THE NEGRO, Prof. Ensley's Interestl His Boc 3 Prof. N H. Ensley, of Alcorn college, Rodney, Miss,, lectured last night on the “‘SBocial Status of the Negro.” The audi- ence, although not large, was composcd mostiy of white people. The lecturer was not of the darkest hie, but his language ‘waas of the choicest description, blending «pathos and poetic sentiment with an array of facts that showed the professor was & man of thought as well a8 an indus- trious student. A few only of the leading thoughts he expressed are given, He said his primary idea was to talk to his own race alone, but as he continued his travels he found the white people largely attending. The black man was not a colored man, but in point of fact, knowing what black and white are, the white man was really the man of color, ‘The whites " in Mississippi are accused of bulldozing, and while that was true, the negro was_the greatest of bulldozers. They would not tolerate free spesch, They had been voting the republican ticket since the war, but if he studied his own interest in the south he should desert the republican party, simply becausa the condition of the races there would not rrmn him to sugceed. KFor himself, he Th Lecture On ad nlways voted the republican ticket. 6 negro goes always with the republi- cans,$the white man with the democrats, and continual enmity is the result. In Miseissippi the republican party was about gone, because of its divis local issues. He enuld not discuss the negro problem 1n such a manner as to ascend to the stars, but the race is suc- coel . The statement has been made that all negroes are on the same plan-— roll them in flour or in any way try to make them different and the result is they are “niggers,” It makes me indig- nant to hear that argument. True, the race has no society based on moral char acter, and it may sometimes be thought that the good caunot be told from the bad, but still they are not ‘“all niggers together.” ~ You may civilize him and he will still continue a negro. He thinks himself a serf at all times. Let him look into a railway coach or other traveling conveyance, and should he sue one of hisrace there he will crowd past all others and saat himself beside the man, and should the latter be well dressed, of a gentlemanly nature and at all high minded, and not hikely to en- courage the very loud talk and greasy garruents and offensive ways of the new- comar, the latter at once tells all his ac- quaintances that the gentlemanly man has the big head and only wants to associate with white folks. That all negroes are equal is not true. Other in- stances of the traveling scene were given, When a man wants a wife he ‘wants her wealthy and good looking and clean, but she must be inferior in power to himself. Nuture has forbidden the social equality ot the negro with the white man. And it should be so. ~ All the trees in the forest should not be blended. Variety was a source of beauty and pleas- ure, He specified the different races and their peculiarities and showed how fool- trli it would be to blend them. They should all stand as they are, but love each other they must. The lecturer suid he loved his own race, but he also loved the human family. What benefits one race bencfits all. Let every one bring his power and lay it on the altar of humanity. They say in Now York social life they ask » candidate for Jddmission, ‘‘How much money have you got?” in Philadelphia they ask, “Who was your father?”’ and in~ Boston they say, “How much do you know?' The negro has no race prid The Egyptian points to his many achievementsin archi- tecture, the Greek to art, the Roman to his prowess in arms, which is still felt, the English to spreading c h American to progress - ties, but lo! the negro sa is nothing for mé to be proud of. He dwelt upon the emotion of the race as great. He sometimes carried it to excess, ut bow much more was he properly sensitive to finer chords than ti; on intellec- tual sphynx. The late war was dwelt upon and what it had achieved, While the negro stood for the union, he never was false to his master. The churches some- times refused a negro preacher a call because he was too black, without any reference to his brains. A boast was made of blie blood, which was necessa- rily of an inferior kind. A pure black negro is a premier of the royal blood, “I would rather have come in a pure line from a frog,”’ said the speaker, “than to come from an adulterated race.” The immorality of the negro preacher was dwelt upon and he said that the devil himself would blush at the sins of many of them., He compared the white and black races 1n this respect; spoke of the of society regarding of the negro’s thefts and lies s for watermelons, as well as the different kinds of sins of the white man. In Mississippi the black man could ride in any cur in the state. The same could not be said of New York. He him- self waa refused a cup of tea in an ordin- ary restaurunt at Lincoln, so that Mis- sissippi is ahead of this proud northern state, At the conclusion of the lecture he sat at the organ and sang a pleasing song. NORTH OMAHA SEWER, Work Will Be Kesumed With a ull Force This Morning. The BEE of yesterday and Wednesday contained chapters about the stopping of work on the North Omaha sewer, It was shown that the contractors, Messrs. Delaney, Thomson & Murphy, had been put.to unusual expense because of cav- ing in of the walls and other accidents which coula not have been foreseen and wero consequently without a ready uuvply of money on Monday last to enable them to meét all their obligations. At that time, however, Mr. Thomson was in Sioux City ondeavoring to collect money which was due him from that city for public improvements, and was delayed there until last night. That gentleman, however, has now returned to this city and tho men remaining unpaid will be remunerated this morning for the few days they have been without their wages, and the work will be recommenced and pushed forward to an early completion. ‘Thousands of cures follow ths use of Dr, Sage's Catarrh Remeay. 50 cents. S POLICEMEN'S PAY, The Kirst Suit Started in the District Court. An action was begun yesterday aftar- noon 1n the district court by the Police- men's Relief association for the collection of §6:0, the amount due Mr.Seavey, chef of police, from the city, for services fromn Mareh 25 to October 1. This is the first of a series of suits which will be begun in order that the council may be compelled to pay the claims of the police, which clains shall be regularly purchased. It is reported that to-day the day men will be paid from the fund collected and the long-looked-for reliof obtained, and on Tuesday next the might men will be similarly dealt with, The attorneys for the association are W.

