That such condition of insecurity is not only a great political or social evil but also greatly impedes all industrial de velopments, and inasmuch as the white peojde are only capable of conducting and maintaining the government of such states, Kiving security and protection to the white people and property thereof, the negro race even if its people were educated being wholly unequal to buch great responsibility, if they should come into control of such government, there fore be it Resolved, By the people of the state of Mississippi in its constitutional conven tion assembled, that it is our deliberate judgment and opinion that the true and only efficient remedy for the great and important difficulties arising out of the conditions set forth in the foregoing preamble lies in the repeal of the fifteenth amendment of the constitution of the United States, whereby such restrictions and limitations may be put upon negro suffrage by the several states as may oe necessary aim proper for the maintenance of good and stable governments therein. Resolved, That we request that the con gress of the United States cause to be sub mitted to the several states a proposition to repeal said fifteenth amendment to tho constitution, and that we will cheefully accept as a condition to such repeal such reductions in tho house of representatives of congress from Mississippi as may be reasonsible and just in view of the diminu tion of the numbti. of voters -n the statw consequent upon such repeal of the fif teenth amendment.

Brown of California, in regard to a subterranean mining exhibit was held at headquarters.

At the bottom of the shaft a corridor is to be built, elliptical in form, 40 feet wide, 20 feet high and TOO leet in circumference, from which would extend outwardly shafts or drifts, made in exact representation, of the famous mines of tho west with the mineral. Mr. Brown stated that it was his idea to leave the exposition company build it. and from the gross receipts ho be paid 5 per cent; that if he could secure the loca tion he would irive all excavnted material to the fair for filling. He thought he could produce 42,0 0 "yards of material for use in in eighteen months. If the world's fair cannot use the material it can be disposed of without cost. It was his idea that an admittance fee of r)0 cents should be charged, and he esti mated that 40,000 or 50,000 people per day could be accommodated. There could be room for 7,000 or 8,000 people in the cor ridors and drifts below. The temperature would be 54 degrees all the year rouud. He estimated that the cost of his scheme would be about $600,000, out of which would be left aboutSJ,000 fora contingent fuud. DENOUNCE THEIR WORK. Pittsburg, Sept. 30.

Spfct.il dtjpntch to the Dallr Eacle. GrTHRiK. Ok., Sept. SO The house de cided today by a vote of IS to S to take up the capital question tomorrow. This means that the bill locating the capital of Oklahoma territory at Oklahoma City will be called up and put on its passage. There are twenty-six members of the lower houPe and a careful canvass shows that the vote will be 14 to 12. Fourteen will vote in favor of leaving the capital at Guthrie against the twelve that nre for Oklahoma City. Of course this vote does notshow a decided preference in favor of Guthrie against Kingfisher. A number of votes, five at least, are avowed Kingfisher men, but they are for Guthrie against Oklahoma City. HOUSE. Guthrie. Olc. Sept. SO. At tho morn ing session twenty-three members were present, and after prayer by the chaplain the minutes were read and approved. Mr. Colson moved to adjourn twenty minutes to allow a stove to be put up. Mr. Stovall moved to amend by adjourning until 2 p. m. Carried. AFTERNOON SESSION. Joint resolution No. 6, inviting tho president to visit Oklahoma was con curred in. A communication from the governor re lating to water courses of Beaver countv was referred to tho committee on manu facturing. The house then proceeded with the dis cussion of house hill No. 10, relating to schools. Mr Colson thought some code should be taken as a basis. Mr. Wnggoner moved to recommit the bill to the committee with instructions to bring in a bill in harmony with the code. Mr. Daniels Will the report be better than the lost Mr. Campbell The house objects to the townsite system in favor of the district. The committee will bring in a bill in hnr uiony with the house. Mr. Tcrrill The house should formulate a bill. The committee had the bill a week, lam a member of the committee und moved in the committee room to throw the bills into the waste basket and frame n simple bill. If you want school legis lation quick go into committee, of the whole. The council will send up its bill as far as adopted. Take this up and act upon it.

