Slavery in Eouador.
.1 French missionary, who has been travel
ling through Equador, has made inquiries
into the condition of the Indians, and report
that although they are nominally free they
are in a state of slavery. Although, accord-
ing to the laws the Indian is a free man, ho
is, as a matter of fact, bought and sold, be.
queathed by will, seized by a creditor in
payment of a debt, and is in no way distin-
guishable from a beast of burden, This state
of things is brought about by the law that
permits the Indian to sell himself into slav-
ery when he is unable to satisfy his creditor
in any other way. Once a slave, he is rarely
able to extricate himself from his servile
condition. His wife and children are also
slaves. The family is allowed a miserable
hut in which to lodge, and a small patch of
ground barely stfficient to supply the food
necessary to sustain life. A man who has
thus sold himself into slavery is attached to
the estate of his owner, and passes with ib
into the hands of the heir or purchaser, when
it is transferred by death or Bale. The great.
er part of the Indiana of the interior are re-
duced to this condition, and live a life of the
utmost degradation and misery,

• THE LIMB -R11,4 CLUB,
t'I observe dab de send -annual oeoashun
fur pitohin' into de divorce courts is now et
hand," said Bother Gardner, ac, the meet-
ing opened in due and ancient form. "It
has silus struck me as a mighty inconsistent
thing for people to argue dot you kin trade
a hose whioh duan' suit—aell a !muse you
dean' like—bust up a biznesa partnership
which ter' unpleasant—give away yer dog
an' pizsu yer oat, but you musn't part from
de husband or wife wbo is makin' yer iife
one of misery. I thank de law dab it was
wise snuff to foresee some sartin things, and
amang'em de fact dat people would make
mistakes in marryin'. It is only natural
dat dey should, and when day do divorce
am de easiest way out, If de Iaw refused
divorces, elopements and murders would in-
crease a hundred per Dent.
"When you hev tied up two people who
truly love, honor an' respect each other
—who kin bear an' sacrifice—who can smile
in adversity as well as in sunshine—you
hev done a blessed thing, an' airth an' Hew -
en ar' de better fur it. But when you hev
tied up two pussons who argy, bicker, dis-
pute and hate—who see nuffin alike --who
kin neither love nor respect, you would hev
de heart of Satan to foroe 'em to continer
etch a life. You oouldn't do it, Dar would
be murder if no other escape offered,
"Au' dar' am sartin pusaons who olaim dat
divorce induces laxity of morals, Among all
de scandals of the last y'ar hev you seen de
name of a divorced man or woman ? Among
all de bad women arrested in a year do you
find de name of a divorced woman ? It a'r de
wives an' gals who suioide —not de divorced
women. It ter' de wives an' gals arrested fur
street welkin' an' drunkennesa—not de di-
vorced women.
"Me an' my ole woman hev stood by each
other fur nigh onto fifty y'ars, an' we ar'
gwine to sail in de same boat of ar down to de
bank of de dark rebel.. We agree, We ar'
fitted fur each other. We think alike. Bub
suppose we didn't ? Suppose we quarreled
an' bickered an' wished each other dead? De
law which would compel us to live together
would be an inhuman thing. I ar' glad ebery
time 1 see dot a divorce has bin granted. I
wish de post was only $5 an' de time reduced
to one day. Husbands would hev mo' respect
an' tenderness fur deir wives—wives mo' con-
fidence an' trust in deir husbands. We will
now attack de reeler programme of bizness."
SHE WANTS DAMAGES.
The secretary announced a communication
from a Mrs. Moses Taylor, of Lexington,
Ky., who announced that her husband fell
into a creek and was drowned while on his
way to mail an application for membership
in the club. She had been advised by a col-
ored ex. justice of the peace,to demand $5,000
from the club as damages, it being as plain as
the nose on a man's face that if Moses had
not decided to join the club he would not
have been drowned. If the money was not
torth•oomingshe would bring euitfor double
the amount.
Brother Giveadam Jones was instructed
to borrow and carefully peruse as many as a
dozen law -books, if necessary, and to inform
Mrs. Taylor that the club would die in the
last ditch sooner than pay her claim.
HE WAS SQ17ELCHED.
The following communications, dated from
New Y ork, was then read :
BRC. GARDNER—I am now "gravitating"
toward Detroit with my great lecture on
"Gravitation." I have an open date for May
21, and would be pleased to arrange with the
Lime. Kiln Club for this date. • Terms, $250,
(C. O. D. ), which includes printing, adver-
tising, heat, lighb and incidentals, The
club may fix the price of tickets and net a
handsome sum, This is an opportunity
that you cannot afford to let pass. An early
reply will favor yours truly.
EDITOR C. A. JOHNSON.
P. S.—Will divide ten per cent of the $250
with the officers of the club. This on the
strict Q T.
"I move dal de terms be accepted," said
Samuel Shin as soon as the reading waa fin-
ished.
"Brudder Shin, do you know what you
ar' talkin' 'bout V. demanded the president
in severe tones. "Sot righ down an' keep
mum or I will fine you ten millyon dollars
fur disturbing the meetin' ! Now, den,
who is Mistah Johnson ? What ar' grav-
itasbun ? Why should we want him to
lecktur' info' die club at any price ? De
seokretary will answer him to de effeck to
keep away from Detroit at his peril.'
"I suppose de cha'r knows what gravita-
tion is?" queried the Rev. Penstock as he
arose.
"De cha'r does, Brudder Penatook 1"
sharply answered the president. "Dir cha'r
has made a speshul study of gravitashun.

