeeping at the time of her marriage a few years ago. She is now a mother. Her young sister was seen recently in a street car with a child in her arm: “Whose baby is that?" inquired a friend, who was rather astonished to see the young lady taking care of a child. - “Oh, it’s sister’s,” she replied. “She was at our house last night, and when she left for home forgot the baby. I am taking it to her no “But how did she forget her baby?” in- quired the surprised friend. i she knew she was forgetting something when shé left, but could not think what it was.” 2oo—___ Will Quit Journalism. “Mr. Astor, I am told,” writes Harold Frederick to the New York Times, from London, “intends winding up all three of his newspaper properties—the Pall Mall Gazette, Magazine and Budget—selling Cliveden and his London leases, and re- turning to America. It fs impossible to verify the report, but it comes to me from a source entitled to confidence. He paid a quarter of a million dollars for the Gazette alone, which was an excessive price, my informant says. He has recently offered it for sale, with the other two thrown in, for $20,000, but failing to find purchasers, or even bidders at their own price, decided to put an-end to them. Twu million dol- lars is mentioned as the round sum that his experience as a publisher cost him.” INCOME TAX CASES Argument of Ex-Senator Edmunds Against the Oonstitutionality of the Law, His Definition of a Direct and an In- direct Tax—His Closing Appeal for His Clients. In the United States Supreme Court yes- terday afternoon argument was resumed upon the income tax cases. Assistant At- torney General Whitney concluded his deferse of the income tax. Ex-Senator Gecrge F. Edmunds ther addressed the court in behalf of the ap- Pellants, against the tax. Mr. Edmunds said he did not think the time had come when there should no longer be an appeal to the courts from the acts of Congress. It would be beyond the func- tion cf Congress to pass an act that would strip the courts of their rights, and this was just as true as to the rights of the citizens as to those of the courts. Features of the Law Criticised. Speaking of the income tax law he re- ferred to the provision that the taxpayer was required to make his returns to dep- uty collectors. He said the deputy was not recognized as a legitimate officer under the Constitution. “I do not, however,” he said, “mean to dwell on that, but merely refer to it in passing as one of the points of vice which bloom in the garden of the, last Congress.” He criticised many other features of the law providing for the col- lection of the tax and pointed out that it left no room for resort or appeal to the courts, but left the final adjustment to the revenue officers, who, he said, were not only the final judges, bu the inquisitors as well. “It is true,” he gaid, “that these returns are to be re- garded as confidential, but how are we to know that they are always to be so treated? Is it not possible that they may be handled, for instance, like the confi- dences of the United States Senate?” Mr. Edmunds then reviewed the cases heretofore decided, which have been re- ferred to in the previous argument, and analyzed the points involved at length. He was referring to the Hilton case, in- volving this tax on carriages, when Chief Justice Fuller called his attention to the fact that Mr. Hilton had an unusual num- ber of carriages, 125 as he remembered. “Unusual in number, yes," Mr. Edmunds asserted, “but he possessed them as many Persons possess virtue and grace.” The True Rule of the Constitution. He asked the court to overrule its former decision on the income tax, as given in the Springer case. “Let us,” he said, ‘come back to the true rule of the Constitution We are to expect gradual and infinitesimal departures from the line marked out by the Constitution, and we may depart further and further from it until at last, like the mariner after a storm, or the traveler in the wilderness, after the stars again come out, we are compelled to readjust our course in the new light that is given.” He argued that the past Congress had overstepped the limits of the Constitution in imposing this tax, because, he said, “it was short of money,” and argued that un- der this law 95 per cent of the tax would be paid by 2 per cent of the taxable voters. “It becomes,” said Mr. Edmunds, “‘an 1 teresting subject of speculation as to how long the government can last under a sys- tem which allows those who pay nothing to tax their fellow citizens. One evil step will lead to another, as one will follow an- other, until by and by we will have revolu- tion, then anarchy, and then a tyrant to rule _us, as the revolving changes go round.”” A Direct and an Indirect Tax. Justice Harlan asked Mr. Edmunds if he had formulated a definition of the differ- ence between a direct and indirect tax, and he replied that he had. He thereupon pro- ceeded to give it, saying that a direct tax was a tax on any kind of property and upon persons, not in respect of property in existence, acquired or to be acquired, not on a calling or on the importation of goods, but in respect to the things which belong to the existence of property, while an in- direct tax included all the rest, as referred to in the Constitution under the head of duties, imposts and excises, which would be heavy or light on each person depending upon his will. a2 “Do you not,” asked Justice Brown, “‘re- gard a tax that is paid