——Lot Callahan, son of Wharton
Callahan, says the Philipsburg Ledger,
got a very bad hurt the other day while
holding Mr. W. H. Wigton’shorse. The
horse became enraged from some cause,
and breaking loose from the boy, dashed
at him and seized him by the chin, biting
him very severely. The wound bled
profusely and looked ugly, but is only a
flesh wound and is healing up all right.
The horse is one of a handsome pair of
bays, but has a cross disposition, no
doubt caused by teasing.

There is not the slightest improvement this
week iu the coal trade, and at a number of col-
lieries the miner considers himself exceeding
fortunate if he can secure three or four days
work out of a week. The operators, as usual,
attribute the dullness to the scarcity of cars,
but the man who digs the coal says that ex-
cuse has become an old chestnut, and it is
not for want of ears that the coal business is
slack. In conversation with several miners
the other day they told us that itis not the
Scarcity of ears that canses the small output of
coal in this region, but the scarcity of orders.
Sometimes we are half inclined to believe that
this is really the trouble, while at other times
we are led to} believe tthe reverse. Whatever
the cause may be, we sincerely trast that the
difficulty will soon be remedied and that the
winter's trade will be a brisk one. If the min-
ers are to continue working from three to four
days out of each week, we can’t see what they
will do when cold weather sets in. Those with
large families cannot support them upon the
wages they receive at present.

——General John Bankhead Magruder
was an officer in the army and was par-
ticularly proud of his horsemanship.
During the Mexican War he rode a
splendid charger, Black Prince. Mag-
ruder, who was then a captain, could
perform all sorts of feats on horseback,
and took pleasure in showing off his
skill. Oneday he was witching the ar-
my with his horsemanship when a Tex-
an came along and declared that he
could beat Magruder riding on his own
horse. Naturally disgusted at this piece
of presumption he called his brother
officers and said he was going to have a
trial of horsemanship with the Texan,
and should the latter be defeated it
would be only right and proper that he
should be whipped out of camp. They
all agreed, and the riding commenced.
Magruder excelled all his former feats
on horseback, and was rewarded with
loud cheers. The Texan then mounted
Black Prince and rode around and
around in the most reckless manner,
when, suddenly, when he got to the
farthest side of the camp, he darted off,
and Magruder never saw horse or rider
again. When the laugh which greeted
this feat was over Magruder said it serv-
ed him right for trusting an unknown
man to ride his best horse.
Colored Democrats.
Meeting of the Executive Committee in
Harrisburg—Demand for Greater
Recognition in Offices— Tariff
Reform Indorsed.
HARRISBURG, September 13.—The
Democratic Executive Committee of the
Colored State Leaguemet in this city to-
day and elected R. G. Still, of Philadel-
hia, President; Walter S. Brown, of
ittsburg, Treasurer, and William Still,
of Reading, Secretary. The committee
‘| prepared an address for the “considera-
tion of thinking colored men of Pennsyl-
vania.”” The address ses forth that the
negroes have been faithful to the Re-
publican party since they weregiven the
right of franchise, almost to a man, and
have never been accorded the recogni-
tion due them as faithful and loyal par-
tisans. They had been hoodwinked, and
cajoled, and filled with promises, and
had seen others reap the reward of their
labors when the campaign wasover. A
look into Pennsylvania's legislative
halls would never indicate that Pennsyl-
vania contained over 100,000 negroes
whose loyalty to the party was undenia-
ble. The address then asserts that the
intelligence of the negroes 1s begining to
assert itself, and that many have renoun- !
ced the Republican party, which has
quadrennially posed as the negro’s friend.
The complaint is made that the doors of
workshops are owned and controlled
chiefly by Republicans, and have been
tightly barred against the colored people;
and thrown open to a class of foreign-
ers who don’t become citizens.
The sixth plank of the Democratic
platform, which holds the Republican
party responsible for the failure to pass
any law for the relief of manual labor is
warmly indorsed. The position of the
Democratic party on the tariff question
is also approved. “We are the consu-
mers, hence pay the tariff,” says the ad-
dress, “and yet are debarred from the
average ficld of labor, and we consider it
an insult to our citizenship for any par-
ty to ask us to support a measure favor-
able to a class who ignore and deny us
our God-given right and privilege to
carn cur bread by the sweat of our brow.”
The Southern negroes are admonished
to ally themselves with the Democratic |
party as the protection guaranteed by
the Constitution. It is claimed that un-
der President Cleveland the condition of
the negroes in the South was better than
it is to-day. These people are asked to
‘cease to be dead martyrs and become
living exponents of a truly new South.”
The address closes thus: “Do not
vote from mere sentiment, sometimes
termed gratitude, but cast your ballot
with a view to the best interest of your
race.’
The colored league met in the rooms |
of the Democratic State Committee.
s————————————
Harrisonism a Dreary Failure,
New York Star.
The first test of the popularity of the
new administration has been made at the
congressional election in the Third Louis-
lana district. That constituency was
Democratic in 1884 by 699 ; in 1886, by
2,090, ard in 1888, by 6,331. The Ad-
ministration leaders declared that al-
though 25,000 votes were cast last fall,
Gray's election was practically without
opposition, and that with the influence
of a new control at Washington the col-
ored voters would rise and elect Minor,
a model candidate of the ideal Republi-
canized new south.
Warmoth was appointed Collector of
the Port of New Orleans to help the con- |
test, and the flower of Republican con-
gressional chivalry went to the Louisiana |
lowlands to assist Minor ard enjoy his '
triumph.
An anchor was, it is trae, cast to wind-
ward in shape of preparations to contest
a close result and to seat Minor even if,

