A IiliAVK WOMAN. In tlio autumn of 1ST7 a portion of tho Capo Colony known us Uulcknlaud had 1k'u In considerable ferment, and tho iirts, ufter smoldering for some time, had Lrokcti out in tha Humes of rebellion and war. Tlio fierce tri!e who inhabited thin country from tho first conquest by tho Enrlibh iu IHSA bore tho yoke of thralldom with no crood trraco, and had on nioro than one occasion sitiro that timo broken out In revolt against their conquerors, and as many petty breaches of disciplino and good behavior had gono unpunished, had at length thrown down tho gauntlet to England and commenced hostilities by a Ftidden ami violent attack upon her native allies, tho Fingres, an adjoin ing tribe. A call to arms was made by the colonial authorities, aud as pooii as forces could be organized they were sent with all haste to the front to chock these savages in their career of rapine and 11 under. It is during the time that passed between the breaking out of the wur and tho arrival of troops to the rescue of the scattered white population in this rebel lious district that the following episode took place. Situated about fifteen miles from Ibeka, a small native village and in the Idutche reserve, was a lonely mission station, comprising a small chapel, a house and a few native huts. Hero it was that a member of the Church of England Mis sionary society carried on his Tabors and Roi'ht to turn theso savages from their ways of darkness to those of light. The family besides the minister consisted of his wife and three small children, the eldest a girl aged 12 and two boys, aged respectively 10 and 7. besides which were two native female servants. At the time of the attack by the Kaffirs tipon the Fingres the missionary Mas away from home attending to his religious duties at a neighboring village. The first news of tho rising that reached his wife was of a dreadful massacre that had taken place by the Kaffirs near Ibeka, in which the proprietor of a 6toro and his family haa been murdered by a band of these bloodthirsty warriors after a stub born resistance, and the storo looted and burnt. Tlio poor woman was for tho mo laent paralyzed with fear as to what would be the fate of her husband, far from home and unarmed, and in tho midst of theco relentless foes, and also what would be tho fato for herself and her children if an attack was mado upon them. The first night was passed in anxious watching and W waiting and hoping against hope that her husband might return, though she knew that unless warning had reached him lu timo he must bo ere now surrounded. Tlio morning dawned without any event tt irujor; at ice having occurred, and the day wore :i and no sign of either friend or fiiemy was seen. Another night passed a-ni .viotlier dawn broke, and with it camo tc-j-riMe news. A friendly native who had be:-u f raveling on during the night re pr: -d to oue of the servants that the lien "s at Qui nt ana had cruelly butchered thi. missionary is a drunken frenzy, turn - ing a deaf ear to his entreaties to cpare him who (had done them no harm, and that ho had died after enduring terrible torture, asking pardon for his murderers. The shock was terrible to tLe afllicted wife, but tho instinct of the mother arose within her for the preservation of her children. She assumed command of tho little garrison aud set herself about victualing it to withstand a siege if neces sary. Everything was brought In frora the chapel and stored in the house, tho windows and doors were barricaded with bags of mealies (corn), and anything that came to hand that would serve to turn a spear or stop a bullet. A plentiful supply of water was brought in from tho 6 1 ream, and lastly all the available arms of tho quondam fortress were turned out. loaded and put In readiness at some small l'Htpholes that had been left for the pur pose. A friendly native went out to recon jioiter, and about 10 o'clock returned with the startling information that a band of about fifty men, on foot and on horse back, were making their way across the .plain in the direction of the station, and were then about three miles distant, com ing on at a leisurely pace, but f ully armed. Tho doors were instantly fastened and . barricaded and every corner of the house was inspected by its brave commander, who determined to sell herself and her little ones as dearly as possible. She strove to rally the courage of her little force bv p raver and a recollection that they were lu God's hands, but the servant! were almost beside themselves and moaned and wept at their Impending danger. A little hero arose In the eldest boy, who said: "You and Tombi shoot, in a a in a. and I and Harry will load the guns." Nearly an hour passed in thia dreadful suspense. The approaching party came leisurely on and headed toward a point a quarter of a mile to tho left of the house, where they paused, and hope began to assert itself that after all they might pass and leave them unharmed. Cut it soon became evident that the re sult of this short halt only meant a council of war as to the plans to be pur sued in attacking the house, their eagle eyes having