by a person himself as a direct tax?” and Mr. Edmunds as- scented. Asked by Justice Shiras to give a defini- tion of excise he quoted Jacobs and Samuel Johnson, where the latter says it is a “hateful tax” collected .by “wretches.” Justice Harlan suggested that the defini- tion would fit his (Mr. Edmunds’) idea of the income tax, to which Mr. Edmunds re- plied that it did in part. Mr. Edmunds closed with a plea for equality in taxation. He declared it to be the mission of the Supreme Court, the tribunal of last resort, to correct such mistakes, and made a last appeal for a return to the principles of equality and uniform justice, even if in do- ing so it became necessary for it to re- verse the former decision. —————_—_o+—___<\£_ COLD WINTERS OF HISTORY. ‘The Past Winter Was Not the Worst on Record. In 1433 the Thames and all other rivers of. England: and Scotland froze over; the Seine, Rhine and Danube were closed to navigation early in December. The Darda- nelles and Hellespont froze, as did many bays and inlets of the Mediterranean. Ice formed in Algiers, and the Straits of Gibraltar was almost impassable from drift ice. In 1594 all the rivers of North Europe were frozen before Christmas. The Cat- tegat froze, together with a large part of the Baltic. The sea at Venice froze so that during three weeks no boats could be used. The Tiber froze at Rome and men crossed it on the ice, a thing never known before nor since. In 1658 the bays and inlets of North Eu- rope froze over early in December. Charles X of Sweden crossed the strait to Den- mark with his whole army, including the artillery, baggage and provision trains. In 1648 the Thames was covered with ice over a foot thick. Booths were erected for a fair, which was held on the river. Coaches plied to and fro on the ice as on dry land. All the French ports were closed for three or four weeks, the harbors being frozen over. In 1691 the cold was so severe in east- ern Europe that packs of starving wolves entered Vienna and attacked men and women in the streets. All the canals of Venice were frozen, and the principal mouth of the Nile was blocked with float- ing ice for a week. In 1740 the Thames was frozen for eleven weeks. Forest birds almost all perished, and trees were split by the frost. The har- bor of Barcelona froze over, and naviga- tion was suspended in the Greek archipel- ago on account of the danger from floating ice. The winter of 1812-13 was one of the hardest ever known in Europe. The Thames froze from the source to the sea, the Seine, the Rhine, the Danube, the Po and the Guadalquiver were all covered with ice. The Baltic froze for many miles from land, and the Ikagerack and the Cattegat wege both frozen over. The Adri- atic at Venice was frozen, so was the Sea of Marmora, while the Hellespont and the Dardanelles were blocked with ice and the archipelago was impassable. The Tiber was lightly coated, and the Straits of Messina were covered with ice. Snow fell all over North Africa, and drift ice ap- peared in the Nile. This was the winter of Napoleon's retreat from Moscow, where 400,000 men perished, mostly of cold and hunger. The men froze to death in bat- talions, and no horses were left, either for the artillery or cavalry. Quicksilver froze this winter. In 1849 the cold in Sweden, Norway and Russia was so sévere that great numbers of persons were frozen to death in all those countries. In 1863-64 a severe cold wave swept over the whole of North America. The ther- mometer went to 60 degrees below zero in the northwest. The Mississippi river was blocked with ice in a single night, and in twelve hours froze from St. Paul to Cairo. FOR DYSPEPSIA Use Horsford's Acid Phosphate. Dr. O. I. Halbert, Waco, Texas, says: “I have used it in dyspepsia with gocd effect.” ENDED INA RIOT. Exciting Conclusion of the Indiana Legislature’s Session. The Indiana legislature ended in a riot last night. The governor is allowed by the constitution to hold Ja bil] three working Gay before vetoing ér approving it. The trouble originated over the bill to supplant Custodian Griffin, a democrat, with a re- publican. The bill wag. delivered to the gov- ernor two nights ago. It was his scheme to hold it until the last minute, and then the legislature could’ not pass it over his veto, as adjournment -would take place at 12 o'clock. The governor's secretary start- ed with the bill with, ten minutes’ time. The republicans attempted by force to pre- vent his reaching the legislative hall with the bill in time. When Private Secretary King entered the elevator with the veto message he was seized by Mr. Adams of Parke, the giant member of the house, and held as in a vise, while J. G. Allen, another member, ran the elevator up and down at lightning speed. King’s yells soon brought the cus- tedian of the building with his force, and the elevator was stopped and King released. There were still five minutes and the cen- tral door was forced by the custodian’s force. Then came a “rush” that resembled a riot. The democrats tried to fight through a way for King to the speaker's chair, but the speaker’s watch showed 12 o'clock long before they got there and he decided the house adjourned. Two or three chairs were smashed in the rush. oo An important series of five free lectures on “Primitive Handicraft and Arts,” by Frank Hamilton Cushing of the United States bureau of ethnology, Washington, was opened at the Drexel Institute, Phila- delphia, last week.