by a majority larger by some two thou-

a legion of Eliza Pinkstons could not
evike from the hard fucts and solid fig- |
ures of the Democratic triumph the faint- |
est hope to base a Republican contest on.

men from Southern States are bent on
making their sectional influence a con-
trolling factor in the contest for the |
Speakership, and the Administration can |
only save itself by meekly eating the bit-
ter leek of their domination. In Ohio,
party suceess is imperiled by dissensions
inflamed by presidential blunders. In
New York, all prospect of Republican
vietorv for State officers has vanished
New Jersey is certain to prove itself more
Deniocratic than ever and in the New
States confidently relied on to solidify
Republican control, Democratic pros-
pects are improving every hour.
The universal current adverse to Harris-
onism is impelled by the conyiction that at
Washington factionalism dominates over
law, ard that maladministration of power
dishorestly acquired is the method of the
Executive branch of the Federal Govern-
ment. All indications point to the con-
clusion that the crushing defeat in Louis-
iana is only the forerunner of a sweeping
verdict against Harrisonism in the No-
vember elections.

State College Agricultural Experiment
Station of Pennsylvania.
The Pennsylvania State College Ag-
ricultural Experiment station has just
issued Bulletin No. 8, which, in addition
to interesting statistical information as
to the per centage of germinative power
of seeds tested, gives the following from
George C. Butz, the Society’s horticul-
turist, which tends to show the special
object the Society has in this depart
ment: One of the ways in which hor-
ticulturists of this country can be served
by the various experiment stations is in
testing the new varieties of fruits and
vegetables on the station grounds, where
a comparative test with many standard
sorts can be made. It is true that all
originators want to have a complete con-
trol of their novelties and this fact is ap-
preciated by those in charge of the work
at the stations. The purpose of the
stations is not to disseminate plants of
new sorts, but only to test and report
upon the qualities of the novelties for
the benefit of those persons who are to be
the purchasers of such novelties when
they are placed upon the market by the
originators. This Station does not pay
for the seeds, scions or plants sent on
trial, neither does it make any charge
The Republican Congress- |
for testing any novelty. However in
order that a fixed relation between this
institution and its patrons may be es-
tablished we agree upon definite rules to
govern this class of work.
Novelties will be planted in the neigh-
torhood of the standard sorts already
growing on the Station grounds. Accur-
ate notes will be kept on all points that
have more or less interest to the grower,
such as the time of maturity, amount of
yield, size, color, flavor, etc.; the vigor
and hardiness of the plant or tree, the
attack of insects or disease, ete. Such
information will be published in the bul-
letins and reports of the Station from
time to time for the use of the public.
This information received by the origi-
nator will indicate to him not only the
merits of his own novelty, but of all
varieties tested under the conditions of
our trial grounds.