Tho object of this ommittee is this: AVe have adopted as a n- nlel the Dokota statutes. We find upon lose examination that we can adopt nany of the statutes, with slight modlfl- .ttion. These statutes have been prepared y somo of tho most eminent jurists of to- ay. They have, also, in the main, been adjudicated. I have gone over certain portions and have marked oat such por tions as are, in my opinion, unsuited to the locality. This committee if appointed can take this matter in hand aud in a short time can make a report that we can act upon. If we go on as we have begun tho president's gavel will fall at tha eud of the session and the work will bo but half done. Mr. Brown of Oklahoma I am about to introduce- a bill covering the same ground. Am not in favor of thecommittee. I mors that further consideration of the resolu tion be postponed until tomorrow morn ing. Mr. Foster Hope it will not be post poned. Mr. Brown of Oklahoma Wo ought to stop and look at things a little. I)st 0 to 5. Mr. Pittman As this resolution stands we might just as welL let the house ap point the committee as they control tho committee. I oppose It for this reason. Mr. McCartney I would like to know the condition ot things iu the other houso before votiug on adjournment. Mr. Foster I should bo in favor of thia committee meeting at once. Thpi would do away with the neceisity of a joint chool committee. Mr. Foster introduced his motion and it lies over for action until tomorrow morn ing. Report of committee on council bill No. SO, an act adopting statute laws governing the territory of Oklahoma, recommtnu that it do piuss as amended. The council then proceeded to the con sideration of the educational bill. Mr. Foster moved the substitution of a portion of the Dakota code for the whole bill now under consideration. Mr Brown of Logan I do not enro how many committees the house appoint, and do not rare what the house is doing with this bill There seems to be a disposition with some of tha members to kill thU bill. Why not amend it, if it U objectionablof Why. then, not proceed with the bill upon which we have put to much work. I ven ture the assertion that if the sohool law of any state hud been introduced it would have been just as jtrenuouslr fought Tho council has put in three or four weeks on the bill and have gone over nearly fifty sections. Why, then, not go on and flninti our work? If, when both house have completed thair bills, they do not harmon ize let a joint committee bo appointed to adjtul the differences. Mr. Pittman Where will tho rifling generation bo in the meantime? Mr Brown of Logan They will be In school long before- they will under tho new plan. Mr. Foster When we came to a dead lock yesterday I made this motion to re lieve the condition. The bill wo have in n conglomeration of matter thrown together by a lot of school touchers. Tho tKwer of territorial superintendent are unlimited In some respect. He can foist a new school law upon the people every year at his own sweet will.

b. &-SX AITEE A SWOBDITSE A "GLORIOUS" FISHING TRIP IN THE BAY OF FUNDY. "Waves Uko the Coney Island Toboggan Slide Tho Correspondent "Slled Ilia Garment" In the Tall of a Storm TLo Skipper's Tale of "Woe. I had longed to go Bwordflshing all niy life. I knew the creature was flavorous, gamy and good, for I bad eaten savory bits of him broiled. I knew that he car ried on his pugnacious snout a sword of polished ivory as lively as an Italian's sti letto and as heavy as King Arthur's ex caliber. I knew he would fight like a cov boy, and was from eight to fifteen feet long. So I wanted to go niter him, or I foolishly thought 1 did. I was talking in this way on a pile of stone they called a wharf when a skipper spoke up and says: "Yon goes a feller after 'em. W'y don't you go along 'or "im?" Ho blew on his fingers a shrill pipe one long blast and two short as a signal, and received a similar answering horn. The Bails luffed, the sloop hove to and came around, and my whistling agent put me aboard from his own dory. ON BOAKD THE BLOOr. The sloop tacked again and laid herself right down before the wind. It seemed nice. Each wave was about as long as the sloop, and rolled up from toward Spain. It seemed like the corduroy toboggan slide at Coney Island. It suggested going to heaven in a hammock. We introduced ourselves. The skipper's name, I had' been told, was Hallibut, but after I had oalled him by it about a hundred times I found out that it was Hurlbut. He was at tho helm and held the reins. Another man stood on a little platform about thirty feet up tho mast, and it was his business To discover the fish and tell tho captain which way to steer. A third man was