Hasardoo Venter of s Bui of
American Missionaries.
Tbe recent hmtal batcher of Chris
tians in China does Dot seem to deter
other missiona
ries from seeking
dangerous fields
in uncivilized
and semioivil
ized countries for
the spread of the
gospel. In spite

HKV. FKTBR C. SCOTT.
from Philadelphia for (ho region of the
Sudan, tho most dangerous mission field
in the world.
The party is under the leadership of
he Eev. Peter Cameron Scott, au en
thneiastio and determined young clergy
man. He has spent seven of the 28 years
of his life in Africa, two years of that
time in the interior of the dark conti
nent. Among those who will accompany
him on his perilous mission is his sis
. ter. Mies Margaret Scott, who has re
cently returned from missionary work
on the Kongo river. Before beginning
their pilgrimage to darkest Africa they
expressed the belief that they would be
successful in overcoming the supersti
tions and bitter prejudices of tbe sav
ages and were full of hope and courage.
It is the purpose of Mr. Scott and bis
associates to land nt Mombasa, on the
eastern coast of Africa, and proceed at
once to Mount Kilitna-N jaro, where a
station will bo established. From this
point the missionaries will work. north
ward along the mountains of the Sudan.
Little if any Christian missionary
work has hitherto been done in this vast
region of eastern Africa, where there
nro 90,000,000 people wholly without
tho teachings of the gospel. It is ac
koowledged to be the most perilous mis
sion field in the world, both on account
' of tho climate and the bitter hatred and
hostility of the Moslems, who hold al
most undisputed sway in that portion of
tho dark continent. Facing tbe dangers
of disease, the savage natives and the
bloodthirsty and marauding Arabs, this
: little band of Christian teachers carry
their lives in their hands, and that some
or all cf them will be sacrificed on the
si tar of their devotion seems more than
probable.
HE REFUSED TO DRINK.
Colonel Wllsoa Drclined to Imbibe With

limit Colonel Wilson was recently trans
ferred from Washington to the northeast
division, which includes New York and
Now England.
Colonel Wilson has had the rather
- unique and, for an army officer, unusu
al experience of having refused to drink
with two presidents of the United
States. The first occasion was at the
close of the long and fatiguing day of
Clpveland's first inauguration, in con
ducting tbe details of which Colonel
Wilson had an important part. When it
was all over the president suggested that
: they take a "quiet little drink" togeth
er. A decanter of whisky was pro
duced. ... With a moral courage not less
conspicuous than bad been his physical
courage in the time of war the colonel
firmly declined the invitation of tbe na
tion's chief executive, saying, "I can
nut join you in a drink of whisky, for I
have never drunk spirits and never mean
, to do so." Tbe colonel therefore pledged
tbe president's health in a glass of apol
linnris. He bad a similar experience on
the occasion of Harrison's inauguration.
As before, the president, after con
gratulating him upon the successful
management of the ceremonies, suggest-
. ed that they take a drink together in
honor of the occasion. Colonel Wilson
again declined, and drank President
Harrison's health in a glass of water.
Colonel Wilson has had a rather
brilliant military career and combines
in a high degree the distinguishing
traits of a soldier and a gentleman. He
was born in the District of Columbia,
and is about 65 years of age. He entered
, West Point in 1855, being appointed
from Washington territory, and gradu
ated in 1860, joining the engineer corps,
with which he has since been connected.
He served with distinction all through
the war of the rebellion and was suc
cessively promoted for gallant and mer
itorious service in the battle of Gaines
Mill, Vs., at Malvern Hill, during the
campaign around Mobile, in the capture
of Spanish Fort and at Fort Blakeley,
Ala. His present rank is that of lieu
tenant colonel of engineers. During
President Cleveland's two terms he has
held the position of superintendent of
pnhlio buildings and grounds at Wash
ington. For four years he was superin
tendent of the United -fixates Military

