Stanley, in a recent letter to Brock
bans, the German publisher, says: “II
is not the entertainments that keep mi
from work, it is my visitors and letters;
they are innumerable. As you know, 1
went to the Albert Lake to rescue Emin
Pasha, the valiant defender of his prov
ince. Of my own free will I undertook
to go to his assistance, aul I hope you
do Dot belong to those who believe that
I dragged away the Pasha against his
will. All I asked from him was a state
ment of his intentions, my only desire
being to be of use to him; but you will
read all this iu my book.”
The wild Indians of the South Ameri
can republic, United States of Colombia,
are creating much trouble just at present.
News comes from the extreme cast of the
Territory of Casanare that, the plantation
of Santa Elena, between the rivers Meta
and Cimana, has been destroyed by tirt
and li:s otherwise suffered from the in
cursions of thousands of savage Indians
of various nomadic tribes. These abori
gines, to the number of 5000, have united
in common battle array to secure the ful
filment of an offer made a month ago by
the Colombian Government to supply
them with cloth and salt. In a menacing
manner the ludians have ordered the
colonists on the frontier to procure the
articles promised to them, and also to
obtain for them supplies of beef to satisfy
their hunger. A number of houses have
been fired aud many persons robbed of
cattle by the savages. The inhabitants
of Santa Elena have had to abandon their
houses many times in consequence of the
Indians, and they urgently ask the Pre
fect of Casanare to send to the scene an
trmed force to control the savage hordes
which continually threaten them.
The possibilities of milk are by uc
meaus yet exhausted. The curd of milk
has been mixed with some mineral mattei
and compressed into an excellent substi
tute for ivory, with all its hardness, elas
ticity and fine grain. Made into billiard
balls, knife handles, door knobs, and
such useful matters, it has met with gen
eral satisfaction, and now that anew
process by which the curd and whey to
gether arc evaporated and hardened into
substances like marble, anew interest in
milk is awakened. A food substance en
tirely indestructible by decomposition,
possessing highly nutritious properties, is
thus introduced, and one may have the
satisfactio#, says the New York Timet ,
of filling his house with ornamental work,
that when the fashion changes may be
ground up and eaten in various accept
able form-, as soups, cakes, tarts, bis
cuits, and other preparations which the
cook’s brain alone is capable of invent
ing. The plasticity of milk is such that
it can be pressed into a variety of forms,
and its value as food when the sugar ami
the phosphates of the milk serum, or
whey, are retained, as they may be by
Evaporation, will be considerably higher
than that of the dried flesh which is pre
pared in a permanent form as pemmican

SAM RANDALL DEAD
THE GREAT STATESMAN PASSES QUIETLY
OVER TICK RIVER.
At five o’clock Sunday morning, at
Washington, the spirit of Hon. Samuel
J. Randall took its flight from earth. He
had made a noble and heroic fight for
life, but when death came he went
off as in sleep. As the day opened and the
people appeared upon the streets,
they were met witli the sid intel
ligence that the soul of the great
and noble democratic commoner had
loosed its mantle of earth ami passed to
the great hereafter. A spirit of gloom
and sadness overspread t city, and over
the masses ot people who lab r wended
their way churchward, there was a lack
of brightness and buoyancy. Indeed, all
Washington was in tears. No man who
lias ever served in the halls of congress
was ever so beloved as Randall. In all
the churches prayers went lip for his
stricken family, in his death the demo
cratic party loses its greatest leader, the
south its truest friend, and the country
one of its greatest men.