standing right out on the end of the bowsprit with a har poon In his right hand, a sharp, ugly look ing steel weapon six or seven feet long. "This is glorious!" I shouted. "Heyf" sung out the skipper, above the whistling wind. "Glorious!" I repeated. "Tall of a btorm," he shouted back, "sha'n't gifc no fish." I went over where ho stood. There were two vessels like our own a little distance off, with men in the crosstrees and on the bow. The captain tacked, and as the boom came around yelled out, 'K out for your hoadl" I looked out for it, and then I ob served for the first time that he seemed in trouble. He was swearing in a low, gentle barltono voice uninterruptedly, mildly, with quite a surprising range of epithet and of metaphor. It was the most serene Srofanity I had ever heard. It had wheed ng and even pathetic accents, liko a New foundland dog that is being petted. "What is it, slrf I ventured to ask. "That infernal son of a sculpin on the lee quarter stole a fish f'm mo yiste'day," said he in the same subdued voice. "I'd like to whale 'em so't ho couldn't Btan'," and then ho blasphemed again in a foolish and ridiculous voice. "Did ho take it right off tho deck?" I asked. He cast a withering glance at mo, swore a little and remarked: "Ho did not, but ho might just as well uv. It was my fish. It wan't moro'n ton rod ahead uv us, and we wua Jest a goin' to gather 'im." I said I "never considered a deer mine till I'd shot him." "BIGHT OFF'M HIS DECK." Ho grunted fivo or six times In a way that was sad to see, embroidering that ut terance with an arabesque of profanity uite dazzling to hear, and added: "llul a deer! Well ho might git away f'm ye, mightn't he? An' a swordfish couldn't git away f'm me, could he? That's the differ ence, nin't it? Just as Boon that win to livered measly cuss had took it right off' m my deck." "Starboard bow!" yelled the man in the rigging. "Hello!" said the captain in a surprised way, and put his helm a-port. Tho sloop listed to tho leeward, and the man on the bow held up his harpoon at arm's length and gazed anxiously down into the wator. 'A writhing convulsion chug tho sharp iron had left his hand and gone into tho sea. Tho rope rattled after, the sloop came around into the wind, a boat was tossed over til guards by a man and a boy, and the chase began. Answering my inquiries tho skipper said: "He'll run till he tires out, then he'll como to tha surface, and they will haul him up to the boat, knock him in tho head with an ax and pull him aboard If they are strong onough. If ho's too big they'll tow'm over here." Wo were almost out of sight of land. Tho sloop wasrunniugahurdlerace, jump ing over waves as high as a house. Sho pitched fearfully and sho rolled awfully. Tobogganing was tiring me out. It sug gested going in a hammock to the other place. My stomach was queasy. "When are we going ashore?" I asked. "When we get some fish," said the bkip- per. "This is glorious." 1 Etood up a minute longer heroically, and then I calmly lay down in tho bottom of the vessel in ray white flannels, oh, be loved reader! In my white flannels. It was wet, and mackerel had apparently just been shoveled out of it, but I did not care. 1 was indifferent as to what became of my clothes or myself. The skipper began to sing. 1 cast one imploring look at him and "Bring a bucket, Pete," he exclaimed to the other boy. Pete did as ho was told. "Say! Yor siling yer garmintsl" re marked the skipper. I tried to remember the things he had said about tho unscru pulous mariner who stole hi swordfish. Tho sloop lay wallowing in the trough of the sea, and I lay wallowing in the trough of the sloop. We got ashore some time toward night, aid after lying on a pile of boards for a couple of hours I got so that I could stand up and even speak a few words. Seeing the Infant fiend passing up the street iu the gloaming I asked him if they got the Rwordfish. "No, sir," he said. "Didn't ye know he got away f'm us and took the harpoon? That's what made tho cap'n so all-fired mad coming home!" I shall not go swordfishing again till I feel better. Grand Menan (N. 13.) Cor. New York World. A Man Who Ate Iron. In The British Magazine for 17-J6 there is aa account of Reeves Williams, a native of Cardigan, calling himself "tho Man Os trich." He performed various gastronomic feats before the public who paid sixpence each to witness the eddying spectacle. He first swallowed four j es of iron, each an inch and a quarter lo; and three-quarters of an inch thick. Thei. he swallowed, by way of dessert and with apparent relish, stones, coach noils, halfpence and cttar trifles. Knn for the Pur. He (about to tako his departure) Where did I leave my hat?

