OMAHA BAELY BEE : FRIDAY. OCTOBER 7 , 1887. TUB Irof. Knalejr'a Interesting Lecture On Ills Social Ht at UK , Prof. N II. Knsloy , of Alcorn college , llodnoy , Miss , , lectured last night on the "Social Status of the Negro. " The audi ence , although not largo , wns composed mostly of white people. The lecturer was not of the darkest iiiio , but his language tvas of the cholncst description , blending ( pathos nnd pnotic sentiment with an array of fuels that showed the professor was a man ot thought as well as an indus trious student. A few only of the loading thoughts ho expressed are given. He said his primary Idea wns to talk to Ms own race alone , but as ho continued ills travels lie found the white people largely attending. The black man was not a colored man , but In point of fact , knowing whut black nnd white arc , tlio white man was really the man of color. The whites in Mississippi nro accused of bulldozing , anil whllp that , was true , the noirro was the greatest of bulldozers. They would not tolerate free speech. They had been voting the republican ticket since the war , but if ho studied his own interest in the south he Should desert the republican party , simply because the condition of the races there would not permit him to succeed. For himself , he Iind always voted the republican ticket. The negro goes always with the republi- cans.HID white man with the democrats , nnd continual enmity is the result. In AlisEissippI the republican party was about gone , because of its division on local issues. Ho could not discuss the negro problem m such a manner ns lo nBcend to the stars , but the race Is suc ceeding. The statement hns been made that all negroes are on the same plan- roll them in Hour or in any way try to mak.0 them different and the result is they are "nicgers. " It makes mo Indig nant to hear that argument. True , the race has no society based on moral char acter , and it may sometimes bo thought that the good cannot be told from the bad , but still they are not "all niggers together. " You may civili/.o Mm and he will still continue n negro. He thinks himself a serf nt all times. Lot him look into a railway coach or oilier traveling conveyance , nnd should ho HOC one of his race there ho will crowd past all others and sant himself beside the man , nnd should the latter bo well dressed , of n gentlemanly nature and nt nil high minded , and not likely to en tourage the very loud talk and greasy eatruonts and offensive ways of the new- comw , the latter at once tells all his ac quaintances that the gentlemanly man has the big head and only wants to associate with white folks. That all negroes nni equal is not true. Other in stances of the traveling scene were given. When a man wants n wife ho wants her wealthy and good looking nnd clean , but she must bo inferior in power to himself. Nbturo has forbidden the socinl equality ot the negro witli the white man. And it should bo so. All the trees in the forest should not bo blended. Variety tvas a source of beauty and pleas ure. He Hnccilied the different races and their peculiarities nnd showed how fool- > yfh it would be to blend them. They should all stand as they are , but love each other they must , h The lecturer said ho loved his own race , i but ho nlho loved the human family. I' ' AVhat benefits ono race bunelits all. Let every ono bring his power and Iny it on tlie altar of Immunity. They say in Now York social life they ask a candidate for Admission , "How much money have YOU got ? " in Philadelphia thev " ask , " \Vlio was your father ? " and in" Boston they say , "How much do you know ? " The negro has no race pride. The Egyptian points to his many achievements in archi tecture , the Greek to art , thu Roman to his prowess in arms , which is still felt , the English to spreading conquests , the American to progress and dashing quali ties , but lo 1 the negro savs there is nothing for 1116 to bo proud of. Ho dwelt upon the emotion of the race as great. lie sometimes carried it to excess , out how much more was ho properly sensitive to liner chords than the Saxon intellec tual sphynx. The late war was dwelt upon and what it had achieved , While the negro stood for the union , he never was false to his master. The churches some times refused n negro preacher a call because he was too black , without any reference to his brains. A boast was made of bhio blood , which was necessa rily of an inferior kind. A pure black negro is a premier of the royal blood. "I would ratlusr have como in a pure line from a frog , " said the speaker , "than lo como from an adulterated race. " The immorality of the negro preacher was dwelt upon and he said that the devil himself would blush at the sins of many of thorn. HD compared the white and black races in this re.snoct ; spoke of the discrimination of society regarding social sins ; of the negro's thefts nnd lies and fondness for watermelons , as well as the different Kinds of sins of the white man. In Mississippi the black man could vide in any car in thu state. The same could not bo said of Now York. He him self waa refused n cup of tea in an ordin ary restaurant at Lincoln , so that Mis sissippi is ahead of this proud northern state. At the conclusion of the lecture ho sat at the organ and sang a pleasing song. . . NOltTJt OMAHA. SKWKlt. \voik Will Be Kesumod With a Full Force This Morninir. The BIX of yesterday anrt Wednesday contained ohaplers about the slopping of work on the North Omaha sower. It was shown that the contractors , Messrs. Delaney , Thomson & Murphy , had boon putto unusual expense because of cav- inir in of the walls and ot.hor accidents which could not have been foreseen and were consequently without a ready supply of money on Monday last to enable them to meet all their obligations. At that time , however , Mr. Thomson was in Sioux City endeavoring to collect money which was duo him from that city fo'r public improvements , and was delayed then ) until last night. That gentleman , however , has now returned to this city nnd the men remaining unpaid will bo remunerated this morning for the few days Ihoy have been without their wages , nnd the Work will be recommenced and pushed forward to an early completion. thousands of cures follow the use of Dr. Sago's Uatnrrh Uoinoay. 50 conts.