TMK LATE MftS. ASTOR.
Cat Off la the Flower of tier Youth, She
lied In a 8 trau go Land. .
Had Mrs. William Waldorf Astor
lived and died in Now York, her nat
ural and proper home, her death would
have been reckoned little short of a gen
cral calamity. -.
As her husband saw fit to expatriate
himself and cultivate an indifference,
if not a positive hostility, to everything
American, except tho huge income he
derives from his native toil, Mrs. As
tor's death will cause a slight sensation
in England and a faraway feeling of re
gret in Now York. .
Mamie Pnul was scarcely fitted to be
tho wife of tho cold, proud, sensitive
man who was head of tho greatest lam'
ily and fortune in American.
Sho was an extremoly simplo and un
affected girl, who cared as little as pos
sible for pomp and ceremony and still
less for gewgaws and jewels. r .
She would have made an admirable
wife for a business man of moderate
means and would have adorned a cot
tage with more grace and interest than
she displayed in presiding over the
splendors of Cliveden.
Sho was forced by her husband into a
foolish quarrel with tho other branch of
the Astor family, and after that was just
as willing to live abroad as among her
own kinsfolk.
Her married life could not have been
a disappointment, though, for she had
four charming children and was amost
loving and devoted mother.
Cut off in the flower of her youth and
beauty and dying in a strange land, her
short career may serve as a lesson on the
mutability of fate to those young wo-
f men who cried their eyes out with envy
and disappointment when her engage
ment to W ilhe Astor was announced.
The Astor family certainly deserves
all the commiseration it should receive.
for it has been getting sumo pretty bard
and undeserved knocks of late. Cholly

WOMEN IN BRITISH POLITICS.
They Are Conducting a Three Cornered
Campaie for the Premiership.
The influence of women in the high
places of British politics has not been
conspicuous in this generation. This fact
adds interest to the particularly warm
feminine campaign which has been
waged ever since Tory minds became
convinced of the probability of an early
return of the Conservati ve party to pow
er. The prize which tho fair disputants
are struggling for is no less than the
premiership of England. Three of tbo
most brilliant women in Great Britain
are the leaders of rival hosts which with'
in tho higher circles of Tory society are
keenly pressing the claims of their re
spective champions.
These ladies are the Duchess of Devon
shire, tbe Marchioness of Salisbury
Miss Balfour. It is not an exaggeration
to say that the ambition for the party's
leadership of the three men whose names
these ladies bear has been allowed to
rest in their bands as far as seeking sup
port within the party ia concerned. It
is no vulgar political canvass, but rival
ry none the less genuine and important
Those who know tbe three women credit
the Duchess of Devonshire with greater
skill and cleverness in political affairs
than her husband or indeed most-of tbe
other party leaders, but most people
agree that her present task ia beyond
her powers.
The situation most favors Mis Bal
four. The ardor with which she is
championing her brother's cause is ex
citing a good deal of admiration, albeit
she succeeded somewhat in offending
her aunt, the Marchioness of Salisbury,
by the warmth of her advocacy. It must
be admitted that Mr. Balfour's follow
ing within tbe party is now consider
ably stronger than Lord Salisbury's.

Number of Pottage Stamps TJsed.
Two hundred million 3 cent postage
stamps that are reported as worthless
by postmasters throughout the country
have been called in by tbe postmatstor
general and will be destroyed. Although
200,000,000 seems to be an enormous
number, it is really trifling compared
with tbe number of stamps used by the
American people each year and would
last less than 30 days. It requires about
13,000,000 stamps a day to oonduct tbe
correspondence of our population, or a
total of 4,880,000,000 for the year.

JOHN BURNS ANO AMERICA,
While the EnslLlimaa Rays Koine Bang
Things His Criticisms Are Mslnly Jn.t.
Mr. John Burns, tho labor man, nft
er his visit to Chicago, called that big
monstrosity a pocket edition of hell. Hi)
tins said ninny ot her envngo things about
this country, Tho Chicago remark secmS
to be rather severe on a locality that
Bums has never seen, bnt his other un
complimentary remarks nro mainly true.
Ho says there is nothing in London as
villainous as our tenement houses. That
is quite accurate The thing for us to
do is to change tho tenement house sys
tem, not to advise Bums to go home
and go to work. Ho says onr oftlcinls
nro in many oases dishonest rascals aud
also bloodsuckers. Nobody doubts that
now, not uvea tho men who have made
money by fighting tor rottouueas in this
town.
Ho criticises Mr. Cornelius Vamler
hilt's big house on Fifth avenue. His
critic;! ia as just as anything outside
of the Tun Commandments. Tbo bonso
looks liko a big hotel, and a badly tlo
tigned hotel at that. It also looks a lit
tle like a pretentions almshouse. It is
not ns bad as the Huntingtou house on
the other side of tbe street, for this rea
sonnothing could bo as bad as the
Huntingtou house. Ho sots in excellent
epigrammatio fashion: "Schools splen
did, libraries excellent, jails too good,
roads bad, streets worse, drainage the
same, art museums good for tbe age oi