taken in the fact that it Lad been put into a stago of siege and that the inmates were determined to show fight. About a dozen of the horsemen galloped forward, and pulling up their horses a hundred yards from the house, one of their number rodo forward a few paces and sending out his strong voice, he uttered in the peculiar rolling, mellifluous language of the KaCir a summons upon the grj-risou to surrender, promising that their lives should be" spared. . There was cot an inmate of that household th.it did not know bow littlq .tho word of a Kaffir could he relied upon, and the reply that was sent forth to tLls demand was that the baird rhoT-Ji move on about their busi oei: t: d leive their masters, the English, i to theirs. A derisive laugh from the sav age iillj-.ved this, and he yelled out a bl-o.l .:'rrling answer that his band won! t h ar the hearts ont cf the inmates, as t j ".-d from the fisher- They then -. " rtii-i tv7"t, cn r within flcventy yards, when they stopped nnu commenced u wild firing fort, the b:tlls from their rille. upon tho bide: and roof, but upon th a paltering doing no damage. Tho brave lady, with her one compan ion iu arms and nurrounded by tho two boys, who each grasped a cartridge, Kent a reply in tho fchupo of a volley from their rifles which took efTect upon one of tho enemy. A fusilado was kept up on both, hides for (;or.;o minutes, the gallant little, baud inside being untouched, but several of tho besiegers had been wounded and their fury was raised to a frenzy as they wero met by a gulling fire, try what qunr ter of the building they would. Again they retired to consult, and as a result mounted thoir horses and, followed by the footmen, rodo away. The brave woman, ulmost exhausted by tho great r'l.vsical strain that had been put upon her, found vent in a Hood of tears as she threw her self into tho arms of her boys aud. grasp ing tho hand of their brave ally, they sank upon tho ground and gave thanks for their preservation. But they knew tho craftiness and hate of the savago too well not to bo awaro that the worst was not yet over and that tho band would re turn, perhaps with reinforcements, aud attack them. That day passed in, anxiety, hut no enemy appeared and night fell, and still there was no sign of their foes. The faith ful Fingre urged them to rest while ho watched, and thus the night passed until the first blush of dawn showed itself hi tho east, when the watcher awakened his mibtress and quietly told her to prepare for another onslaught. His eyes had not mistaken the indistinct figures that ho caught a glimpse of hi the darkness, for hardly had the besieged reached their posts when they were assailed with a heavy fire of bullets, and iu the uncer tain light they saw a large number of the relentless KaiErs making a rush towards them. Their rifles cracked time and time again as they emptied the contents at the advancing savages, now scarcely twenty yards distant, but these did not waver, they hurled themselves against the bar ricades, which they endeavored to beat down, and some, having lit torches, threw them upon the thatched roof of the build ing, setting it on fire and adding another terrible phase to their already desperate condition. Tho poor mother was now al most driven to despair; the new danger threatened destruction. But again the he roic boy came to the rescue. Bidding his sister take his place at the cartridge box ho moved towards tho kitchen of the building, which was in the rear, and, peep ing through the loop hole, reconnoitered. The enemy had retired, waiting for the fire to do the work for them, and the lad. haviug assured himself that no one was lurking around, crept out with a pail of water and, groping his way towards where tho nearest torch had been thrown, emptied the contents upon it and re turned. . Twice he did this, and was emerging a third time, when he was grasped by tho throat by a huge Kaffir, who dragged him away towards the at tacking baud. Tlio appearance of the KafDr with his captive was tlio signal for a wild yell and with tho trembling boy intheir midst they dashed onco more towards t he house. The horror of tho now frautic mother was ter rible, as in the fast approaching daylight she recognized her boy In tho hands of theso monsters. Moreover, sho dared not shoot for fear of wounding her son, who called out to his mother "to shoot and not to mind him." The Kaffirs, brandishing their assegais around the boy, swore that if the besieged did not surrender ho should bo butchered in front of his mother's eyes and ono already pressed tho point, of his spear against tho boy's chest. The grief of the woman was heartrending, and it was with difficulty that she could be dis suaded from rushing forth towards her son, but her agony was short lived. Even as sho wavered there aroso upon the morning air a clattering of hoofs, aud, beforo the savages could recover from their surprise, with a hearty cheer and sabers raised aloft, theie dashed into their midst a party of Cape Mounted Rifles. It was a caso of "sauve que peut," and the enemy broke aud fled. A bfoody war followed, in which many