FIRE LIMITS LAW. w How it 1s Olaimed the Council Has Connived at 1ts Violation. Some time ago the matter of granting to C. B. Havens & Co. the right to re- move and build a frame coal shed on Webster street opposite the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha road was introduced into the council. It was claimed thatthe firm intended to erect an iron roof, and it is now claimed that the council granted the permission sought, though no information of the kind had been vouchsafed the building mspector. The shed in question i3 within the fire lLimits and can. not be erected without vio lating the fire ordinance, Yet resi- dents in the neighborhood claim that it is now being built, and that it i3 a menace to their property. It is further claimed that the council could not legally &rant a request to put up such a shed unless upon the showing by a majority of the property owners in the vicinity that the same was not objected to by them. Yesterday morning a number of the neighbors raised objections and were vainly look‘m{x for somebody who could protect their interests in the matter. Cheap Rates to Chicago.

The Danish Queen Embarrassed by the Gathering of Royal Guests, HER HOUSEHOLD RESOURCES. The Prince of Walea Votes Bernstoff a Bore—The Danish King's Fond- ness for Photographs—A Fru- and Sensible Woman. A correspondent of the New York World writing from Copeabagen, Sep- tember 20, says: At the time when Copenhagen was brilliant with flags and garlands of flowers, chance led me to this **Venice ot the North.” The seven- teenth anniversary of Queen Louise's birth was recently celebrated by the in- habitants of Denmark, and then the city was very gay, for, except the unfortunate Duchess of Chamberland, every member of the royal family was at the castle of Fredensborg. Thero was among the gathering the czar and empress of Russia, prince and princess of Wales, king and queen of Greece, with their basilonpaides royal sons). Fredensborg resembles the country house of a gentleman rather than the palace of a king, but it seems that its lux- ury is too overwhelming for the simple tastes of Christian IX. and his queen. As a summer residence they prefer one- storied Bernstoff, but here 1t was impos- sible to offer hospitality to chiidren and innumerable grandchildren. 1 think the favorite son-in-law is the czar, for he was to be seendriving every day with the king and, indeed, Alexander III. had the wr of u very happy man. Perhaps it was because he bad an opportunity to throw off the cures of state and devote himself to domestic felicity. The czar loves sim- plicity, and is always glad to be at Bern- te Here he insisted the family re- gs should take place, but when his n-law told him that at Bernstoft there would be but one room for the en- tire imperial suite he decided that Fred- ensborg must be a necessity, for some dni'u at least, The prince of Wales, on the contrary, finds these visits to his wife's family more than tiresome. however, for Alex- ander’s sake he makes & martyr of him- selt almost every year. His favorite saying is, “‘Nothing can be more stupid than Bernstoff, unless it be Kredens- redensborg is not very imposing in its architecture. It consists of n central pavilion with a long suit of wings, the whole crowned by a dome or cupola of 7inc. At the entrunce are stationed two guards dressed in the most picturesque blue costumes. Fredensborg means **peaceful castle’’ and the presence of these guards denotes extra precau- tion, for at Bernstoff a single Danish dog protects the royal mmates, The second story of Frendensbo tains the family apartments. Tore one must mount & wooden staire painted white and covered with a worn carpet. Long, narrow corridor: lead to tiny rooms, devoted to the ladies in waiting of the visiting SSe8, There were only two dames from each country, but the king of Den- mark would hardly had room to entertain more and Russians, English and Dan ndering ahout these corridors it is 1Sy to imagine A HOBBY OF THE DANISH At the lett of the stairc: is the royal antechamber and the private secretary’s A gullery ieads to the Kking's apartments, consisting of antechamber, salon and study. Here the furniture 18 very simple, and nothing ati the at- tention except a magniticent bear's skin, a gift of the czar, The study has three windows opening on the garden, called Muarinorhaven. From these windows the view 1s more than beautiful. The walls of the study are literally covered with family photographs. A very large one of the empress of Russia is placed on an armchs s there is not an inch of space left on doors or walls. The taste of this Danish king for photographs is remark- able. In their study are no less than tour of the queen, and of these one 13 life-size. The study is the family room, perhaps because it is the largest n the castle, and from this open the queen’s apartments T ve a view on the park, Thetirst salon is furnished in