The Head Come To Life,
1 ikm inc ; ii am , Conn., March 7.
Marv A. HurrwKK married recently
in Santa Cruz, N. M., to O. S
Moses. When a child sbe lived
with a family named Andrews in
this place, but one morning kIic
was missing. Search was made
and nieces of her clothing were
found strewn along the Xangatuck
Hivev. It was supposed that she
had committed suicide and scare!
was made for her IkmIv, but it was
never found. Many people
suspected foul play, lut no evi
dence of this ever came to light
the only grounds for the supposi
tion lienig the cruelty of Andrews
The news of her marriage was
therefore, a surprise, as this was
the lirst that had been heard of
her since her disapiiearancc. The
cause of her disappearance was
that a brother, hearing of her
miserable life, alxlucted her.
Transfer of Army Headquarters.
Washington, March 7. A mem
ber of the Kansas congressional
delegation had a conference with
Secretary Proctor to-day in regard
to the projMjsed transfer of the
headquarters of 'the department
of the Missouri from Leavenworth
to St. Iuis, and the secretary
consented to defer action a few
days. . The reason for the . pro
posed change is that it is regarded
as undesirable ts have the depart
ment headquarters and post bead
quarters at tee same .place. The
secretary has under consideration
also the transfer of the head
quarters from Vancouver barracks
to Portland, Or., but there is no
likilihood of an immediate change.

Watered Whiskey Seized in Chicago
Chicago, March 7. Collector
Mamer has seized a number of
barrels of whiskey t;e!ccted from
various houses doing a wholesale
whiskey business here, and the
peculiar methods they have been
following to meet competition in
the trade have at least the element
of- novelty. -The collector said:
We discovered that a minuter oi
dealers are in the habit of reducing
tbe proof-standard of w hiskey and
selling it to their customers fully
20 per cent below the proof guar
an teed bv the United States
certificate. After the whiskey is
tiuaecd and the proof found to
a certain standard, 20 or ."H
he
per
the
cent of it is withdrawn from
Itarvels which :uv thv ;i
with water. The puajrer's certi
ficate thus gtsttes that the whiskey
is of a certain standard, when in
fact it ih adulterated, the Oovcrii-
ment stamp aiding in the perpe
tration of the fraud on the cus
tomer. We seized :t number of
barrels thus adulterated and have
sent to Washington a detailed re
port of the whole matter. The
parties interested claim tnat tne
practice is generally followed ami
is necessary in consequence of the
keen eomiietition m the whiskev
trade."

How tie Bathed a Sailor's Sword
Cots In Salt Water
New York, March ' C The
World prints at length a statement
made bv Fireman "Walker, of the
United States corvette Enterprise,
regarding the condnct of Com
mander McCalla toward him.
Walker, it will be remembered,
is the man who was cut down bv
McCalla with a sword. Walker
swears he was not drunk ;.that he
was put on watch in place ot a
man who was drunk and raising
a biur row w hen McCalla came on
board from a ball ashore. Lieu
tenant Mulligan reported both
Walker and the mate for drunken
ness. Walker, in the meantime,
had lieen chained up to a gun
He endeavored to explain to
McCalla that he was not drunk,
but tbe latter ordered the officer
of the watch to cut him down
The officer hesitating, McCalla
sent for his sword and did it 'him
self, amid the loud murmurs from
the crew. When Walker was
lying senseless and bleading on
the deck, McCalla had him doused
repeatedly with salt water,
Walker tells of .the repeated
punishment inflicted ujton him,
causelessly and says he was finally
forced to desert the ship to save
his life.
From the actions of Met 'alia
and other commissioned officers
Walker says he believes they
wanted him to desert, so lie would
be out of the way and prevent a
possible investigation when the
Enterprise returned home. At
every port entered McCalla would
pay him all the money due up to
that time.
Roads. To Be Built This Year.
"The, Engineering News" of
this week will say : The map of
prospective railway construction
m 18tK) shows that the work of
railway extension during the com
ing season promises more activity
than in any season since 1887.
The summary of our detailed list
of various enterprises shows T),038
miles of railway partly completed
or in process of construction;
7,041 miles surveyed or under sw
.vey, and 2,831 miles of lines n6t
yet surveyed, but whose projectors
are pushing them with such energy
that the ' prospects seem fair for
the lieginning of actual work liefore
the close of the year. This makes
a total of 14,010 miles of lines in
the United States which have a
prosHct of being completed or
placed under construction before
the close of the year. Tlie total
for Canada is: Construction, 914
miles ; surveys, 438 miles ; pro
jected, 76 miles ; total, 2,118 miles.
As seen by our map, the bulk of
the enterprises now under way are
in the South and Southwest," on
the coal roads of Pennsylvania and
Ohio, and in extreme northwest
of Montana and W'ashington. In
the totals of prospective mileage
for separate States (including all
the classes of work, construction,
surveys and projects), Pennsyl
vania" and Oeorgia stand at the
head with over 000 miles; New
York, Ohio North Carolina and
Tennessee have l)etween 700 and
800 miles on our map, and Texas,
Alabama and Washington between
(00 and 700 wiles. Virginia and
West Virginia show each over 5oo
miles of prospective lines, of which
a large proportion are certain of
completion. Almost all of the
lines in prospect are rather short,
and are generally furthered to de
velop comparatively local in
terests. The majority of lines
shown will so shorten distances or
develop new territory that they
have a ligitimate right to eventual
success.

AFKICAN SLAVES.
A Suggestion for the l'reventiou of
the Horrible Traffic.
One suggestion has lieen made
which is worth mentioning, as
coming from an able writer, savs
Blackwood's Magazine, who, pur
sang and acquainted with West
Africa, has a special right to lie
heard on the question. Dr. Blyden
suggests the establishment of
black regiments with native offi
cers,, under, as we understand him
the British flag, to be stationed at
important trading centers in the
interior. We have been so accus
tomed by writers like the author
of the biography lefore us to con
in-
nect slavery and all the miseries
Africa with Islam alone that we
c apt to lorget what a large
proportion of African slavery is
earrioA mi nmnnir tlir hoatlion
o .
negro tribes who hafe nothing to
do witn Aeumtvt-iiv ; jBeeirriy :
indeed? sfl inherent propensity of '
the race.
Professor Henry Drunimond
says that you cannot send three
negroes with a message but two
of them will seize the third man
and sell him. And the main
object of this domestic slave trade
makes it more horrible still, for a
large proportion of the victims are
purchased for the purpose of sac
rifice, not less than half a million
of lives, it is said, being thus con
sumed yearly. It is sometimes
suggested that the practice of sell
ing prisoner of war at all events
saves them from being massacred,
but there does not seem, to be much
in this argument, since most of the
wars are probably undertaken for
the sake of capturing slaves.
It is obvious, if only from the
vast extent of the regions involved,
that this internal slave trade
could never be counteracted bv
such means as the armed bands
above suggested. The best hope,
probably lies in the gradual opera
tion of the great chartered com
panies, as the British East African
and Niger Company, who will en
courage legitimate industry and,
esiecially if backed up when need
ful by our own (ioveriiinent, will
make war difficult for the triltes
under their control.