very creditable to the Government that a

Tice New eteawshlps of the White Star Mac.
Builders of the great ocean linen which.
are every few dayastartling the public, by
reduolng the already remarkable trans.
atlantic record, find a difiloulty which in
greases with the size of the ships. To build
a strong steel ship of modern dimensions,
and make her perfectly riahb, is a matter of,
no small difficulty,, but when the length
grows into the neighborhood of 600 feetit
is almost impossible to conatruot a ship that
will atand the necessary tossing to which
ocean boats are eubjeoted and tat the same
time give no indi;abeona of weakness. The
trouble cornea st the end joininga of the
steel plates. - The usual method is to rivet
the ends of both plates to a steel butt strap
on the inside et the ship, This leaves the
outside smooth, and is strong, provided itis
not aubjeoted to too great a strain. But
when a ship 600 feet long is balanced on a
wave these rivets are very liable to give a
little and if the seams once begin to work
the vessel's ohances of surviving are small:
In building the City of New York the seams
were strengthened by planing butt straps on
the outside, Thus her sides are decorated
at regular intervals with great patches of
steel an inch in thioknese. In order to over-
come the resistance these offer in passing
through the water her steam power was in-
creased 2i per cent. In constructing the
White Star steamships '['eutonic and Ma-
jestic, both of which are 565 feet long on the
line the builders welded the ends of
waterline,
the plates together, making the streaks
equal to one continuous plate the entire
length of the ship. Great strength is ex-
pected to result from this mode of construc-
tion, and the owners believe that the large
additional Dost of building will be fully re-
turned by the inoreased seaworthiness of the
ship, as well as the increased speed,
For several years the owners of the White
Star Line have not taken any forward stops.
They were the first to plane fast ships on
the great ocean ferry, and for atimetheir re•
cords were the wonder of all, while the
comforts of travel by the now ships were
something quite unheard of before. Gradu-
ally other lines have Dome to the front and in
size and speed have excelled, and while the
White Star lines are still looked upon as safe
and comfortable boat, their records have
ceased to attract notice. It isnowproposed
at one gigantic step to pass the records of all
fast ships and plane the line again in the
front rank for speed. The Teutonic and Ma-
jestic will be out noon and will revive inter-
est just as the runs of the City of Paris and
City of New York are becoming old stories.
Inolined to Sarcasm.
" Miss Belle Pepperton is a very sarcastic

" I hare noticed some tendency that way
in her. What has she been saying to you ?"
" Why, yesterday evening I was calling
on her, and daring the eveningol remarked
that if she wished I would tell her of a little
incident, adding that it had jest croeaed
my mind. "
" What did she say ?"
" She merely looked at me and remarked,
" Did ib have tar to travel, Mr. De Jay ?

" No; but I looked grieved."

