H lilt PHKJI Ulfg I Htl*w tt T lt.lll There came very near being another ran- riot In New York city on 1-abor Day A negro boy threw an apple core at a ped dler. and the peddler pursued the boy. caught him trod was giving him a beating when a negro man came up and kno ked the poddler down A proieralon of tailor ing men was passing at the lime and the cry of "lynch him! lynch him!" was at once raised among them. That was enough to start a riot. Kvery negro In the netghtiorhooil wlm made his appearance In the street was attacked Home of them were pretty Iwidly Latin. Uricks and stones were thrown, and. for a while, the situation looked very seitous. Finally the police got • otllrol of the mob. and after a number of arrest# hud been made quiet was restored. Rare riot* are likely to tie of frequent occurrence In New Yoik. now that It has been demonstrated that there Is a pretty strong feeling there against the negro Kvery time there Is a public difficulty be tween a negro and a white man there l likely lo lie a movement against the ne groes. Borne one is likely to start a cry agalnsi the negroea Just as was the caa. on I-abor Hay There Is no doubt that among the tailor ing people of New Yoik there I* a very hostile feeling for the negroes They oc cupy certain ttetde of lalior to ihc exclu sion ol while men. This Is resented hy ihe whiles. In the recent riot In New Or leans Ihe element that attacked the ne groes on the street not only has u preju dice against the negro race, as the white pcoph generally have, but It hates them because they successfully compete for certain kinds of labor. In New York the riots will tie started by those who ha’e the negro because he Is a competitor for labor. Uut If there were no race prejudice running through all rlasses of white people there would be no race riots.

The Republican* will, of course, explain the falling off In their Vermont vote as being due to the apathy consequent upon their coch-aureiw*s of carrying the elec tion.

WIB CIIISKSK MATE t II It I*TI ANV Everything goes to show that the up rt-mg In China had Its origin In the strong fe. ling of dislike on the pari of the natlvea against the Christian*, not on aiicunt of the religion of the latter, hut because the Chinese havy been un able to differentiate b- tween the |>er*ons professing and teaching Christianity, and the non profm-ing subjects of the Chris tian government*. To the Chinese mind all white men are Christians, whether thy are hard-driving nnd Irrillgtous rad ioed contractors or traders, or mlsslon arlis It 1* neither the fault of nor any reflection upon the missionaries that this feeling of animosity should exist among the Chine*-. While the good men of the - lolh hav- labor.<i long and earnestly to establish a foothold for the true religion among the yellow p ople, there have been many other nominal Christian*, that ls men brought up In Christian countries, who s traders, contra* lor*, etc . have used the Chinese shamefully; and. unfor tunately, harsh nnd unjust treatment makes a more lasting Impression than tenderness and honesty. In a recent gpterh laird Salisbury said that It was not to Christianity as a re ligion. but to Christians o- suspected po litical nernt* of foreign powers, that the Chine*, ol.j.cted All of the encroach ment* that hav.- len made upon the Chi nrne empire during rer.nt year* have been by Christian Power*. Every treaty concession breaking In ti|>n the ancient usage* of the Chinese lias been obtain, and by a Christian Power. It Is not surpris ing. Iber-fore, that the naturally suspi cious Chinese should look upon the for- Igner*. or "Christians." with uneasiness, and fear for the perpetuity of their Insti tutions If not their nation Itself The treaty stipulations between China and the Christian Fowi r# provide not only for the safety of missionaries, but also for the safety of native converts. This provision has twin the cause of a great deal of trouble The native convert* to Christianity are not wholly without guile It has been said. Indeed, that some of the '‘convert#" b c#me such merely for the purpose of pecuniary gain, and to escape In a measure their liability to the Chi ncse law- Using under the protection of foreign goverlfmentg. they have frequent ly violated the law. and th-n appealed to the foreign reprasen to live* for protection, which has Ishd accorded them. This has served to estrange the unconverted from the com cried natives. Thu former object to ibe Immunities of the latter, which they regard as an Injustice, and for which Injustice the* blame the Christians.

They hove Impnssid unwilling labor, (logged their laborers, confiscated property without adequate compensation, desec laud graveyards, burned villages ■ hat chanced to stand In the way, and oth erwise shown contempt for the Chinese.

New Haven and Hartford Railroad his already passed the experimental stage and Is pronounced a complete success. For the signal lumps red glass Is used for danger, green for safety, and yellow for caution. The lenses of a given color nre carefully test ed and uniformity Is demanded lieforv they are put In service. The engineers can thus calculate the distance* to the lights readily, a# In the same atmosphere the signals show alike and can be seen from one to three miles The change from white to a green for the safety sig nal was adopted on account of the fre quency with which new white lights were placed along the lines of ihe rail way. serving to perplex the engineers The change to a uniform glass Is also much appreciated by the engineers, a with the glass formerly used with vary ing degrees of transparency and color ll was aot possible to estimate distances. —A clock that has ticked out each sec ond and inch minute of the existence of the nation ts owned hy A.

The theory of the artificial production of In digo was llrst announced between I*7o and ishn. hut the application of methods to practical uses required some twenty years of constant research. The present artificial Indigo commerce I* said to rep resent almost pure Indlgotln. and I* sold In the form of a97 per cent, powder In the cose of the vegetable Indigo the amount of tndlgoMn fluctuates between 70 and 90 per cent. The artificial Indigo contains no Indigo red. no Indigo brown, ami no Indigo glue: the lack of theee substances being It* special disadvantage, a* the Indigo red and the Indigo glue seem to have some connection with the fiber of Ihe fabric to he dyed. The Indigo red Is useful In the production of the darker shades With lower prices for the artificial product which It used hy dyer* In the same way a* the vegetable Indigo. It seems extremely likely that the cultivation of the latter, now ex tensively carried on In the Eaat ladles, will be rendered uafiroQublc. Forewarned, Forearmed. The liability to disease is preatly lessened when the blood is in tfOod con dition, and the circulation healthy and vigorous. For then all refuse matter is promptly carried out of the system ; otherwise it would rapidly accumulate fermentation would take place, the blood become polluted and the consti tution so weakened that a simple malady might result scrioualy.