An action was begun yesterday a f tor- noou in the district court by the Police men's Relief association for tlio collection of $ OoO , the amount duo Mr.Scavoy , chief of police , from the city , for services from March 25 to October 1. This is the first of a series of suits which will bo begun in order that the council may be compelled to pay the claims of the police , which claims shall be regularly purchased. It is reported that to-day the day men will be paid from the fund collected and the long-looked-for relief obtained , anil on Tuesday nt the night men will bo similarly dealt with.

F1KE MM ITS How It In Claimed the Council lias Connlrcil nt Its Violation. Some time ago the matter of granting to C. U , Havens & Co. the rleht to re- tnovo and build s frame coal shed on Webster street opposite the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha road waa Introduced into the council. It was claimed that the firm intended to erect nn iron roof , r.nd it Is now claimed that the council granted the permission sought , though no information of the kind had been vouchsafed the building inspector. The shed in question Is within the fire limits and can not bo erected without vlo lating Iho fire ordinance , Yet resi dents in the neighborhood claim that It Is now being Tniilt , and that It U u menace to tholr property. It is further claimed that the council could not legally grant a request to put up such a shed unless upon the showing by a majority of Iho properly owners in Iho vicinity that the same was not objected to by them. Yeslcrday morning a number of the neighbors raised objections and were vainly looking for somebody who could protect their interests In the matter. Cheap Rates to Chicago.

HER HOUSEHOLD RESOURCES. Tlio Prince of Wnlca Votes IJornstofT a Uoro Tlio Danish King's Pond- ness for Photographs A Fru gal and Sensible Woman. A correspondent of the New York World writing from Copenhagen , Sop- tombcr 20 , says : At the time when CopenhftKcn was brilliant with flags and garlands of flowers , chiinco led mo to this 'Tcntco of the North. " The sevcn- tcuuth annivorstiry of Queen Louise's birtU was recently celebrated by the in habitants of Denmark , and then the cify was very gay , for , except the unfortunate Duchess of Chambcrland , every member of the royal family was at the castle of Fredonsborg. There was among the gathering the czir and empress of Russia , prince and princess of Wales , king and queen of Greece , with their bnhilontmidcs royal sons ) . Fredensborg resembles the country house'of a gentleman rather than the palace of a king , but it seems that its lux ury is too overwhelming for the simple tastes of Christian IX. and his queen. As a summer residence they prefer one- Btorietl Uerastoir , but hero it was Impos sible to offer hospitality to children and innumerable grandchildren. 1 think the favorite son-in-law is the czar , for ho waste to bo scon Urivingovory day with the king and , Indeed , Alexander III. had the air of u very happy man. Perhaps it was because ho had an opportunity to throw oil'tho cares of state and devote wms-jlf to domestic felicity. Tlio c/.ar loves sim plicity , and is always glad to be at Bern- atoll. Here he insisted the family re joicings should take place , but when his fathcr7ln-law told him that at Uornstoft there would bo but one room for the en tire imperial suite he decided that Fred ensborg must bo a necessity , for Homo days at least. The prince of Wales , on the contrary , finds these visits to his wifu's family more than tiresome , however , for Alex ander's sake ho makes a martyr of him- solt almost every year. His favorite saying is , "Nothing can be more stupid than Hcrnstou" , unless it be Prudent- burg. " Frodousborg is not very imposing in its architecture. It consists of a central pavilion with a long suit of wings , the whole crowned by a dome or cupola of zinc. At the entrance are stationed two guards dressed in the most picturesque blue costumes. Frodonsborg means "peaceful castlo" nnd the presence of those guards denotes extra precau tion , for at HernstofT a single Danish dog protects the royal inmates. The second story of ircndunsborg contains the family apartmunts. To reach this one must mount a wooden staircase , painted white and covered witli a well- worn carpet. Long , narrow corridors "cad to tiny rooms , dovoteil to the Indies n waiting of the visiting princesses. 