deeds of valor were done, but none that outshone the defense of the bravo woman at the Idutche. Fred (J. Browning in Philadelphia Times. Injurious Effects of Jfoise. A writer in The Popular Science Monthly asserts that noiso is one of the most injurious Influences of city life. It may not be sufficiently loud to attract the attention of those accustomed to it, hut, if continuous, it acts as inevitably upon tho nervous system as water in dropping upon a stone. Experiments made upon animals show that when they have been subjected, for a number of hours, to the vibration of a tuning fork, their nerve centers became irritated, as" certainly as muscular fibers would be affected by an acid or an electric shock. The injurious effect of ordinary noises has been recognized by the authorities of European cities, and, in some cases, tho nuisance has been suppressed. Heavily laden carts are not admitted to certain streets of Berlin, and in others they are only allowed to pass on condition that the horses walk. The street cars of Munich have no bells, and those of us who live in places where these bells are not used on Sunday can testify to the relief attend ant oa the consequent "peace and quiet." The amount of the matter seems to be that the city dweller must regard noise as one of the necessary evils of his condi tionone to be borne philosophically, and requiring a large stocic of grace and pa tience. Happy, Indeed, are they who, through the long hot months, are only disturbed in their morning slumbers by the song of the birds or the crowing of cocks. Youth's Companion. The Swells of Virnna. The Bwelldom of Vienna is a difficult thing to define, but the spectacular and prominent men seem altogether devoted to riding and driving. 1 ney have a won derful breed of email, clean limbed and handsome horses, most of which come fro si Hungary, and they are remarkably Cory and intelligent. Most of the toffs Li Vienna drive from two to six of them out to the races every Cay through the park usually to a curious little break that i3 part mull cart, part phaeton and part bugy. Tho dark eyed and beautiful women of Vienna f ?cm especially taken by these remark able traps. The men always hold mili tary rank and are very correct, square shouldered, small of waist and natty in vloso fitting uniforms. They wear white kid gloves, and send their fiery little teams along through the park at a clip ping rate, blowing a kiss now and then or waving a f -t g -iL?ntly at the lines w -V .

We hold a free and honest pop ular ballot and tut and equal representation of all people to be the foundation of our re publican govel nineiiT aud demand effective legislation to ctciue the integrity and purity of election which are Hie fountains ot all ui lie authority.

We accent the Issue, and confidently appeal to the people for their judgment. The piotoetive system must be maintained. Its abandonment has at way ben followed by general dishi-ter to all interests except those of the uuMirer and sheriff. We denounce the Mills' bill as destructive to general busmens, labor, and the farming inter ests of the country, and .e heartily endorse the consistent and patriotic action of the re publican reprrsentat ives lu congress in oppos ing its passage. We condemn the proposition of the democratic party to place wool on the free list aud iusls' that the duties thereon shal be adjusted and maintained so as to fur nish full and adequate protection to that ia-du-try. The republican party would effect all needed reduction of the national revenue by repealing the taxes on tobacco, which are an arrogance ami burden to agriculture, and the tax upon spirits used iu the arts and for mechanical pur poses, and by hiielt revision of the tariff laws as will tend to check imports ot such articles as are produced by our people, the production of winch gives employment to our labor, and re lease from import duties these ai tides of for eign production, except luxuries, the like of which cannot ht produced at home, there i-hall still remain a larger revenue than is requisite for the wants of government, of internal taxes rather than surrender any part of our i rotec tive system at the joint behest of the whisky ring and agents of foreign manufacturers. AGAINST PAUfElt ANI LA BOB TKUSMS. We declare hostility to the introduction into this country of foreign contract labor and of Chinese labor alien to our civilization aud our constitution, and we demand the rigid enforce ment of existing laws against it and favor such immediate legislation as will exclude such la bor from our shores. We declare our opposition to all combina tions of capital organized in trusts or other wise to control arbitrarily the condition of trade among our citizens and we recommend to co-tvgress and the state legislatures in tneir respective jurisdictions sucli legislation as will prevent me execution oi an scneiues io oppress he pec pie by undue charges ou t heir supplies orbyunju-t rates for the transportation of their prouucisio inarKet. we approve legislation by congress to pre vent aiiKe unjust ouruens anu uniair u.scruu- iiiatioii bet weon states.

