He asks if the practice of cannibalism is Still going on in the wild islands of the sea, and what about the Vegetarians of China? Cannibalism is still kept up by the Old F. P. V. 's of the south sea islands, but the younger set prefer soft shell 'crabs. A man who was sent as a mis sionary to the, south sea island called Broongling Kzztt-jjji-zztt only a year go last April, and who was in my class at Yale, but who was outclassed after ward, wrote borne that he one day last autumn went on a picnic with a young Bible class of his, and after the lunch of spoopju and lecture dates he strolled away down the valley with a chief named Chli, who iS as free from guile r clothes as nations yet unborn. Finally they came t a great pile of human bones, and near it was a big sort of monument, with a strange inscription on it. l "Ah!" said the missionary. "This was Once a great cemetery where thousands were left silent in death, with only this tall stone to mark its site and the vast ocean of whitening bones. What is the meaning of the inscription, Uhli?" l- "The white man with the weak biain, who buys books instead of whisky, is in error, said Uhli. "It is not a cemetery. Tfc a - T-r1 Anil u nnfpavr 1$ Thus we see that along the borders of the enlightened twentieth century, and .where the fin de bicycle has not as yet Came, they still take a cold haunch of missionary before retiring. A little boy friend of mine once on a wager made the following rhyme upon the ward Timbuctoo : p There ere heathen In every clime J Wh eat their brethren one at a time, r ' And even here In Timbuctoo f They ate a preacher and hishymnbook too. One good thing about the Vegetarians of China is that their religious tenets forbid the use of missionaries for 24 days out of each month. Some of the .

Others are so strict that they will not eat ' horse radish, but this is ridiculous. x think there is a good deal of big otry in all religions except my own. Once I knew a Chinese Vegetarian in llarysville, CaL, who would not eat eggplant. In America we belong to a church, a lodge and a political organization, and as each has a different evening for its meeting we have quite a repertory of things to tell our wives when we get home, but the Chinaman has no genius ia this way, doubtless because he does hot consider his wife worthy of a fairy tale, for he combines bis religion, secret society and Tammany Hall in one big organization, which requires him to as sassinate those who disagree with him and not eat gooseberries or other an imal food. Once there was a sect among the Vegetarians of China who would not eat marrowfat peas. -Z Who would think that religious fervor would carry one so far? Who would be so hidebound? Those who would not favor being thus hidebound will please raise the hand ! k k fe I Thanks; that will do. I The meanest thing I ever heard of was done by a young man with a good education. " V I will tell you about it. Hia name was Howard P. Xhxnean, and ; I knew - him very well. We were educated together and graduated oa the Eame shingle, I was about to say. But he had more ingenuity than L He could make the tutor believe that the moon was made of green" cheese, whereas I could not even make the same faculty believe what it already knew. If I said that the earth was round like a ball and slightly depressed at the poles, fox the first time there would be a . feeling of doubt in the minds of my instructor;! Bat Iloward, after delivering the valedictory, went forth into the .world. f, r himself. He felt a certain repug- 2 Jpdustry jjhich showed, that r nTsblooH haa a tgns &riomcraiic linga. He tried two or three easy professions. but finally turned his back toward them all. He was offered a situation at f 40 per month to teach, but turned bitterly on hia heel and said with some asperity that "he would rather pump thunder in hell at 5 cents clap. Those were his very words. , ' ' ' That remark was tb index to the man's whole character. He would say things at all times that other people aft erward bitterly regretted. , Finally he developed anew disease, and ; his autopsy was extremely promis ing, v Forv this reason he was greatly sought after by the medical colleges. He was offered, over $100 : for: his remains. But he hung out. His boyhood home had offered him $300 to go away and remain, to whiah his father had offered to add $300. He asked my advice, and 1 told him to hang out for $1,000, for I felt sure it would be given. This proved to be true. I helped to make up the amount. Finally he got five of the ablest med leal colleges above $100 and sold his carcass to each of them. Then, stricken by remorse, be came to the mercy seat, thinking that it would be Just the thing for a sedentary