1'horo wore only two dames d'lionneur from each country , but the king of Den mark would hardly have had room to entertain more Greek" and Uu&siuns , Knglish and Danes. Wandering about these corridor.s it is very ea y to inuigino oneself on a trans-Atlantic steamer. A IIOII11V OK 1I1K DANISH KINCi. At the lott of the staircase is the royal antechamber mid the private secretary's ollice. A'gallery leads to the king's apartments , consisting of antechamber , salon an.l study. Here the furniture is very simple , and nothing attracts thu at tention except a magnificent bear's skin , a gift of the c/.ar. The study has three windows opening on the garden , called Marinorhaven. From these windows'the view is more than beautiful. The wills of the study are literally covered with family photographs. A very large one of ttfu empress of Uiussia is placed on an armchair , as there is not nn inch of space loft on doors or walls. The taste of this Danish king for photographs is remark able. In their study are no less than tour of the queen , and of these one is life-sue. The study is the family room , perhaps because it is the largest in the castle , iin-J from tliis open the queen's apartments. These have a view on the park. The lirst salon is furnished in style Louis XV. ; the walls arc hung with red silk , bordered with gold ; between the two windows is an inlaid Florcntino nrmoiro , but what strikes one immediately on entering is the great number of photographs and flowers. In this room the entire royal family waits tin ; announcement of dinner , and hero they all assemble for the Mocha that grandmammagracofully pours and tliolit- Ue daughter of the ompresb of Itussin offers to aunts and uncles. The second salon is in yellow satin , and morn stately , morn forbidding than the first. The qncon's apartments are united with the rest of the castle by the "room of Fred erick IV. " The four rooms composing the "apartments of the Princess Care line" are on these reunions reserved for the princess of Wales , and in a dark corridor rider is a door over which is written , "Princess Louise , Victoria and Maud. ' . ' This nursery of the Knglish prince.-.s is simply furnished in coiniz. Another long corridor leads to thu dining-room , a museum of pictures and antiquities. The immense oaken tables are among the curiosities of Hie castle , but the grand master of the court , m spite of his skill , found himself unable to give all the children places. So during the festivi ties the family dined in the hall under the cupola. The .czar and empress of Russia had two rooms overlooking the park , one a bedroom , the other a salon furnished in pale blue silk. The dressing-room , which is like acloset , contains only a toilet table covered with gray cloth. The prince of Wales kept bachelor's hall as fnr from the family as possible. The princess is the favorite child ot her mother , and the empress of Russia is the father's darling. Alexandra and her mother pass hours each day in playing qiiets , but the princess complains eact year of the old piano , on which s > ho in-no ticed when a child. The queen always answers by this phrnso , "My child , i you knew how hard it is for us to make both ends moot you would understam why I do not buy a piano. " Cliristiai and Louise have only $260,000 n year to maintain their royal state , but the c/.ar each Christmas gives Queen Loniso $130,000. and thus she contrives to pa ; the debts of the household. THE QUERN'S cOMMENTi > Amn TUAITS. The queen is a woman who deserves admiration. Daughter of the landgrave of Hesse-Cassel and Princess Louise Charlotte , whoso father was Frederick hereditary prince of Denmark , Queer Louise has known the tips and downs o lifo better than any woman called to share a throne. All her children were born when she was duchess of Sleswig Ilolstoin-Sonderburg-Glncksburg , am much difficulty had she in giving then the education suitable for the future see know was to bo theirs. She is a talented water color artist , and ii the days of her poverty dreamed of sell ing her pictures in order to add to a vorj modest Income. Her sons und daughter were trained from a very early ago to visit the poor and afflicted , and to prcfo the society of a few tried friends to 1 the splendors of courts. Queen Louis looks about sixtv years old. Her hair i hardly gray , and although slightly doa sun always grasps the idea of the on with whom she converses. There is a ad contrast between the prince ot Vales' indifference tbwnrd his wife and he tenderness with which the czar sur- ounds the empress. Often when Alox- nder nnd Dagrnnr return from R drlvo , f she is a long time preparing to come down stairs , her Imperial husband takes icr in hnr arms , carries her to the salon and introduces her as "my wife , ray dear Ittlowlfe. " Ono day during the reunion the royal and imperial families made tholr yearly lilgrimago to the canlo of Elsinoro. 'our correspondent recently heard n > arty of Virginia school-girls , who wore ught seeing at the old castle , discussing lie question , "Did Hamlet moot the ghost of his faUior on one of the corner ewers or in the courtyard ! " Ono of hcso young girls recited "To bo or note o be" in a tone loud enough to displease ho ofllcor on guard , who , with his glass , liscovorn ships invisible to the naked oyo. Sonio Cook tourists wore in n neighboring wood , where their guide Iiowcd them the "authentic" tomb of iainlct , and If they were satisfied there can bo no pleasure in attempting to do- troy their Illusions. From the roof of the castle ono sees Jwcdi'ii , only a quarter of an hour dls- ant. The air is delightful , the sky of n nest beautiful blue , and ns twilight ad vances there may bo seen lights in the windows of Elsmborg , in Sweden , oppo site Elsinoro.

