Baltimore, Oct. 1. Autheiitw
information about the rent riots on
Navassa Island ires received last
night in a letter Irom Dr. Smith,
acting superintendent ef the Na
vassa Phosphate Company, who,
with C- W. lloby, mine boss, and
one other oliicers.are the only sur
viving ollicers of the bloody affair.
They have taken refuge " on the
British man-of-war "Forward,"
which came to their assistance.
Dr. Smith writes that on the
morning of the 14th of September
the negroes rose in insurrection
and killed four of them. N.
Foster, Joseph .bales, Jas. Mason,:
Y in. T. Shea, lioby was the first
assaulted in the digging and was
left for dead. At noon the men
congiegated in front of the super
intendent's house and refused to
work. When Jones attempted to
arrest one of the ringleaders he
was knocked down and in a few
minutes a howling mob surround
ed him. He managed to get to
the house, where the other ollicers
had sought shelter, though a vol
ley of rocks and other missies were
hurled at him. He took refuge in
the rear of the superintendent's
house and opened fire on the mob
The battle lasted three hours, with
an occasional negro wounded,
when the inmates were startled bv
the explosion of a dynamite bomb
on the lower porch. This was
soon foiiewd by another, until
there was a continued roar of
dynamite. When the officers at
tempted to seek another shelter
Foster was butchered with knives
and Joseph Fales was chopped to
nieces with jixcs. William Shea
and Jarneh Mahone were also mur
dered. All the murdered men
have been properlv buried. The
npcroos still have possession of the
island.

THE GREAT PROBLEM.
How All the Seieacos Are Fast Re-'
aolTing Themselves into One.
Father Bciry, in the N'.neteinth Century
I am convinced that society must
undergo a transformation or perish .
And it is on this account that every
thoughtful observer must wisn
religion would take up the far
reaching problem of the distribu
tion ot wealth; the relation of
physical science to the property of
the masses; the rights and wrongs
of prosperity; the claims of the in
dividual to be trtuued for his place
in life and recompensed by secure
eld age far the toils ef his years ot
strength iu shart, the whole ques
tion of national civilization on its
human and social side, I cannot
say too emphatically that it seems
to me this thing has not been done,
is yet without a place in our books
of thr-o'ogy, to speak ef, and re
quires deiag in all manner ot ways,
1 anybody thinks it an easj matter,
to be delt with in a few pages of
the treatise Dr. Contractibus, or
healed bj general remarks, how
ever excellent, ob the good ef
uevertv and the evil of riches, I be
lieve that man to be profoundly
mistakei. To find the solution
will task the energy and make
severe demands en the geod will of
our best teachers; nor will they
find it at all unless, while keeping
one eye on the books, they keep
The other on things as tbey are out
side the books.
For all the sciences are now fast
resolving themselves into one the
social science. And all the problems
are resolving themselves even faster
into one the social problem. Do
yeu tell me it is at the bottom re
ligious? I say so, too. But the
terms ef its solution and the matter
about which it is concerned are pri
marily not religious, but of the
present world and of its welfare.
When our Lord said, 'Seek first the
kingdom of God and His justice,
and al'. these things shall be added
to yeu,' He certainly did not
mean, 'and ail these things shall be
denied to you, the workers thnt
have produced them by your owa
hard labor.' "
A SATISTIED Sl'CKEK.
He Preferred Living in the Hud o
Sizzling in a Frying Fay.
Xew York Herald
"Why don't you cultivate a little
style?" asked a Trout of a Sucker
whom he happened to meet. "Why
do you insist on living in this mud
hob and never visit the clear cold
springs? Limber up your body
and hire somebody to get a section
of a rainbow and sprinkle it over
yeu. I would not live like you for
'anything, grubbing away all the
time lor a meat in iuc :uuu. riitj
form a delicious diet. Just look at
that beauty there which has just
dropped on the water. Just watch
me tike him and then envy the life
of a Trout.'--
Saying this the Trout made a
dash lor the fly and seized it. But
the fly had buried initacteci hook,
and on the hook was a line, and ou
the line a rod, and an angler held
the rod: The Trout soon disap
peared from tbo water, and the
next noise he made was when he
was sizzling over a fire . .
"It nay be nice enough to be a
j Treat,' philosophized the Sucker,
i ''bat I would rather be a poor, .
j despised Sucker; vith uo rainbow
attachments, in a mnd bole than a
Trout in a frying pan."