man, embraced Christianity and three or fotuvl of the most desirable workers in the Ladies auxiliary, became a missionary, went to the tropics, and a week after he landed the chief had him up at his house for dinner. I repeat this just to show how mean a man can be to a medical college that never by word or deed has harmed him in the least. Did you ever notice how few valedictorians get to be president? They all at once in life's early morn seem to find themselves great, and the next morning they awake to find they have slept it off. Boys, ro ni ember this and be comfort ed when VAQ are not chosen valedicto rian. Be brave, industrious, honest and temperate. Temperance is said to be one of the best things we have. A bushel of corn makes a gallon of whisky, worth on the market $16. On this the government gets $2.60 (or more now). The farmer gets 40 cents. (This is too much. ) The railroad gets $1. The manufacturer gets $3. The vender gets $9. And the consumer gets the rest, which consists mostly of red and blue cogwheels in his head and a rich flow of animal and vegetable spir its. The gentleman crospondent at 'New buryport will do well to treasure up the above figures and cling more closely to the dear eld pump or the old oaken bucket, the Hoboken bucket that hung in the well. Several correspondents write to ask in a most courteous manner to know why I have said nothing about the bicy cle and the new woman. This is easily explained. Others are saying and doing enough in this line, so that my silence could not be noticed. I am the friend'of both the bicycle and the new woman, and yet both have their enemies. I cut the following ad. from The Rocky Moun tain News of Denver : "Wanted. To trade a cure for rup ture for ladies' bicycle; 91 Opera House block." Possibly, however, this is only figur ative and refers to a disagreement be tween husband and wife, which the peacemaker wishes to cure by getting FISHING FOR TAUTOG. the wife's bike, which is really the cause of the trouble. However, we will not insist on that explanation. Had the swap been ottered in a reverse order it would have been easier to understand. I was talking with the president about this question a few weeks ago as we fished together for tautog and caught sea robin redbreasts and a Jarge in cipient fish of which I do not know the name. Casually one of our party said, "Mr. President, I presume you have noticed that Mr. Dana of The Sun does not seem enthusiastic over the new woman?" "No, I had not noticed it," said the president, putting another white bait on his hook, "but I am not surprised. It is perfectly natural that the old woman should be a little jealous of the new f J6.

Say Abovfe Taehts Did the Kzenrsion Boats Interfere With the Baeet? ' Correspondence of the Observer. New York, Sept 13. The World newspaper still sticks to its ridiculous assumption that President Cleveland's arrangement with ' the bond syndicate was & bad bargain, and It is nn-l)emo- cratically joining with the Republicans in their effort to get up a scare over the condition of the Treasury. This is : be cause the. World does not like Mr. Cleve land, which is quite natural, since Mr. Cleveland's standard of morality Is very much hieher than the World's. To discredit our srreat Democratic President has long been the aim of this so-called Democratic ne wssaner. It isn't a high aim. ? The Kepublicans are. or coarse, very glad of its aid ini making the people distrustful of the administration's financial policy and so putting them in the humor to turn the government over to tbe Kepublieana. Bo they are snak ing tbeir heads ominously and asking in awful whispers. "What shall we do after October 1st? How are we to main tain our gold reserve when the contract with the syndicate expires? will we not be faced with bankruptcy t etc., etc. Bat somehow, in spite ol the Kepub licans and the Democratic enemies of the President, tbe business world here is remarkably tranquil. There is no fear that the country is going to ruin financially; there is none that the credit of the government will be impaired either this year or nt year. Why? For tbe simple reason that Urover Cleveland is President. "Are we to have a bond issue? Is the country to be mortgaged again?" shriek the enemies of the ad ministration. Pernaps we will; cer tainly we wilL if a bond issue is neces sary in order to maintain the govern ment credit. This the business men know and this makes them feel safe. They don't trust much in the next Con gress, for there is even less sense and more "politics usually in a Republi can than in a Democratic uongress. Perhaps the next Congress will place our currency on a sound basis somehow or other; but the probability is that it will do