AMERICA BEDEOOVERED.
The London Times has discov
ered America and seems well
pleased with it. The marvellous
progress of the republic may well
astonish one who is accustomed to
think of the virgin forests and un
broken land that have given form
to the European idea of this coun
try. The Times has discovered
that a great nation fills the wilder
ness where Cooper's Indians and
rangers wandered, and where Dan
iel Boone and his companions
fought the battle of civilization;
that the white race has founded
great cities in the west, and filled
the continent from one shore to
the other.
The Times sees three dangers
ahead for America. Our free land
is gone. A class doomed to pov
erty has been established in the
cities of the east. The influx of
many races puts a -strain on the
assimilating power of the Anglo
American race. These three con
ditions are the basis of the three
problems that, as the Times con
ceives, are the dangers that must
be met and conquered by Amer
ica. The Times judges by the
past, and regards them rather
more lightly and hopefully than
American thinkers are inclined to
do at present.
The last problem is the one
that presses lor attention first. It
has risen to national importance
within the past year. It is the
natural desire of any nation to
form a homogeneous people to
include all of a race and to expel
all outside of it. It is this ten
dency that created the German
empire. It made Victor Emman
uel king of United Italy. It
makes Pan-Slavism the ruling and
popular policy of Russia.
The question first appeared
in America in reference to the Chi
nese. It has come up in regard
to other peoples. The assimilat
ing power of America seemed un
til recently to be equal to any
strain, but the promiscuous im
migration of the last ten or fif
teen years has overtaxed that
power, for the moment at least.
The Times bel'eves that Amer
ica will be able to deal with the
political problems that come from
the existing conditions. It will
undoubtedly be done, but t!u
means are not clear. Mr. Pow
derly proposes to relieve the laLor
situation by shutting out the labor
from Europe that is driving Amer
ican workmen out of so many
trades. Many thoughtful Ameri
cans indorse his views. If this
course is taken, the problem would
settle itself. Probably the labor
problem, with the most serious
competition withdrawn, would
take the tame course.
The problems are not new to
the world, but thev have never
been presented under the same
conditions. Tho wisdom of the
nation, however much we may
distrust that of individuals, will
be found sufficient to solve them.
Bat the solution is not in sight
just now.
A New Occupation.
One of the newest occupations
upon which women can enter is
that of a "complexionist." Such
a person makes a study of the
skin, and for a stipend endeavors
to improve customers' complex
ions. Here is a prescription that
one them gave to a client, prom
ising that it would clear the s tin
m a short time: A tablespoonful
of sulphur taken every morning
for a week, then omitted for three
mornings and taken again. A
mixture of powdered brimstone or
diluted glycerine should be rubbed
on the face at night and washed
off in the morning with soap and
water in which there is a little
ammonia. JV- Y. Jfaii (aid

"We learn from an observer that
a bull was wading along the edge
of the Flint river swamp last
Monday, nipping cane and keep,
ing cool, when a huge alligator
made a dash at his nose, but
missed a hold. The bull made
fight, and prodded the alligator
with his horns. Then commenced
a fierce and bloody encounter, in
the shallow water that beggars de
scription. The 'gator struck with
his tail and snapped furiously with
his huge jaws, tearing the skin
and flesh in big strips from the
bull. The bull got his horns in
to the 'gator's sides, and, lifting
his huge carcass, tossed him high
and dry on the ground, and, fol
lowing up with a deep bellow,
rushed again upon its foe. The
alligator met him Avith a terrible
blow of the tail, knocking off one
horn and bringing the bull to his
knees. The other horn got in un
der a fore leg of the 'gator, and
the 'gator getting a front foot of
the bull in its mouth, they became
locked, and rolled and tumbled
fearfully. They got into the wa
ter again, where, after a fierce
struggle, both expited. The en
trails of the 'gator were protrud pretrud
ing: in several places, while the
bull was nearly stripped of hide
and flesh. JSumter, Ga., Republican.

A gawky, piney woods Texan
walked into the palatial home of
senator Reagan this morning just
as the senator and his family were
seating themselves at breakfast.
"Won't you sit down and have
some breakfast with us?" asked
the senator, who saw a probable
legislator sixj'cars hence.
"No, I'm bleeged to yer, gin
'rel," said the Texan, with a broad
grin. "Yer see, dad died last
night, un' we'uns hev all been
eatin' an? gwine on all -night. 1

The London Telegraph has a
daily circulation of 280,000, and
its yearly profits are estimated at
1,500,000. This paper is said by
all financial authorities to have a
reserve, of 6,000,000 invested,
producing an income which can
be used at any time for an extra
expenditure.

A Remedy for Kidney Complaint.
'My kidneys were so affected I have
been compelled to get up as much as
ten times in one night. I had pains in

when down could hardly rise. I was

pain. I tried Simmons Liver Regulator
and my condition has improved so
much that I hardly ever feel any of my
old trouble." V. Jonxsox, Express