style Louis XV the walls are hung = with red silk, bordered with golll; between the two windows is an inlaid Florentine armoire; but what strikes one immediately on entering is the great number of photographs and flowers. Iu this room the entire royal f. walts the announcement of dinne here they all assemble for thc grandmamma gr tle daughter of the cmpress of Russia offers to aunts and uncles. The second salon isin yellow satin, and more stately, more forbidding th the first. Tho en's apartments are united with the Of the castle by the “‘room of Fred. IV." The four rooms comnosing e “‘apartments of the Princess Caro- line" are on these reunions reserved for the princess of Wales, and inn d @ors ridor is a door over which is written, **Princess Louise, Victoria and Maud.” This nursery of the English princess is simply furnished in coini: Another long corridor leads to the dining-room, a museum of pictures and antiquities. The immense oaken tables are among the curiosities of the castle, but the grand master of the court, 1 spite of his_skill, found himself unable to give all the children places. So during the festivi ties the family dinea in the hall under the cupola. ‘The czar aud empress of Russia had two rooms overlooking the park, one a bedroom, the other a salon furnished in pale blue silk. The dressing-room, which is like aecloset, contains only a toilet table covered with gray cloth. The prince of Wales kept bachelor’s hall as far from the family as possible The princess is the favorite child ot her mother, and the empress of Russia is the father’s darling. Alexandra and her mother pass hours each day in playing quets, but the princess complains each yeur of the old piano, on which she pr ticed when a child. The queen alw: answers by this phrase, “My child, if you knew how hard it is for us to make both ends meet you would understand why [ donot buy a piano.” Curistian and Louise have only 260,000 a year to maintain their royal state, but the czar each Christmas gives Queen Louise $130,000, and thus she contrives to pay the debts of the household. THE QUEEN’S COMMENDABLE TRAITS, The queen is a woman who deserves admiration. Daughter of the landgrave of Hesse-Cassel ard Princess Louise Charlotte, whose father was Frederick, hereditary prince of Denmark, Queen Louise has known the ups and downs of life better than any woman called to share a throne, All her children were born when she was duchess of Sleswig- Holstein-Sonderburg-Glncksburg, — and much difticulty had she 1n giving them the education suitable ~ for the future see knew was to be theirs. She isa talented water color artist, and in the days of her poverty dreamed of sell- ing her pictures in order to add to a very modest income, Her sons and daughters were trained from a very early age to visit the poor and afilicted, and to prefer the society of a few tried friends to all the splendors of courts. Queen Louise looks about sixty years old, Her hair is hardly gray, and ‘although slightly deaf sho always grasps the idea otx the one with whom she cofverses. Thore isa sad contrast between the prince of Wales' indifference toward his wife and the tenderness with which the czar sur- rounds the empress. * Often when Alex- ander and Dagmar rbturn from a drive, if she is a long time »n-?mrlng to come down stairs, her imperjal husband takes her 1n her arms, carries her to the salon and introduces her as “‘my wife, my dear little wife.” One day durlng the reunion the royal and imperial familics made their yearly Rllxrimm to the castle of Elsinore. our correspondent recently heard a party of Virginia school-girls, who were aight seeing at the old castle, discussing the question, “Did Hamlet meeot the ghost of his father on one of the corner towers or in the courtyard?’ One of these voung girls recited ‘‘To be or not to be'’ in a tone loud enough to displease the officer on guard, who, with his glass, discovera ships invisible to the naked oye. Some Cook tourists were in a neighboring wood, where th guide showed them the ‘“authentic’’ tomb of Hamlet, and if they were satisfied there can be no pleasure in attempting to de- stroy their illusions. From the roof of the castle one secs Sweden, only a quarter of an honr dis- tant.

Yet their expressions are as frank and pleasant as their manners are simple and candid. ‘The peasant womans’ dress is singularly pretty, and even the plainest cannot fail to look otherwise than pleasingin the neat, dark, pluted skirts, bright, red, heart-shaped bodices and white chemis ettes and in caps which are simply ar- vels of the knitting art.

Not a human habitation was in sight, and the desolution was only heightenod by the myriads of shrieking seaguls bluckening the rocks in ungry crowds. The ocean beyond lay like a silver lake beneath a white sky.” Turns ing eastward, the sunlight fell faintly on the rocky shores and on the loose red sail of a smack idly coming round a headland.

