The color line was closely drawn the other day in New York in the case of T. Thomas Fortune, the colored agitator and journalist. A salcon-keeper refused to serve him with a glass of beer, on the ground that he was a negro. When he in sisted on his rights a policemen was called, and Fortune was lock ed up. A correspondent, speaking of the case, says it is next to im possible for colored people, how ever educated or well dressed, to secure accommodation or attend ance in many of the hotels and restaurants of New York. ’tP-J 3AV JI sjqSpij jtiq 'Aud on ‘jms ojj •j'SAOJd -ds uo Suiddtqs jo oSojiAud aqj si qsc sm ny siuaui jpqj no Apjos poms uwqj jafpire ibuj uo jno rnoqj puss oj jbsj ion op sav ‘sissj SAisuaqajduiOD pus aisAss jsoin. sqj pusjs npi jsqi ‘spera siuaui -ru^sai issq sq^ A{ab Suijpg ’jsoo smissod lss/AO[ Ajsa oqi 5B siuamnaisut losjjod psans -sc Apinjosqu sassuqajnd pus ‘uBid jbiji siqj Ajj WORK! aiA&s xsw nv crude American oil, much inferior petroleum from the Russian wells and sell the mixt ure as genuine American kerosene.

The largest, named Queen, was pursued by a crowd of men and boys into a lumber yard, where she made a stand and trump eted several times. The crowd pressed her with clubs, and in a moment she charged them. In the scramble a big pile of lumber was upset andfour men were buried. After an hour’s chase Queen was captured. •araoq mo jnoX ni lepx isax ,sXb<i Si no inanziuism anq V TIOJC dltJS HIM 3M pan ’oait noX jaAajaqM An Editor’s.

The progress toward reducing the number of desertions from the army is gratifying. The returns for the past six months, just pub lished, show that the desertion evil is rapidly decreasing, the number of desertions reported for April being about 100 less than for the corresponding-month of 1889. For Maya similar creditable showing is made. Recent reforms in the treatment of enlisted men have brought about this welcome change, and an order issued by the Secre tary of War some time ago per mitting any recruit, after he has been in the service three months and until he has served seven months, to apply for a discharge, Btate the reasons ■ of his disaffec tion and get an honorable dis missal, has almost put an end to desertions at the recruiting posts, where formerly probably 90 per cent, of them occurred. The most desirable recruits, however, avail themselves of this open door to leave the service. They find after a short experience that there is a great difference be tween- the real and the ideal of a soldier’s life, and even the opportu nities afforded for distinction and promotion after four or five years’ service do not lure . them' on. In order to render attractive the ser vice to the class of men it is de sired to enlist, army officers have suggested the revision of the pay table. They have reached the con clusion that this is the only way the quality of enlisted men can be improyed. None are better quali fied to judge than the officers whosei opinions are based on prac tical experience, and congress and the war department should give the matter consideration. Thir teen dollars a month does not seem like good wages to the average young man, and it is not made much more attractive when he is told that in time he may be made a corporal at $15 per month, or sergeant at $17, or, if lie has ex ceptionally good luck, a first ser geant, and receive $22 a month. The same arguments apply to the navy, and now that aliens can no longer be enlisted on Ameni can war vessels, it is beginning to be a serious question where the sailors are to come from to man the ships . kept in commission, Boys educated in the naval squad rons seldam re-enlist, but are at tracted to. the merchant service, where, they receive better pay. An Ingenious Hired Man. All hired men are ingenious, only some are more so than oth ers, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. One day last week a gentlemen sent John, his coachman, milk maid and bottle-washer, to the neighboring villiage for 50 cents worth of 2-cent stamps. After the usual time—say three hours—had elapsed John returned from his tramp of two miles. His face wore a self-satisfied look when he came into his employer’s presence.' “Got the stamps, John?” “Yes sir,” the -man replied, handing over a bunch of 1-ci L stamps. “I said 2-cent stamps, John, and yo’ve got ones.” “Yes sir,” and the smile widen ed, “I asked for 50 cents worth o’ stamps, and the postmaster, says he, ‘l-cent or 2-cents?’ ‘Do yon sell 1-cent stamps? says I. ‘Yes,’ says Tie. ‘Well,’ says I, ‘if you can buy stamps for a cent what’s the use of payin’. 2?’ an’ I bought the 1-cent stamps, sir.” Of course John’s master was charmed with his thrift The transition from long,'linger ing and painful sickness to robust health marks an epoch in the life of the individual. Such a remark able event is treasured in the memory and the agency whereby the good health has been attained is gratefully blessed. Hence it is that so much is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So many feel they owe their restoration to health of the use of the Great Alterative and Tonic. If you are troubled with any diseas of Kidneys, Liver or Stomaco, of long or short stand ing you will surely find relief by use of I lectric Bitters.

A silent tongne is an enemy to the feast Keep of the frying pan and trust to the broiler^ Merriment at meat means a long face for the doctor. A whiff of the kitchen is some times better than the taste. People who kill lions learn to shoot by practicing on other things. Before great victories can be enjoyed great battles, must be fought. Educating the boy is the pa rent’s endeavor to get him to choose right. To-have a course marked oat be forehand, is to be prepared for difficulties. It is not so mnch what a man does as what he loves that decides his destiny. An egg on your own plate is bet ter than a turkey on somebody else’s table. No amonnt of cultivation can change a worthless weed into a useful vegetable. What a blessed condition of life it is when even our troubles may be made a means of joy. If we were mef not so imper fect oarselves, we would have a better opinion of other people. Shadows have no elaws; they carry no swords, and fire no guns, but they frighteu .many people to death. People who boast that they nev er did any harm, are generally those who haven’t done' much good. Serving riches, instead of mak ing riches serve you, is the most piteous of all poverty. It is slavery. The man who threatens to com mit suicide when he is in low spirits is a safe enough venture for-a life insurance company. When a man is fortunate in bus iness he attributes the fact to his ability. Whe he is unfortunate he bewails his bad luck. If fws Wwrt • ASK YOUR MERCHANT NEWSPAPER 175tbEJitioii Now Ready.