The prairie land which covers a con siderable portion of tho Okefenokw swamp is a very remarkable formation, and is, 1 am told, peculiar to this swamp. It is open land, entirely free from tim ber, and stretching away as far as the eye can reach in even direction. It has most of the characteristics of a, huge in land sea except the waves. Interspersed here and there in this hnge prairie are small patches f high, dry ground of variable size and heavily timbered, called cow houses. I am unable to ascertain the propriety of this name, unless it be that the cattle, deer and other animals eeek these places for shelter and to get out of the water.. The surface of these prairies is cov ered with a deposit of decayed vege tation that has been accumulating for centuries, and is called mack. This varies in thickness from four to ten feet, with water beneath, and below the water sand. This singular formation gives to tho swamp its name of Trem bling Earth. It will support ;h- weight of th average man if he keeps moving onward, but if he pauses an intant he commences to sink, and may go through to his waist or over his head. At every step the water oozes up around the feet, while the muck will tremble and quiver for ds around. FLOUR DEPOT. C.

It stretches away before the eye in even direction until only limited by the hori zon, its perfect stillness only broken by the occasional bellow of some huge alli gator or the far distant scream of some unknown bird. Here and there can be seen the track left behind by some hunt er, where possibly years ago he had laboriously poled his canoe along in pur suit of game, the path as distinct and fresh now as if only made yesterday. All around fish of endless species and sizes can be seen swimming and darting about, while not infrequently the eye may fall upon some immense alligator or snake sunning himself upon the sur face of the muck and water, or slowly sinking out of sight as soon as he is dis covered. This description conveys a slight, but at best a very imperfect, idea of the praine land of this swamp.

Bho Cfe&sed Him Tbrensh the Streets and Captured Hlza for tho Tellce. Mrs. J. a Headrickson, of 490 Wabash avenue, had a terrific encounter with a col ored burglar. She is tall, slightly built, about 50 years old, but is full of pluck and endurance. Her struggle with the burg lar in the dining room, her desperate chase and ultimate capture of the thief, form a thrilling chapter such as falls to the lot of few women or men. At 2:30 o'clock Tnesday mornintr Mrs. Hendrickson was awakened by a noise in the parlor. Without thinking of danger the brave woman, clad only in her night dress, and without a weapon, rnshed into the darkened room. By the dim light cast by a bull's-eye lantern she saw standing in the middle of tho room a burly negro, whoso repulsive face and glittering eyes were faintly outlined by the lantern. Mrs. Hendrickson threw herself at tho burglar with all her strength, fastening her arms around his waiat. "Let gol" yelled the thief, dropping his lantern. But the woman only tightened her hold. Then a desperate struggle for the mastery fol lowed. Around the room went tho burglar and the plucky woman. Chairs were over turned, tables upeet, bric-a-brac on the mantel thrown down and crushed under foot. Over chairs and under tho table rolled and struggled the unequally matched pair. In their wrestling the win dow, which was opened, was reached. Hero the burglar made a supreme effort, and broke away from the grasp of tho de termined woman. Out of the window ha jumped, striking unharmed on the earth eight feet below. Mrs. Hendrickson's blood was up. She had noticed that the negro was in his stock ing feet, and wisely surmised that he had left his shoes outside and would stop for them ere continuing his flight. She dashed through the hall and out of the front door. As sho wa3 running down the steps the burglar jumped over the fence. Then be gan a chase tho like of which is not often seen. Mrs. Hendrickson's screams for help aroused the neighborhood. Windows flew up and heads popped out. "What's tho matter?" yelled a dozen voices. Out in tho street were seen two flying figures. Ono was that of a man bareheaded and sprint ing like all possessed. Right