‘We desire to have sent to us such va-
rieties as ave.deemed by their proprietors
to be worthy of introduction, or such as
have not been fully tested. A blank will
be sent to each patron, that he may £11
Lit in with a brief history of the variety,
| whether it be the result” of careful cross
ing or hybridizing, or whether it be a
mere ‘‘sport’”’ or chance sce lling.
Of the larger fruits not less than three
trees should be sent, but of the apple,
scions will be acceptable; of the straw-
berry the smallest number of plants is
twenty-four and of the other small fruits
six. Of vegeables and other plants
grown from'seed not less than one hun-
dred seeds should be sent.
We will propagate only as far as is
necessary for experimentation, and a full
report will not be made until a sufficient
number of plants has been acquired to
make a satisfactory test.
All the above conditions were agreed
upon by the horticulturists of the exper-
| iment stations in convention at Colum-
| bus, Ohio, June 13 and 14, 1889.
| Germination tests have been made this
| year with seeds from the same packages
, as those used last year in order to find
i to what extent they have deteriorated by
being held over one year. There is too
| great a decreasein the percentage of good
seed in the cases of lettuce and tomatoes,
for these seeds, if pure, shoul { have the
same germinative power for about five
| years ut least. One hundrcd seads of each
| variety were used in nearly all cases and
the same germinator employed through-
out.
Similar experim-nts bearing on the
question of the germinative power ofseeds
was completed with corn, in which it
was observed that the per cent. of tha
i seeds vegetated in a field experiment are
generaiy smaller than those germinated in
the germinators of the laboratory, which
{ is due to the fact that some seeds will
| germinate but have not strength enough
to vegetate. The general agreement of
the result throughout shows to some ex-
tent the reliability of the germination
records.
The money value of the corn and
wheat crops of this state is as follows:
Corn (grain only,) $20,000,000 ; wheat,
(grain omly,) $17,500,000; total corn
i erop, (corn and stover,) $35,000,000.

| Effects of the Mt. Gretna Encampment
=Col Carpenter's Report in Regard
to Same.
WasuiNGron, Sept. 11.—Colonel Car-
penter, who commanded the Regulars
| who were in summer camp and united in
| military evolutions with the National
" Guard of Pennsylvania at Mount Gret-
{ na, near Lebanon, has- completed his
| general report to the commanding officer
of the Military Department. In that
| interesting document he recommends
{ that the Government accept the offer of
| Robert Coleman to make arrangements
| at Mount Gretna for a summer camp
and artillery target practice. The artil-
|
|
lery range of 4,000 yards proposed by
Mr. Coleman, Colonel Carpenter says,
would be the finest in the Eastern Divi-
son and for accessibility, topographic
advantages and healthiness of air, water
and surroundings, would have no su-
: perior anywhere in the country. The
i Mount Gretna camp greund already has
a range of 2,000 yards, which is equal to
anything the Government can command
at present. The 4,000 yard range will
therefore afford exceptional facilities for,
target practice with improved field guns
Colonel Carpenter says that the

