8 THE PITTSBUBG- DISPATCH, PEIDAT, SEPTEMBER 12, 1890. THE NEGRO PROBLEM. Cardinal Gibbons on the Best Solu tion of the Vexed Question. RELIGION AS WELL AS EDUCATION Necessary to Make Good and Useful Citi zens of the Colored lien. INDUSTRIAL TEAIKIXG ALSO NEEDED tSFECIAI. TEL EG K AM TO THE DISPATCH.! Uew Yoek, September 11. Cardinal John Gibbons, the head of the Roman Catholic Church in the United States, in a letter which he writes for the benefit of the American blacks, expresses his views as to the solution of the negro problem, and at the same time gives Afro-Americans sonnd and wholesome advice, as follows: "The negro problem is indeed one of the most vexed questions that agitate the world to-day. learned and well-meaning men who cave brought much reflection and the purest of motives to the study of the subject, differ widely as to its best solution. For mysell I would offer two suggestions in this connection which, it reflected upon and re duced to practice, will, I think, go tar toward a solution of this most difficult question. THE NEGBO'S GREATEST NEED. "First, it is conceded that a large pro- Jii portion of the colored people of the United fe btates are uneducated; ignorant to a deDlor- cble extent ot the most fundamental truths of Christianity, and this, I cheerfully add, through no fault of theirs. "What then is tbe first need of the colored people? A sound religious education; an education that will bring to them a practical knowledge of God, that will teach them their origion and the sublime destiny that awaits them in a better world; an education that will develop their superior being, that will inspire them with the love of wisdom, and hatred for sin, that will make tbem honest, moral. God-fearing men; sucb an education will elevate and en noble them and place them on a religious footing with the white.man. "Secondly, it is a matter of observation, that few colored people are mechanics. 2ow to be a factor in their country's pros perity, to make their presence lelt and to give any influence whatever to their at tempts to better their status, it is absolutely necessary that besides a sound religious training, they should be taught to be useful practical citizens; they should be brought up from childhood to HABITS OF INDUSTBT. "Thev should be taught that to labor is Honorable, ana tnat tee idler is a menace to the Commonwealth. Institutions should be lounded wherein young men may learn the trades best suited to their inclinations; thus equipped on the one hand well in structed Christians, on the other skilled workmen, our colored people may look for ward hopefully to the future. But until they have progressed so far, it is useless to deal in speculations as to their true rights. I am happy to bear testimony from personal observation to the many virtues that are exhibited among so many of the colored population of Maryland, especially their deep sense of gratitude for favors bestowed, and their affectionate disposition." ON A SLACK "VTOtE, And TVIlhont n Balancing Folc, It Is Fro posed to Cross Niagara. rSrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DlsrATCn.: Washington, September XL Accom panying George Thatcher's minstrels now here is a stout built American, born of German parents, at Pekin, 111., and whose stage name is Fraud La Mondue. Since lie was 12 years of age X.a Mondue has appeared in different thea ters and under canvas throughout the States a slackwire and tightrope per former. He is not content, however, with stage performances, and announces his intention of crossing Niagara .Falls within the next lew days on a slack wire, and without a balancing pole or any other support. In explanation of his plan he said that it had been the ambition of his life to do something to eclipse the achievements of Blondin and other tight rope walkers over Niagara Palls, and he expresses the fullest confidence in his abil ity to do as be promises. Two taut wires about the same diameter as telegraph wires will be stretched SO feet apart and parallel with each from the American to tbe Canadian shore. Slack wires about 75 feet long will be attached to these parallel wires "running cata-cornered" as the performer expressed it. There will prob ably be 8 or 10 of these loops and those who witnessed LaMondue'e performances in shows evince a willingness to back him in his per ilous undertaking. La Mondue is a smooth faced, stock-built young fellow about 30 years old, and weighs 200 pounds. Confi dence and pluck is written in every linea ment of his countenance, and he declares that he only wants well-tested steel wires to enable bim to cross Niagara Falls without any support turther than what he obtains by having his feet on the slack wire.

It will only require about three more feet to submerge her altogether Tberwork of raising her had lust commenced, but it will be delaved some time now.and may be months before any thing can be done to the boat. When it is raise'd it will be almost worthless on account of being down so long.