What Is there false about that? We
ought to be glad to have Bams cotno

GLADSTONE'S LITTLE JOKE.
The
Eeproduetton of an Old Mag-aslne
Article Sets the Critics Agog.
Mr. Gladstone has played unconscious
ly a capital littlu joko upon bis critics,
literary aud political, and is said to bo
enjoying it as much as anybody. Fifteen
years ago he wrote tor a now defunct
magazine an article entitled "The Evan
gelical Movement; Its Parentage, Prog
ress and Issue. " This was recently un
earthed by the editor of tho present
Evangelical Mogozino, who, with the
author's permission, republished it in
the December number. The critics, with
ono accord, treated tbe article as new
and praised or sneered according to tbeir
political beliefs, which is quite a com
mon way of writing literary criticisms
here. The Liberals, of course, found in
the article proof that Mr. Gladstone's
intellect had improved, like good wine,
with age, and , tbo Tories, with equal
certainty, detected signs of mental de
cay. The Radicals, too, drew comfort
from it as showing that tbe Grand Old
Man in his retirement was more eager
than over to sever the connection be
tween church and state, while the Whig
churchmen discovered in this remarkable
articlo abundant arguments in favor of
tbe maintenance of the union between
the state and church.
As a matter of fact, tbo Grand Old
Man now writes little, although be is
bombarded with applications from edi
tors in all parts of tbo world. Eo ia like
ly to write still less for the outside
world if it be true, as rumored, that he
has commeuced dictating his memoirs
to his wife. The greater part of every
day is still devoted to reading theoloc
icai works from bis already famous li'
brary, and collectors will learn with in
terest that he makes copious marginal
notes upon every book which passes
through his hands. Excbanga
Slates Banished From Boston Schools.
Tbo reasons assigned by the school
committee for the discontinuance of
slates, slate pencils aud sponges in the
publio schools and tbe substitution of
paper, lead pencils and rubber orasers
in tbeir placed are as follows:
First. A light gray mark upon a
slightly darker gray surface is more or
less indistinct and trying to tbe eye
sight
Second. The resistance of tbe bard
pencil upon the bard slate is trying to
the muscles, and tbe resistance to which
tbe muscles are thus trained must be
overcome when beginning to write with
pencil or pen upon paper.
Third. Tbe use of slates, slate pen
cils and sponges is a very uncleanly cus
tom and leads to and establishes very
uncleanly habits. Boston Herald.
A Brilliant Scheme.
A brilliant scheme was adopted the
other day by a theatrical company
which found itself stranded at Dayton,
O., and its next engagement at Cleve
land. A plan was made for tbo arrest
of one of tbe members of tbe company
on the charge of opening a letter bo-
longing to another member. The ac
cused was taken before the United
States commissioner at Cleveland, where
the other members of the company were
subpoenaed as witnesses. They of course
secured his acquittal and also their foes,
amounting to $6.35 apiece. It was tho
most profitable engagement they have
played this season, but tbo commission
er is willing to bet tbat they can't play
it on him again. Troy Times.