nothing of the sort; the proba bility is that it will take up the tariff question just for the sake of politics and pretend that it does so to increase the revenues and so save the Treasury from bankruptcy. That is the .little game which New York's business are looking for. But it will not disturb them, for Grover Cleveland is President. They know that the tariff is not going to be changed to any extent worth men tioning while he is President, and they krtpw that he is going to maintain the credit of the government, no matter what antics Reed's House of Repre sentatives cuts; no matter what the politicians do or say; no matter what anybody does or says. Therefore is the business world of rsew lork tranquil, aud therefore business men are looking with confidence to the future. HTLL AGAINST KOOSEVELT. There is rather a pretty fight on be tween David B. Hill and Theodore Roosevelt. David does not smoke, gamble or cuss, but he has always had weakness for men who do, and they have always had a weakness for him. Consequently he is backed up in his fight with "ready" c-y a large public sentiment. Of course David s idea is to control the next Legislature so that he can feel sure of keeping his seat in the United States Senate, while 'Teddy's" idea is to show the people of the world that he ("Teddy") is a man of his word, and that when be says he will close the saloons on tsun dav he means it; and, more too, he will stop the Sunday sale of soda water, for be is the Iron Police Commissioner, and New lork shall drink water only on the Sbbath Dav while he rules. That's "Teddy." fow, perhaps the people of this town ought to be with 'Teddy, but they are not. They know what David B. is after, and many of them don't want him to get t; they d rather see some other Demo crat get his place, isut there he is, champion of the beer keg, and fight- ng "Teddy, and they love him. II 'Teddy" just goes on and shuts up all the soda water fountains and the clubs and the caddy stores and the cigar shops and the ice cream parlors, and makes New York as unattractive as an old bleached bone, enough of these people will stand by the liquor dealers, who have always been David's friends, to make his chances of returning to the Senate again alter his present term expires a dead certainty. NO THING BUT YACHTS, YACHTS. If the Rev. "Tommy" Dixon talks bout yachting in his sermon next Sunday he will probably say-that for the past week the people of New York have been thinking yachts, talking yachts, eating yachts, sleeping yachts, drinking yachts: for that is the way the Rev. "Tommy talks. Thus he would indicate that the New Yorkers have been highly interested in the lnterna- tonal yacht races. And so they have there-is no doubt of that. To see the yachts race thousands of them have gone down to the sea in ships and de livered up to Neptune things they ate n childhood and since. Merely to hear of the races they have stood for hours in stiffing crowds before news paper offices craning their moist necks to catch a glimpse of each new bulletin. Moreover, they have read about yachts until their minds are a chaosof "booms" nd "backstays" and balloon jibs" and 'legs." Numbers of them, though never on a yacht in tbeir lives, I eel quite competent now to take entire charge of the Defender or the Valkyrie and sail her to China. DUNRAVKN DlttN'T HAVE A FAIR SHOW. At this writing there is creneral dissat isfaction with the situation. Nobody is happy except the owners of the ex cursion boats, wno nave made a great deal of money in the three race days. And that fact makes tbe general dissat isfaction still greater, because, but for the excursion boats, there would have been three fair and square races and the noble Earl of Dunraven would not now be on the point of returning to his ancestral halls muttering hoarsely (as Laura Jean Libbey would say)that there is no such thing as fair play among Americans. He says that in the first race, when he was beaten eight minutes, tbe excursion steamers were so much in his way that he could not see the mark-boat and so did not know when he was on the starting line.and that in the second race it was an excursion steamer in the way that caused him to foul the Defender and that all through that race, in which he beat the Defend er 47 seconds, the excursion steamers crowded him and took the wind out of his sails. When the third race day came he looked at the fleet of excur sion steamers, sighed, crossed the start ing line and then left the Defender to sail over the course alone, thus allow ing that yacht to "win" three races, the second having been awarded her by the judges on account of the foul. Of course the general opinion is that the Defender can beat the Valkyrie in