on his heels, her long hair wildly streaming in the cool night air, was a slen der, whito robed figure. She, too, was run ning at tho top of her speed. Tho burglar ran north toward Eldredge court. The pant ing woman reached forward end grabbed his coat tail. Thero was a momentary halt. Then the scoundrel turned and struck his relentless pursuer a stinging blow in tho face, Mrs. Hendrickson released her hold and the negro then ran toward Michigan avenue, his intention evidently being to run across tho lake front and conceal him self in tho maze of cars standing in tho Il linois Central yam. The fearless woman continued the excit ing chase. Up Michigan avenue ran pur suer and purbued. Neither thought of the wire fence that surrounds the purk, anil the negro dashed headlong into it. Mra. Hendricks fell on top of htm, but sho did not lose her presenco of mind. Again her arms encircled the big negro's waist, but this time ho mado futile efforts to break her grasp, which seemed of steel. Whilo sho was screumlng and holding him Charles Billinger, a messenger, camenlong. "Get an officer, quickl" screamed Mra. Hendrickson. Tho messenger scampered away and soon retnrned with an officer, who relieved the now utterly exhausted woman of her dusky charge. Chicago Herald. A Chinese I-over. A Chinese prince, nominally attache to tho legation, fell in lovo with an American damsel residing near Dupont circle. Ho gave her enormously valuable present?, all of which sho accepted with complacency, but when ho proposed matrimony she laughed at him. "Why," said she, "do you suppose that I would marry a man with a pigtail V Whereupon tho enamored prince delib erately went and cut off his pigtaiL Per haps you do not know what such an act meant. It signified tho abandonment of his princely porogatlves nay, more, his banishment from tho empiru of China. And after ho had made tho sacrifice tha young woman again refused him with fccorn. Early next morning a body was pfen hanging out of n window at the legation. It is supposed that it was that of tho prince, but the mystery was never solreil. The Chinese embassy's ground is Chiua territory, and an invasion of it by tht ?olice would be a casus belli with China. Tashington Letter. The DlTlne Sarnh nnl Jlrr Trnnki.

THE LAST OF THE VETERANS, Ono of th Iw SarrlTom of Thin Coua try's Second VTar -rrlth Eacland. Gen. Abraham Dally, in fall uniform and with nuraorotu medals pinned upon his breast, was tho only veteran of 1813 who turned out to do honor to Washing ton's birthday, and he was a guest of tha Veteran Zoaavea. The absenca of other was so conspicuous as to cauto people to ask, "What baa becomo of tha rtst ol tha company" Tho fact is thatr death has gathered in the brave defenders of tho Union, who rallied around its standard when it was for the second time threatened by England's foes, until thero Is only a remnant of two or three left. A few years ago it wan tha practice of the proprietors of tho Fifth Avenue, tho Continental, or some of the other hotels, to give the veterans a dinner on each of the holidays; but they hava been neglect ed in this particular for a year or two. One reason for this neglect is that other than the veterans took tho opportunity to get a free dinner, having no claim upon tho generosity of tho giver of tho feast other than that they wero acquainted with some of the veterans. Hence this way of remembering tho old hcroea fire or air times a year with a feast ultimately bo came vexatious, and tho Lelands and oth ers could not be blamed for discontinuing tho custom. The reunions of tha "Veter ans of lsli" have each year falleu off in attendance, however, and it is doubtful if there will ever be another. Gen. Dally has seemed to surpass all of the others in physical strength as well as in length of life. He is ia bis alaety-fourth year and more hale and hearty than mot men at 70. He was born in this city, but for more than forty years has lived in tho eaAtern district of Brooklyn. Ho inherits longevity, his father living until he was 03 years old. Gen. Daily's wife, who was Ann Norman, came from a similar liaoage of sturdy and prolific stock. She lived for sivty-uve yer after her marriage, ami raised a family of fifteen children.