Norway correspondence of the San I'ranclsco Chronicle : The Norwegians are not a particularly well-favored race , and the majority have faded colorless skins and dull , tow-like hair. Yet their expressions are as frank and pleasant as heir manners are simple and candid. L'he peasant womans' dress is singularly pretty , nnd even the plainest cannot fail o look otherwise than plonsmg in the io.it , dark , plaited skirts , bright , rod , heart-shaped bodices and white chemis ettes and in caps which are simply mar vels of the knitting art. Although the most thrifty people imaginable , the Nor wegians are lavish in the matter of wasti ng. These snowy frills always look as f they had beun put on for the first t'unn. From Itcrgon wo s'ailed for the north cape. On the third day wo reached iYondjl'one , the fo-callcd "Pans of the North , " but as Wo had boon led to expect great things from Baedeker , wo were doomed to disappointment. Even the cathedral did not cpmo up to our ex- lectations , though an.oxquisitti . woik of ritorwaldson. A huge marble figure of our Savior , standing as if in benediction , lid much to compensate for shortcom ings. In the afternoon wo made our first experience in carriole .driving. Carrioles ire little gigs , constructed to seat ono person only , and , as springs are con spicuous by their absence , locomotion is a somewhat plamful pleasure under the circumstances. The .ponius arc sure footed boasts , and as intiilligont as New foundlands , their sagacity being mainly attributable to the fact that their masters Lroat thorn not only with the greatest kindness , but deal with them more as we lo our household pets. I have even scon a Norwegian peasant take his pony out of the carriole and uull it up hill himself , while the fortunate animal walked along at his good pleasure behind ! The next day wo passed the celebrated mountain of Torghatten , resembling a monster hat semi' ; 800 foot high floating on the waters , and pierced half way by an aperture. The view of the ocean with its myriads of rocks seen through thi& na > tnral telescope i.s indescribably beautiful. The character of the scenery changed as wo ncared the Arctic circle , and became more bright and homelike , the gentle slopes covered with wild flowers nnd ber ries , and the rising ground overgrown with scented pines. So oppressive was the Arctic warmth , that we were obliged to throw off our jackets on going iifhoro for an hour's ramble , A day or two later wo reached the Lofiule.n i. = les , and now the wildest and most beautiful scenery on our jour ney northward burst upon us. The islands , : i long chain of mountains , widen nave been liuuned to the skeleton of a veitobrato animal , stretched from horizon zen to horizon. Not a human habitation was in sight , and the devolution was only heightened by the myriads of shrieking -.oaguls blackening the rocks in angry crowds. The ocean beyond lay like a silver lake beneath a white sky. Turn ing eastward , the sunlight fell faintly on the rocky shores and on the loose red sail of a smack idly coming round a headland. A dim line of shadow lay in the wako of the boat , but otherwise the black hull and scarlet sail scorned to be cutting through a plain of molten silver. It Won t Make Bread.