W e re.-' Hum the policy of appropTnting. the public hinds of the Chlted States to be home steads for American citizens and settlers not aliens, w hici the republican party established iu siga'nst the persiste.it opposition of the democrats in congress, which has brought our great western domain into magnificent de velopenievt. '1 lie restoration of unearned land grants to the public doui iiu for the uso of ac tual settlers, which was begun under the ad ministration of f'rcs'dent Arthur should be continued. We d ny that the democratic party has ever restorer) one aci to uie people, but declare that by the joint action of republicans and democrats about fifty million acres of un earned lauds, originally granted for the con si ruction of railroads, have been restored to the public domain in pursuance of conditions inserted by the republican party in the oiigin al jrrauts. We charge t e democratic adminis tration viih li'.iitire to execute laws securing to settlers title to then homesteads and wilii us ing appropriations made for that purpose to harrass h noeent settlers with spies mid prose cutions under the false lii'ciense of exposing frauds aud vindicating the law. ADMISSION OF TEKU1TORIKS, The government by congress of the territor ies is based upon necessity only to the end that they may heeome states in the union ; there fore, whenever the conditions of population, material resources, p'.blie intelligence and morality are such as to Insure stable local gov ernmebt therein t lie people of such territories should he permitted, a right inherent in them, to form for themselves constitutions and state governments and be ad-nitted into the union, fending preparatl in for statehood all oflicers thereof should be selected from bona fide residents and citizens of the territory wherein they are to serve. South Dakota should of right be immediately admitted as a state h: the union under the constitution framed, and adopted by her people and we heartily en dorse 1 be action of the republican senate in twice passing bills for her admission. 1 he re fusal of the" democratic houe of representa tives, jor partisan purpwses, to favorably con sider these bills is a willful violation of the sacred American principle of local self-government, and merits the condemnation of all just men. 'the pending bills in the senate for acts to enable the oeople of Washington, North Dakota and Montanna territories to form con stitutions and establish state goveninie..ts should be passed without unnecessary delav. The republican party pledges inself to do all in its power to facilitate the admission of the ter ritories of New Mexico. Wyoming. Idaho aud Arizona to the enjoyment of self-government as states. Such of them as are now qualified as soon as possible. and others as soon as they nay become no. THE MORM03 QUFSTIOV. The political power of the Mormon courch in the tenitories as exercised lu the past is a menance to free institutions too dangerous to be lonp suffered. TSerefore we pledge the re publican party to appropriate legislation, asserting the sovereignty of the nation in all the territoiies where the sttiie is questioned, and in furtherance of that end to place upon the statute book legislation stringent enough to divorce political from ecclesiastical power, aud thus stamp out the attendant wickedness of polygamy. 'J lie republican party la lu favor of the use of both gold and silver as money, and con demns the policy of the democratic adminis tration in its efforts to demonetize silver. We demand the reduction of letter postage to 1 cnt per ounce. In a republic like ours, where the citizens Is the soveitign ?cd the official the servant, where no power is exercised except by the wi.l of the people. It Is im;ortaut that the sover eign r-eople should possess intelligence. The free school is the promoter of that intelligence which is to preserve ns a free nation. There fore, the state or nation, or both conbined. should support free Institutions of learning sufticlent to xfford to eyery child grow ing up in the land the oppottuuity of a good coinmou school education. OUR ERCHAST MAKINE, We earnestly recommend that prompt action be taken c.npie.ss iu the e actnient of such legislation as will best secure the relmbili a tion of cur American merchant marine, and we protest against the passage by congress cf a free shin bill as calculated to work injtutice to labor by lessening the wages of those en gaged in preparing materials as well as those directly emploved in our shipyards. e de mand appropriation for the erly rebuildini; of our navy. fer tho conctruetion of c-'Rfct. fortifications and modern ordinance and othr approved modern mea-s of defense tor the protection of our defenseless harbors and cities, for the payment of just pei shms to our soldiers, for nocessarv w rks of national rn portane iu the improvement of the harbors and channels of Internal, coastwtser and re gn commeeff. for th encouragement f the shionine Interests of tt A'laut'-C.