a fair race ia any sort of weather, though it is acknowledged , that the English yacht Is a floe sailer and that the race would be close in light winds. - - " - fjords Dun raven's declaration that there will be no more international yacht races in these waters carries dis may, naturally., to , the owners of ex cursion steamers, for It means the loss of many bard dollars to them; and they have always gotten more real Joy out of the yacht races than anybody else, ex cept maybe the newspaper, people. ; : .. .Bat did the excursion boats really in terfere and was Dunraven right in re fusing to race yesterday? Well, those are questional whieh;- in view of the present high temperature, I am onlv too willing to leave to the big editors of New York and s Ijondon. However, from what I have seen of excursion boats in these waters and of dislike of the English in this part of our land, it is my humble opinion that the noble earl . probably didn't have a fair show. - - . . - Bbowkchtk. MANCBXSTXB BUIXS. A Visitor Ilnds tlwsi ia Good Condi tion, Bat a Strike Peadlas; All Opera- - ters breach Machinery Xxhlblt a At - lanta. Correspondence of the Observer " Fall RrrEB, Mass., Sept. 7. There is ?reat activity in mill building in this anions cotton milling city, where there are already oO or 90 mills all la opera tion. One mill is making an addition, which they claim will give it the largest number of spindles under one roof out side . of Manchester, England- Their smoke chimney, Is 325 feet highv Makers of textile machinery here have orders for months ahead c-r local work. A great deal of old English machinery is in use here, but much of it, as well as older American machinery is being thrown out and replaced with later designs, such as revolving fiat cards and metallic roll drawing frames. The weavers, though now working at an advanced scale, one that was agreed to in the spring, have a demand for an other increase, based on the advance in cotton goods, and the fact that in most -cases the mills have carried over a good stock oi cotton purchased at low prices unless there is an agreement by the 22nd. a general strike is threatened; but it is thought there will be an amica ble adjustment. There are; about 30,- 000 operatives at work in theity. Most or tne mins are very oonging about showing visitors around, but just now they carefully survey each new comer for signs of the possible "walk ing delegate." About half the mill operatives are French Canadians, many of whom speak no English. All notices posted in tbe mfHa are in both English, and French. Although FalrKWer has a splendid water power, most of the old mills and all of the new ones use steam power. Coal costs 83.50 to $4.00. The clambering ivy over the stone mills, and the prettily kept lawn around some or the offices and mills make a picturesque landscape effect. The Inter-urban electrio railway is making great progress hereabouts. The electric ride, 14 miles to New Bedford is particularly pleasant at this season. Somerset, Taunton, and other neigh boring cities will soon be connected with the system. A Taunton manufacturer will have at the Atlanta Exposition one of the largest machinery exhibits there. It will comprise a full line of cotton mill machinery in operation. The now famous Borden house, where the Fall River murders were committed, two years ago, has become such an ob ject of curiosity to visitors, that the owners have been obliged to keep up the "no tresspassing" sign and enforce it. WEAK-BACKED POLITICIANS. Bat an Evidence That the People of the State Are Strong We Have Few Leaders. Correspondence of the Observer. Washington, Sept. 14. You have got the weakest backed-set of politicians in your State in this Union, and that is saying a great deal. I have known a good many of them a good many years, and have not known a real stiff-backed man in the whole lot. They yield to every pressure. They are afraid to say anything, afraid to do anything. They are not leaders, but followers. The speaker was an intelligent South erner, well-known around here as a free lance. I told him, for he was addressing me, that if the public men of North Carolina lacked -back-bone, it was per haps because the people there possessed so much. This seemed to strike him, and he added: "That is true. Your people have real spunk and no mistake, as shown all along in your history from early Colonial times to the present. But think they ought to impart some of it to their public men. These are in no sense leaders, but are always followers of the people." I send this to the Observes with the more pleasure, as it is an unconscious echo of the Observer's own cry, raised sometime since, for a man to lead the Democrat party of the State.
