In order to facilitate the matter as
much as possible, the Visitor, under
the head of "Boarders Wanted," pro
pones to insert cards of such persons
as can accommodate boarders, at 25
cents for not exceeding 3 lines during
a period of one month. All that is
necessary to be stated in the cards is
the names of the parties, number and
street and whether table board or
lodging or both can be had.
It will be readily perceived that
this propsition is almost gratuitous,
being only about sufficient to cover
the expenses of composition and the
worth of the space. We hope all who
contemplate taking boarders will
send in their notices at once.
With each succeeding day the situ
ation in China becomes graver, and
nothing seems left for the powers to
do except to make a combined do
monstration of forces. If, as is
thought, the disaffected element be
only waiting for this event as an ex
cuse for raising the standard of revolt
against the existing dynasty, the
horrors of the Taeping rebellion are
like!y to be repeated.
The government agent in charge of
the official rain making experiments
at El Paso, Texas, who was abducted
by his balloon on Thursday afternoon
-while making an ascension in search
of humidity, was fortunate enough
to escape from the sky and get back
t earth in safety ; and the expert
ments were resumed in the presence
of a multitude of people. The spec
tacular quality of these tests, with
their bombs bursting in air and their
array of scientific paraphernalia, suf
iiciently explains the popular inter
est which they have excited.
All the signs says the Philadelphia
Record point to the rapid breaking
up of the Farmers' Alliance The
farmers have real grievances, but
nothing quite so serious as the pro
posed measures of relief advocated
by the cranks who are fastened upon
the Alliance like burrs. The good
crops and fair prices, as well as the
manifest follies of the leaders, have
had much to do in restoring good hu
mor among country people, and mak
ing them
rather bear those ills they have
Than fly to others that they know not
of.
A report comes from Russia that
the czar will read George Kennan's
accounts of the horrors of Siberian
imprisonment. It is to be hoped that
the report is true, for if there is the
slightest feeling of humanity left in
his breast, the ruler of Russia will
surely take some steps to reform the
present system when he becomes
thoroughly acquainted with it, as he
must be after he finishes Lennan's
account.
The roasting weather in the T orth
west, of which we bad a foretaste in
this section yesterday is the hottest
18th of September known for twenty
years, will be the making of the corn
however hard it raty be for the time
on the human beings who are raisers
of the staple. They wiil endure the
freak of truly solstitial weather with
all the more patience as they reflect
on the special efforts which Secretary
Husk is making to find a market for
their cereal among the nations that
we have sought to shut oat of our
own market by an insurmountable
birrler. Phil. Record.

An Exception.
The Goldsboro Argus says :
" Uoldsboro has a model negro far
mer in the person of Prof. E. E.
Smith. exU. 8. Minister to Liberia.
We have before made note of his ex- j
cellent farm, a few miles east of the
city. Yesterday he had upon this (
market three bales of new crop cot- i
ton, as the first fruits of his industry
as a farmer."
This is an exceptional case. As a
rule, any considerable time in public
office unfits most men for success in
private business life, and more espe
cially is this the case among negroes
who have filled offices. There are
not the advantages in public offices
that the avidity with which they are
sought, would indicate. There is
too much office seeking and too little
intelligent energy invested in private
business, in this country, especially
in farming.
Broke HI Skull With a Broom
William McGee, a night watchman
at the stables of the Green street and
Fairmount avenue extension of the
People's Passenger Railway Company
at 25th street and Fairmount avenue,
became involved in a fight last night
with John Schwank a brewer, who
resides at No- 930Bambrey street.
Schwank wandered into the station
where McGee is a watchman, in a
very much inebriated condition, and
started to take possession of the prem
ises. The watchman endeavored to
remonstrate with him, but to no pur
pose, and soon a wrangle ensued. In
the fight McGee, the watehman,
picked np a stable broom and struck
Schwank on the head, felling him to
the floor.
Officer Capper, of the ninth district,
was attracted to the scene and imme
diately took charge of McGee and con
ducted him to the station house.
Schwank was taken to the German
Hospital, where he was found to have
sustained a depressed fracture of the
skull. As Schwank's case is con6ld
ered to be precarious, McGee will be
held to await the result of his injuries.

Rainmaker Ellis Lost in the
Mountains.
Ex,. Paso, Tex., Sept. 19.-This af
ternoon John T. Ellis, of the rain
making expedition, went up in a bal
loon two miles to measure the hut
midity of the atmosphere. When
the balloon was up one mile a num
ber of explosions were set off on the
ground. The balloon fell in the
mountains, thirteen miles from the
city, and neither the baloon nor oc-
cupant has been heard from. Since
the heavy explosions this afternoon
heavy, dark clouds have gathered
above Mount Franklin, from which
point the bombardment took place.
Gold and Silver.
An almost inexhaustible supply of
both gold and silver exists in the ter
ritory of the Chickastfw Nation. The
Legislature of the territory has lately
authorized the formation of compa
nies for the purpose of working mines
and several have been organized. At
one mine the silver assayed 5,170 to
the ton. Under the law no one ex
cept citizens of the Nation can work
the mines, aud by this method the
Legislature hopes to keep the wealth
at home. Ex.

8outh Norwalk, Conn , Sept. 19
Henry Ketcham, a wealthy and
good-looking young man, answered
the matrimonial advertisement of
Mrs. Julian K. Stillwell, of Wilton,
Conn., who is a widow. As a result
he was granted a meeting at the rail
road station in Norwalk. He went
there, aud, not finding the lady, went
to her house in Wilton.
There he was met by the lady's
stalwart brother, who, not under
standing the circumstances, pro
ceeded io thrash Kercham. The lady
savs she was only in fun. Ketcham
will resort to the courts.
The new summer cars are crowded

The Book. Trust Knocked Out.
A Caed to the public.
The price of the great Encyclopedia Brii
annica, $8 per volume for the English edi
tion, and $5 per volume for the Seribnur anc
the Stoddardt editions in the cheapest binn
inghas been a bar to its popular use.
Our new reprint of this work is furnished
at 11.50 per volume, the greatest bargain evei
known in the book trade. We have sold ovei
half a million volumes in six months; pnyl
that the public appreciate so great a bargain.
This reprint is not an abridgment, but a rt
production of the entire tweniy-tive volume
of the great Edinburg ninth edition, pngc loi
page, with new and later articles on iiii son
ant American topics, and new maps', lati-.t
and better than in any other edition, 'hi all
repects it compares favorably with the high
priced editions, and in point of maps and du
rability of binding it is superior to them.
Heretofore we have sold only for cash- We
now announce that we will deliver the set
complete on small easy payments,
Special Offee. In order tha you may
see the bargain we offer, and examine its
merits, we will furnish Volume 1 by express
for 60 cts. a fraction of actual cost; add J.cts
postage ii wanted by mail.