The conduct of foreign affairs by the pteent ailiniiilstiaf ion has beeu dlt Ingulshed ny inef licieicy ai.d cowardice. Having withdrawn from the senate all pending tiea'les effected by republican admlnistratloi s for the removal of foieigu buideiis and restrictions upon our couiineice and for its extension int.j a better n aihet U has neither affected nor proposed any others In their stead. Professing adher ence to the Monroe doctrine, it has seen with bile complacency the extension of foieigu lu lluence iu Central America and of foreign t raile ever where among our neighbors, ft has re fused to charter, sanction or encourage any American organiz) t ion for constructing the Nicaragua canal, a work of vtal importance to the maintenance of the Monroe dot-trine and of tur national influence iu Central arol South America, and nceessHiy fur (he development of (rude with our fuel lie territory, with Sou'h A merica, and with the further coasts of the I'aeihc Ocean. KISI1KHIKS lUKS'l HIS. We arraign the present democratic admi'iU t ration for its weak ind unpaii ioi Ic treatment of the llsheiies question, and Its pui-tl!niiiuious surrenderor a!! privileges to which our fishery vi-ssels are entitled in Canadian poMs under the treaty of 1M". the reeiprceale inuriii tine lei'bhitiou of I KIM) and comity of nal ions, and which Canadian fishing vessels receive iu the ports of file Tinted Slates, v.e contemn the i olicy of the present ailminisiia.tiou and the democratic majority In congress towards our fisheries as unfiiendlv and ceHspiclously uiinatiiotic ami a-i tending to destroy a valuable ual jontil industry and an iiidispensililc resource of defense against f . reign enemy.

The men who al liidoued the republican par ty in lsx4 and continue to adhere to the demo cratic party have deserted not only the cause of honest government, but of sound nuance, of freedom and purity of the ballot, but espec ially have deserted the cau-e of reforoi in the civil service. We will not fall to keep our tiledges because tl ev have broken theirs, or ie-anse their candidate has broken his. W'e therefore repea' our declaration of lss4. towit : The reform of civil service auspiciously begun under republican administration should be completed by a further extension of th reform s stem already established by law to all grades of I he service to which it is applied. The spir it and purpose of reform should be observed in all executive appointments, and all laws at varience with the object of existing reform It g islation should be repealed, and that the dan gers to free institutions which lurk in the pow er of official patronage may be wisely and ef fectively avoided. The gratitude of the nation to the defenders of the union cannot be assured except bv laws. The legislation of congress .should conform to the pledges made by a loyal people, and lie so enlarged and extended as to prov'de against the possibility that any man who honorably wore the federal uniform shall become an In mate of an almshouse or dependent on private charity. In the presence of an overflowing treasury it would h" a public scandal to do less for those whose valorous service preserved the government. We denounce the hostile spirit shown by President Cleveland in his numerous vetoes of measures for pension relief, and the action of the democratic house of representa tives in refusing even consideration of general pension legislation. In support of the principles herewith enun ciated, we invite the co operation of patriotic men of all parties, especially of all working men whose prosperity is seriously threatened by the free trade policy of the present admin istration. The first cor cern of all good government is the virtue and sobriety of t lie people Mid the purity of their homes. The republican party cordially sympathizes with hll wise and well directed efforts for the promotion of temper ance. BUSINESS DUtECTOKY. TTOKNKY. S. F. THOMAS. Attorney rat Lawand Notary Public.