OUT AMERICAN SUGAR
It Should De Used in Prefer
ence to China's Product ,
KJCCOl'KAGK HOME INDUSTRIES
Every American Should Iemand the
Native Product and Re That
. M Gets It. ' ' , ,
It is a singular thing that, while the
inhabitants of the United Mates are a
most prosperous people and consume
more of boUl tho necessities aud lux
uric of life, generally speaking, they
sro behind the Knglish in the cou
sumption of sugar.
In 1300-01 tho Bugar used in the
United Kingdom was an amount equal
to 781 1-3 pounds per capita, while the
figures show an average, consumption
in the United States of only 601 1-3
pounds per capita.
What tho reasons are for this great
difference have pustled many per
sons, aud we must look carefully for
them if we are to find the causes.
Amwioan workmen receive more pay
than the laborers of any other country,
aud ns a rule have the money to obtain
for their table everything wanted. It
seems fair to assume that the older the
country mid oivilintlon the more oaru-
tully are tbe questions of household
economy and hygiene studied, -sud if
this is true why can we not argue from
the premise stated that we have failed
to a great degree in discovering the
wholesouitmess and the economy of
usiug large amounts of sugar?
Looking at this question from tho
national side wo see some reasons why
we should be heavy consumers of
sweets and again we seo that we are
obliged to buy most of the sugar we
use from other countries, and we owe
it to ourselves to carefully consider
what we as individuals can do to stim
ulate the sugar producing and sugar
manufacturing and sugar consuming
industries of onr country.
Tbe United States sent out of the
country in 1803 the enormous sum of
116, 000, 000 for sugar, aud this a mount
if it could only have been retained at
homo would have done macb to make
this country prosperous and would
have been a great help during the
awful panio of the last two years.
The policy of the United States has
been very clearly determined to be of
protection to home industry aud home
manufactures, and whether we oon
suier tne recent tana laws as wise or
unwise the fact remains that they are
unpopular aud do nut fill the bill.
Tho question of protection is popular
and if tbe voice of the people is the
voice of wisdom wo may all be pardon
ed for tbe maintenance of those opin
ions which will help to shape tbo do
mestio and foreigu policies of the
United States for the ensuing genera
tion. .
If it were necessary that we should
buy s staple like sugar abroad in order
that we might sell our snrplus of other
products we might perhaps as well buy
sugar as anything else, but this is not
the case. We enn sell our products at
the world's price, and tbat is what we
do always when we export; if we can
take buck coin instead of other prod
ucts that under the right conditions
we can rqise at home we are so much
the better off and the imports of
money will asiit us in maintaining
our currency without having to pay
such prices for our credit as we have
recently paid.
Again we oome to tbe question of
practical importance: How can you
as a citizen do anything to promote the
objects the country desires to obtain?
In th first place, what kind of sugar
do you consume yourself?
Charity and wisdom begin, or should
begin, at home.
If yon buy sugar, do yon ever in
quire as to whether you are getting
that of domestic production or manu
facture? If you do not you have neg
lected your duty as an American citi
zen and yon should remove the beam
of carelessness from your own eye be
fore yon censure your representatives
and senators for overlooking . some
things that might promote the welfare
of your country.
It is true that we not only import
immense quantities of raw sugar but
on the Pacific coast a pernicious trade
has recently sprung up in the manu
factured sugar of China, many retail
grocers handling it surreptitiously.
Think of it, in a section of the
United States as sparsely capitalized !
as the West coast, actually sending its
money to a notoriously cheap labor
country for an article of household con
sumption which is rjfiued and produced
at home.
ui wnat use are sucn legislative en
actments as the Chinese exclusion act
if our people, the very ones who were
most clamorous for the prevention of
the competition of cheap labor, are go
ing to suffer their bard earned coin to
be sent to China for sugar refined
there?
Tbe idea that the price of sugar is
kept at its present low figures on the
Pacific coast 'by tho importation of
Hong Kong sugar is an erroneous one,
for whenever the American refineries
advance the Chinese importers have
invariably followed. If American
granulated sugar was selling at say
nine cents today the price of foreign
would be about the same. Tbe truth
is that supply and demand makes tbe
world's market on sugar as it does on
wheat and other great staples, and
when the New York and London mar
kets advance or decline the price of all
sugars, either American or Chinese, is
immediately affected.
Ask your dealer for American-made
sugar and do not le afraid to ask him
if he handles the China goods, and if
he does read him a lecture on his poll
ta and morals, and you will have ful
filled part of your duty as a ctizen.
Many leading stores now display signs,
"We Handle tbe American Refined
Sugars Only."
: From a hygienic standpoint it should
be remembered cholera is now raging

All . the sugar that ooiucs to the

Uiere probably cloe to cholera pa

The sugar business of this country is
largely iu the hands of a great combt
nation, but the reason for this i that
the policy of our legislators hna been
so parsimonious that instead of build
ing up the small factories for tho mail
ufaoture of beet sugar, the bounty has
been withdrawn and our people have
been discouraged iu working up the in
dustry.
Time will oome when in every state
there will be refineries aud no suction

therefore, you wish to live to seo tho