A worthy man who was very sensitive
and retiring, having lost his wife, privately
requested that he might be remembered is
the minister's morning prayer from the
pulpit, but asked that his name might not
be mentioned. On Sunday morning the
Rood minister prayed moat eloquently for
"our aged brother upon whom the heavy
hand of sore affliction hath so lately fallen."
At this point an elderly man whom the
minister had married to a very young wife
during the week arose with a bounce and
stamped down the aisle, uttering, loud
enough to be heard half over the chapel,
"It may be an affliction, but I'm blessed if I
wont to be prayed for in that fashion 1"

A Curious Paot.
An interesting calculation, solving the
question of how many minutes have passed
at the end of 1888 since the beginning of the
Christian era, has been published in an arti-
cle which appears in a recent issue of the
"Neuesbe Nachrichten" (Munchen). The
result will be a surprise to a good many, for
not one milliard have elapsed. The writer
gives us the figures of his calculation, and
figures are acknowledged to be stubborn
facts. He states that 1888 multiplied by 365
days egnals 689,120 days, to which must to
added 460 leap days, making a total of 689,•
580 days, which contain 16,549,920 hours,
or 992,995,200 minutes, that is, 7,004,800
minutes less than a milliard. The full mil-
liard of minutes will not be reached until-
10.40 a.m. on Apri 28, 1902.
Some Old Maxims,
The sacred books of India contain the
following maxima :
"Who is cursed by a woman is cursed by
God."
"He who despises woman despises his
mother."
"It is time to appreciate all things at
their true value."
"Evil to him who laughs at woman's sof-
ferings ; God shall laugh at hie prayers."
"The tears of a woman call down the fire
of heaven on those who make them flow."
"It Was at the prayer of a woman that
the Creator pardohed man. Cursed bo he
who forgets it,"
"When women ate honored the divinities
are content ; bat when they ate not honored
all undertakings fail."
"The households nursed by women to
whom they have not rendered the homage
dire them "find themselves 'weighed down
with rust.. and destroyed a. if they had

Midnight Revels in Piccadilly.
The noournal orgies which formerly made
the Haymarket, Oxenden street and Panton
street infamous have long since been stamp
ed oub, and the thoroughfares in question
are now as respectable as any at the West
End, says the London "Times." The venue
of profligatev has been ehtfted to the once
pacific p Pwoadilly, and night after night, from
the circus as far as the Green Park, there is
the same scene of riot, horsel lay and =re-
strained diaenluteueas. It is becoming weari
some to chronicle these repeated exceases ;
but until the streets are cleared of night
prowlere and theircmnfederetes it is neces-
sary to revert againand again to the scandal.
The M'Vlagistrate et Marlborough street had to
deal yesterday with two more "well-dressed
young women," who were charged as "drunk
and disorderlies," Piccadilly et near 1
o'clock:; in the morn(og having been the
scene of their exploits, They s touted, shriek -
ea and danced, oausei a orowd to assemble
at the corner of Dover street and rained the
whole neighborhood by the uproar they
made. They were only fined half a crown
each. We do not protest against the leni-
ency of this sentence. The magistrates evi•
dently do not know what to do with these
unfortunate women. It is the law itself
which needs ro be definitely ascertained,
strengthened and inflexibly enforced ere we
can'hope for the abatement of the Piccadilly
nuisance.
The Toronto girls may wear glasses, bnt
they are never short sighted enough to make
epectaeles of themselves.
Innovation—that little imp of disturbance
—has shown its mocking face in an Ottawa
Episcopalian congregation, and "a protnund
sensation," according to the newspaper
repsrts, has been the result. The "innova-
tion" in gneation is the desire on the parb of
the rector to sing a solo during some part of

the British Government will assume control
of telephonic communication in the United
Kingdom. The French Government has al.
ready decided upon a similar step. The
monopoly of the company which is operating
in Paris expires next September, and the
Government now proposes to purchase its
lines and work them itself. in 1886 the,
company signed a nnntract with the Depart•

thirty-five years, during widen a rent was to

the term, would enter into possession of ail
the lines without payment. This arrauge-
nsent, however, was not ratified by Parlia•
ment.