Forsyth and His Remarkable Experience. Chicago Mail: General George A. For- syth is at the Chicago club on a short furlough from bis Ari- zona post, after several years' absence from Chicago. Not many people who were acquainted with the man would sus- pect that “Sandy’’ Forsyth's quict, al- most retiring, demeanor belongs to one of the famous soldiers of the army. Par- ticularly is he noted as an Indian fighter. In the old turbulent days they used to say on the frontier that Forsyth was one of the few army men who could start after depredating savages and whip them without wasting time in military red tape. His best fight, and one! of the most gal- lant ever seen on the plains, was at Beecher's 1sland, nearly twenty years ago. With fifty-ons men, mostly scouts and frontiersmen, Forsyth encamped one night on this littlesland, in the (at the season) dry fork of the Republican river. At daybreak the camp was aroused by war whoops and shouts on every side. The hills were covered with more than a thousand Indians, led by Roman Nyse, a celebrated chief. Back of them were the squaws and children waiting to termin~ ate with horrible mutilation the slaugh- ter of the white men. The battle began, The Indians were armed with the most approved rifles, and haa_plenty of am- munition. They poured in volley after volley, By 9 o'clock all of Forsyth's horses were killed, and twenty three of his ‘men were dead or wounded. The little command fired sparingly, but every shot of the frontiersmen told. At 10 o'clock 400 of the mounted Indiuns were drawn up in a solid phalanx by Roman Nose and harangued by the medicine man, The others acted as artillery, pouring & deadly firo into the scouis which compelled each man to shrink bo- hind the breastworks they had improvised of dead animals. This contmued halt an hour and then to the sound of the bugle the charge was made. The savage host, & magnificent sight, thundered down upon the gallant little band. When fifty feet away the scouts sprang to their feet and their rifles eracked. The charge fal- tered under the withering fire, hesitated and broke, almost at arm’s length from Forsyth and his men, leaving a score of savages and Roman Nose and the medi- cine man dead on the field. “Can they do any better than that?"’ asked “‘Sandy'' ot Grover, his chief scout. *I have been on the plains thirty years, general,” the latter answered, **and never saw such a charge. They can't do bet- te ‘!‘i"l'ncn we'll lick them yet,” said For- syth. The savages made another attempt to dislodge the defenders and were again repulsed. Night closed the fight, lenvln* Forsyth with nearly half his command either dead or disabled, hissurgeon dead, himself wounded in both legs and in the head, provisions exhausted and the near- est hu{r 100 miles away. “Sandy” grasped the favorable points of the situ- ation, He caused the unwounded to dig six feet for water, strengthen their in- trenchments by throwing up earth, and repared for a famine by cutting steaks rom the dead animals. No words were needed to cheer the men, They were all tighters. One, alad of eighteen,had fought all day with an arrow sticking in his fore- head.” Another man had his oye knocked out by a_bullet, but said nothing till night. Two scouts were selected to make the desperate attgmpt to perce the Indian line and reach Fort Wallace. They procured moccasins from the feet of slmn savages., They walked a mile backward 1o give the Indians the impres- sion the tracks were those of their own men approaching the island. The fol- lowing day the Indians ftired scarcely a shot. That night two more men from the besieged tried to get through to the fort, but were driven back., The next day the attuck was rencwed. The savages tried the old flag of truce artifice. By exposing themselves they endeavored to draw the tire of the scouts, thus exhaust- ing the latter's ammunition. Not until the fourth day did the redskins begin to withdraw, fairly beaten, though the odds in their favor were seventeen to one. Two days later the cavalry guidon of re-enforcements trom Fort Wallace ap- l)m\rml over the horizon and “‘Sandy’’'and s men were relieved. - Salvation Oil routs and bamshes all bodily pain 1nstantly and costs only twenty-five cents a bottle. *‘A bull in a chinashop" is out of place but a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup in the china cioset is in place, b1"ur croup, bronchitis, sore chests and colds it is a prompt and efficacions remedy. e APRMOUR AND THE RANCHMEN, What the Latter Expect to Make By Their New Arrangement?

Profit through the pool..... ererenand 028 Up to the presant time the pool has made no efforts to pledge any large herds of cattle, but has now 40,000 head pledged for the year in the way of ex- perimental shipments, and much arger number for next y. These will all go to Armour, and the number will so be very greatly increased, to such an tent that' Mr. Armour will feel the ne- sity of providing large packing estab- lishments at different points in the coun- try. Next year it is exvected that the en- tire range and feeding country from the north to the south will be the pool; when that is accomplished the pool will have attained its object to, so far as the pros ducers are concerned,wipe out all market lines and make the country practically one market. Said one of the cattlemen recently: “The object is not and has not been to reduce the price to the consumer. They are buying beef cheap enough now, and the only trouble has been the too great difference between what they were pay- ing and what we are receiving.’’ Its superior excellence proven in millionso- Bomes for more than a quarter of A conturt It is used by the United States Governmony Endorsed by the hends of the great universi ties, us the Strongest, Purest and Most Hoalth fi r.