Chicago Mail : General George A. For- sytli is at the Chicago club on n short furlough from his Ari zona post , after sovornl years' absence from Chicago. Not many people who were acquainted with the man would sus pect that "Sandy" Forsyth 'u quiet , al most retiring , demeanor belongs to ono of the famous soldiers of the army. Par ticularly is ho noted as an Indian lighter. In the old turbulent days they used to say on the frontier that Forsyth was ono of the few army men who could start after depredating savages and whip them without wasting time in military red tape. His best fight , and one ! of the most gal lant over scon on the plains , was at Ueechor's island , nearly twenty years ago. With fifty-one men , mostly scouts and frontiersmen , Forsyth encamped ono night on this little island , in the ( at the season ) dry fork of the Republican rivor. At daybreak the camp wag aroused by war whoops and shouts on every side. The lulls wcro covered with more than a thousand Indians , led by Roman Nyse , a celebrated chief. Hack of them were the squaws and children waiting to tfrmin- ate with horrible mutilation the slaugh ter of the vvhito men. The battle began. The Indians wcro armed with the moat approved rifles , and had plenty of am munition. They poured in volley afto.- volioy. By 9 o'clock all of Forsyth's horses wcro killed , and twenty three of his men were dead or wounded. The little command fired sparingly , but every shot of the frontiersmen told. At 10 o'clock 400 of the mounted Indians were drawn up fn A solid phalanx by Roman Nose nnd harangued by the medicine man. The others acted as crUllory , pouring a deadly tire into the scouts which compelled each man to shrink be hind the breastworks they had Improvised ot dead animals. This continued halt an hour nnd then to the sound of the bugle the charge was made. The savngo host , n mngnlllccnt sight , thundcreu down tipon the gallant little band. When tifty feet away the scouts sprang to their feet and their rilles cracked. Thu charge fal tered under the withering fire , hesitated nnd broke , almost nt ami's length from Forsyth nnd his men , leaving a score of savages and Roman Nose nnd Iho medi cine man dead on Iho Held. "Can Ihoy do any boiler lhan thatt" asked "Sandy"ot Grover , his chief scout. "i have been on the plains thirty ycnrs , general , " tholHtleri.nswcrcd. "and never saw such n charge. They can't do but ter. " "Tnon we'll lick them yet , " said For- sylh.The The savages made another attempt to dislodge the defenders and were again repulsed. Night closed the fight , leaving Forsyth with nearly half his command cither dead or disabled , his surgeon dead , himself wounded in both legs and in Iho head , provisions exhausted aud the near est help 100 miles away. "Sandy" grasped the favorable points of the situ ation. He caused Iho unwounded lo dig six feet for water , strengthen their in- tronchracnts by throwing up earth , and prepared for a faininu by cutting steaks from the dead animals. No words were needed to cheer the men. They were all lighters. One , alad of eighteenhad fought all day with an arrow sticking in his fore head. Another man had his eye knocked out by n bullet , but said nothing till night. Two scouts were selected to make the desperate attempt to pierce the Indian line and roach Fort Wallace. The } * procured moccasins from the feet of slam savages. They walked a mile backward lo give the Indians the impres sion the tracks were those of their own men approaching the island. The fol lowing day the Indians tired scarcely n shot. That night two more men from the besieged tried to get through lo Iho fort , but wcro driven back. The next day the atlack was renewed. The savages Irled Iho old Hag of truce artifice. By exposing Ihemselvcs they endeavored to draw the lire of the scouts , thus exhaust ing the lattor's ammunition. Not until the fourth day did the redskins begin to withdraw , fairly beaten , though the odds in their favor were seventeen to one. Two days later the cavalry cuidon of re-enforcements troin Fort Wallace ap peared over the horizon nnd "Sandy"and his men wcro relieved.

ARMOUR AND THE RANCHMEN. What the Iinttcr Kvpect to Make By Their New Arrangement ? Chicago Tribune : Mention was made some time ago of the arrangement be tween a number of western ranchmen and Mr. Armour , by which the latter waste to slaughter and market the cattle for $3 per hoad. One of the cattlemen speak ing of this arrangement gave the follow ing ligurus as illustrative of the benefit to the producers : SAI.K ON TIII2 OPII.V MAIIICKT. 1,000 pound steer , : tcunts per pound..330.00 Average coit of lrehht. ; jardaue , nay , ami commission charges 0.00 Net return $24.00 rilOCKIIDS TllltOt'OlI TIIK POOL.

These wjll all go to Armour , and the number will also bo very greatly increased , lo such an extent that Mr. Armour will feel the ne cessity of providing largo packing estab lishments at different points in the coun try. Next year it is oxucclcd that the en- lire range and feeding country from .Iho north lo Iho south will be the pool ; when that is accomplished the pool will have atlainod ils object lo , so far as Iho pro * ducers are concernedwipe oul all market lines anil make the country practically ono market. Said one of the cattlemen recently : "The object is not and lias not been to reduce the price to Iho consumer. They nro buying beef cheap enough now , and Ihc only Iroublo has been Iho lee great ( inference between what they were pay ing and what wo are receiving.