The matter of elevator etiquette haying struggled to tho top again the views of one man upon the subject may be interesting. "In the first place," said a man to whom the question was submitted, "I would say that under no circumstances should ladles expect men to removo their hats if there be the slightest suspicion of a draught in the elevator, and my own experience has been that they are seldom without it. To Bay nothing of lesser and simply annoying ailments, some of the most serious mala dies are traced by physicians to a no more serious cause than a brief chilling draught. In the second place the question would be where the elevator is situated. "If in a business building, where people are supposed to go for business purposes, and where the observation of social formB and ceremonial etiquette is not important, and perhaps not even sensible, I would say that men should not be asked to remove their hats, and I do not think that they are disposed to do so. When wo come to a hotel elevator the question grows finer. There are hotels where it would be a little pretentious and almost out of place to in dulge in such a ceremony. In tho smaller country hotels, for instance, and in hotels generally where there is little pretension to social style, the removal of hats in ele vators would hardly seem to bo necessary. 4?In some places I think it would bo even impolite, on the principle observed by the German prince, who. when his rustic truest f poured out his coffee in a saucer, did the same thing himself, that the untutored fellow might not suffer from his blunder. On the other hand, in hotels, where there i Is a general observance of social forms, I think that if, as already said, there be no draught in the elevator, the hat should be removed in the presence of ladies, and my experience is that it is an invariable cus tom for men to do so in such places. I may add, however, that it is a custom which ob tains only in America. In England and on the continent no gentleman thinks of do ing such a thing." New York Times. Protection Against Tornadoes. When trying to escape from a tornado never run to the northeast, east or south cast. Never take refuge in a forest or a grove of trees, or near any object that may be overturned by tho wind. A frame build ing is safer than one built of brick or stone. The former is more elastic and holds to gether longer; the latter goes down in the first crash, and the debris is whirled into a heap in the center of the foundation. In a frame structure the cellar is the safest place, but in a brick or stono building it is tho most perilous. In the former case tho debris is carried away from the foundation, while in tho latter instance tho cellar is filled with it. The tornado cave offers absolute securi ty to life and limb, and no means of pro tection can replace it for that purpose. As regards protection to property, no building can be mado sufficiently large, strong, high or low to resist tho force of the tornado's vortex. There is no changing tho path of the tornado by the emplovment of explo sives or by any artificial barrier. To con template the dispersion of the cjoud by tho use of any electrical contrivance is also idle. All buildings should bo constructed as would be done without tho knowledge of the tornado, and then protected by legit imate insurance. Protection must be ac complished by organized capital, the safe ty of one being assured by the legitimate and successful co-operation of many. Tho writer strongly advocated this method of protection during his tornado investiga tions in the west in 1879, and now several million dollars' worth of property is thus insured every year. Lieut. J. P. Finley in Forum. Tho State's Relation to Marriage. To the state marriage is a civil contract between a man and woman. It can be nothing else or more than that. And the only interest of the state, as state, is that all the rights and duties involved in a civil contract shall be maintained to the end of public order. The moment that it at tempts anything bejond this it is a tres passer on personal rights and works only mischief. It is hardly matter for dispute that those who have claimed to bo acting for God in political matters in the past havo been authors of cruelty and injustice. Most writers on "divorce reform" as sume that the one great end to be aimed at is to prevent divorce by any and all means. Their highest, their one ideal, seems to be to keep people tied together without re gard to consequences. But it is not a question of the ideal. It is as to what the state has a right to do under present actual conditions. Men should seek tile ideal in all departments of life, not in marriage only. But should the state decide on what that ideal is and en force it always by pains and penalties? Is this not rather a matter for school and church and individual striving? It is not the right and duty of the state to forco people either to marry or to stay married. Neither of these is the end, so far as stato jurisdiction is concerned. It is for tho state simply to guard the rights of the in dividual parties to this contract, precisely as in the case of any other. Rev. M. J. Savage in Forum. The Ctnr as an Art Collector. The czar of Russia is one of the greatest art collectors in tho world. The acquisi tion of a unique painting or a priceless bron7o gives him more joy than the an nexation of a slice of Central AsiHn terri tory. His study at Gatschina is a miniature museum, in which all branches of art aro represented. His majesty is partial to tho modern French school of painting, though he does all ho can to encourage Russian artistic talent. In all that concerns art ho has tho full sympathy of his charming consort, who is herself not only a collector, but an accomplished painter and sketcher. Tho czarina admires Meissonier more than any other living artist, and is never tired of copying his pictures. The czar is not a selfish amateur. Although ho makes all his palaces treasure houses of art he still aids the public museums in money and in kind, and so crowded with objects are the existing institutions that his majesty i3 about to havo built in St. Petersburg a national museum which shall bo devoted to Russian contemporary art. News and Post. Many a prosperous business man, whose credit is good and who mcms to be gener ous with his family, falls into the habit of settling his household bills in such a way as to prevent his wife from having cash at her individual disposal. The result of this system, more or less general, is that many women of well to do families are ridicu lously poor so far as concerns their own Durstts. Mrs. Alexander's Real Name.