drill, it being sufficiently uneven to test
the tactical efficiency and horesmanship
of the battery riders and troopers of the
squadron. He will therefore urge the
acceptance of the offer, so that the im-
provements may be completed in time
for the next season of military camps.
Colonel Carpenter also says that the
Pennsylvania National Guard, represent-
ing the three arms of the service, judged
by the practical experience of joint man-
euvers in the field, presents the highest
type of the American citizen soldiery
and with all the characteristics of regu-
lars. He says as a rule the citizen sol-
diers have an amateurish indecision in
this distinction is so slight in the case of
the Pennsylvania National Guard that it
would hardly be noticeable even to the
' praticed eye of a professional soldier.
ground is also admirably diversified to- |
their movements, which wears off with
professional training and service, but!
The Color of Horses.
There is more in color or likeness in
breeding all animals than most people
imagine, says an exchange. In large
herds of animals in their wild state col-
ors vary little. There is often, so trav-
elers have said, an odd colored stallion
or two in wild herds of horses, and it is
not uncommon to find an odd-colored
stallion apparently the master of the
troop. It is quite certain that this stal-
lion does not get his own color as the
herd remains in its own originality.
It has been said that the original color
of horses is chestnut, and there is evi-
dence toshow]that in sll of the eastern—
or of what is supposed to be the original
blood—the color that lasted the longest
is chestnut and that which has lasted
least is gray. The earliest mumbers of
the ‘English Stud Book” gives more
grays than almost any other color, but
they have become scarcer and scarcer
until now among stallions there is
Jogeeely a gray horse in service in Eng-
land.
For a long time prejudice attached to
a white horse on account of the fabulous
tradition that they could not stand the
cold, because white was a non-conductor
of heat, a hypothesis at once controvert-
ed by the tact that the polar bear, which
exists alone in the region of eternal
cold, and is happy no where else, is
white. The same prejudice existed at
one time against black horses, on the
other extreme—as black was a conductor
of heat a black horse would succumb to
the enervating heat of summer.
In-thisage of the world it is needless
to say that the color of a horse has noth-
ing to do with his constitution. Fran-
ces’s Alexander, a coal black stallion,
trotted one of the most exhausting and
prolonged races against a field of six
others on one of the hottest days in mid-
summer, and won it. Jay-Eye-See is a
black, and there is no horse on the
American turf superior to him in cour-
age and endurance. Hopeful is a gray.
During his turf career he was the fore-
most horse on the trotting turf. He
pulled a wagon, and placed to his credit
a record for that way of going which has
never been equalled. Charlie Ford 1s
another gray horse that was first in thir-
ty-eight races and seventy-seven heats
below 2.30. These two examples explode
the theory that horses of light color are
usually of a weak constitution.
Hermit, the great English thorough-
bred sire, is a chestnut, while his sire
was a bay of a particularly marked bay
family. Out of a score of sons and
daughters of Hermit which have made
their mark the majarity are chestnuts.
This same peculiarity marks the produce
of Hambletonian Prince. Those of his
get thathave made their mark are of
one color— namely, Billy Button, Hel-
ene, Happy Traveler, Peralto. Al-
though among trotters there are a large
number of fast horses of various colors,
the majority of distinguished horses are
bays. The fastest horses among which
that color is predominant are legion.
The diversity and universality af color
in horses is a provision of nature, and
the cause of it cannot be explained by
finite minds. Why there should be
more bay horses than brown, more
brown than gray, more gray than black,
is a problem which the human mind
cannot solve.

Fattening slaves in a park and feeding
them up hike animals destined for the
table, and then leading them to a sham-
bles where they are slaughtered like ox-
en, cut into pieces and shared bit by bit
to hungry cannibals—such is the prac-
tice which is permitted, according to M.
Fondese, a French explorer, in some of
the French, Belgian, Portuguese, and
even British territoriesin Ubanghi. M.
Fondese was sent out three years ago by
the French government to discover the
source of the Niariguillon, and having
returned after the successful accomplish-
ment of his task, he hastens to tell his
countrymen all about the terrible things
which he has seen in his travels.
The “fattening parks” or paddocks
are, he says, to be seen in each village,
and contain men and women who have
been taken in war. The poor wretches
take their doom philosophically, and
some of them to whom M. Fondese of-
fered freedom actually refused it. They
eat, drink, dance and sing until the
head “Fetishman’’ comes round, accom-
panied by an orchestra of tom-tom and
tin-kettle players, selects a sufliciently
fat specimen, carries him or her to the
market place of the village, and splits
his or her head with a hatchet or scythe-
like knife. The eyes and tongue of the
victim are given to the “boss” fetish, and
the rest of the body is divided among

distribution of funds until after midnight
last night. The plan of distribution
will not differ greatly from the scheme
adopted Ly the Johnstown commitee
when the first distribution was made.
‘Whatever modification may be deter-

gained by the first experience. It was
decided by the Commission to give the
people of Johnstown $1,600,000 for
this distribution, which is at least $100,-
000 more than the representatives of the
Johnstown committee who were here last
night expected.
Secretary Kramer, of the Commission,

uncompleted contracts of $43,600, and
appropriations to other parts of the State
not yet paid, amounting to $74,190.07.
There has been expended in money and
