The Roosevelt-Washington incident still sends back a few echoes, but they are getting quite faint, and, we presume, they will shortly cease altogether. The peculiar prejudice which the Southerners have against what they call "social equality" is something very hard to understand, but is the most senseless and inconsistent thing imaginable. We recall a little incident which was related in our hearing once by Rev. Dr. C. M. Shutter, of Minneapolis, in an address bearing upon the "vexed question." He told of a conversation with a Southerner upon "social equality," and said Southern, said he, had a "black mammy" that he loved very much, and he never went near where she resided without calling to see her. And he would be willing to do anything he could for her, but he "could'never think of sitting at table and eating with her." So with such feelings as these being uppermost sters, it is not surprising that they in the breasts of these inhuman men were indignant at the President's actions. We do not know what they would say if they knew that this was not an incident invitation, but that the President actually sent a special messenger to hunt Mr. Washington PETER H. HARRIS and extend the invitation to dine with him at the White House. Some people have found fault with Mr. Washington for accepting the President's invitation, but we would like to know how he could have refused to do so. We are as certain as we are that we are living that no one who condemns Mr. Washington for accepting the President's invitation would have refused, but on the contrary would have been "tickled almost to death" to have received such an honor, and would have almost broken his neck getting there. commit suicide is larger than that of male suicides of any other country, suicide by German women is comparatively rare and gets rarer each year. The suicides of colored people have It seems that even "the Hub." Boston, is afflicted with the damnable color prejudice so deeply that a barber refused to shave an Afro-American divinity student on account of his color. Thomas S. Bruce, a third year man in the Harvard divinity school, had Henry Laflamme, the Harvard Square barber, arrested for refusing to shave him. Bruce testified that he went into the barber shop about two weeks ago and asked the defendant's brother to shave him. The latter answered that they only treated special customers and that he (Bruce) could get accommodated "across the street." Bruce asked about the sign in front of the shop, and the barber replied that thataf was none of his (Bruce)'s business. Bruce had left after waiting ten minutes, although there were two chairs vacant and the man he had originally spoken to was idle. The judge said that the defendant could keep objectionable people out of his shop, but not for reasons of race and color. La Flamme paid the fine. STATISTICS OF SUICIDES. Fewer Among Germans Than Formerly, More Among Nergess. Two peculiarities are shown in the recently published figures of suicides in American cities—the recession of natives of Germany from the head of the list which they long held, and an increase in the number of suicides among colored people. In the last published report on the subject in this city, all boroughs, it was seen for the first time that there were more suicides than there were deaths by those of Germany, though the disparity was very small. The change is explained in part by the fact that while the number of German men who PERHAPS. Kind Lady—Did you ever have hydrophobia? Tramp—No, but several dogs that bit me did. Kind Lady—Before or after? THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER commit suicide is larger than that of male suicides of any other country, suicide by German women is comparatively small. The suicides of colored people have CHICAGO ST. PAUL: THE FAST TRAIN SERVICE CHICAGO ST. PAUL RELEASE been more conspicuously observed in the large cities of the south than in northern cities, where the colored population is small and is not increasing, and the explanation of it is found in a single phrase, city life. Colored residents of farms or small towns seldom commit or attempt suicide; it is 'm the large cities, where the struggle for existence is under conditions most unfavorable to colored men, that a few of them overcome their repugnance to HAPS. ST. PAUL: THIS WILL BRING HER CONSIDERABLY CLOSER such an act of violence. In proportion to the total population, suicides among Englishmen residing in the United States are very much more frequent than among residents of Irish birth. Among male natives of France and Switzerland in the United States the rate of suicides is high; among women from France or Switzerland there is practically none at all. In respect to the total number of suicides compared with the population, Chicago and San Francisco rank highest among American cities. Baltimore and Richmond are low on the list. In New York city the ratio of suicides is higher in Queens than in The Bronx—New York Sun. FAST TRAIN SERVICE IS WILL BRING HER CONSIDER Thomas Y. Crowell & Co., of New York City, have prepared an edition of what author Dumas, and have put it forward in hand-style, in a new translation, with new illustrations, and with additional material features. The firm has been at work on the edition for several years. George W. Cable's "The Cavalier" went on to become a popular book which means a good deal; for his publishers had prepared for a big demand at the bookstore, many stories that it is said to be occasioning surprise among many who thought they needed it. Mr. Cable wrote: All who employed "We" to be Happy Though Married by the Rev. J. E. Hardy will want "Concerning Marriage" by the Rev. J. E. Hardy. The A. J. Wesley Company. The author gives much advice about that state of affairs, and does those who deep purgatory. "It locally contains other Heaven or hell; there is no third place in it." — Practical Study of the Soul," by Mr. Cable, published monthly by Dodd, Mead & Co.

Now, therefore, in view of this fact, and pursuant to a well-established custom, I, Samuel R. Van Sant, governor of Minnesota, would request that said day be observed throughout the state as Thanksgiving. The year about to close has been one of the greatest prosperity to the state and nation; especially in our commonwealth have we reason to rejoice. The products of our fields, forests and mines have enriched our people. Labor in town, city and country has been well employed and generously rewarded. Heaven has indeed pleased people. I would earnestly recommend that our people abstain on that day from their usual avocations and assemble in their customary places of worship and then and there raise their voice in praise to Almighty God, in unfolded blessings, and invoke His continued guidance in the years to come. From your abundance give to those who have been unfortunate and in need of charity, that the day may be one of rejoicing and thanksgiving to all our people. While still in the midst of the great gloom occasioned by the untimely death of our beloved friend, let us be comforted and resigned by the sacred words, "It is God’s ways, not ours," and thank Divine Providence for the influence of his noble and useful life. — S.

Clyde Fitch's beautiful play "Barbara Friethie" will be presented at the Grand Opera House next week commencing with a performance next Sunday evening at 8:15. This great play will be presented with the same exactness as to scenic detail, costumes and set design, its production at the Criterion Theatre Academy of Music, New York City. The play tells simply and tenderly, with much dramatic ingenuity, a love story with a tragic ending, which does not depress the spectator's mind by the dramatic effect of its exhibition of heroism and devotion. Such is the effects of poetical tragedy, properly acted, and this play while it is written in prose and not in the form of poetic tragedy, sounds the genuine notes in stronger form. But as such, itself mingled with its tragedy. The play is written fluently, eloquently and some of its dialogue, like the love scenes on the stoop of the old-fashioned Southern dwelling, has not been passed, a contemporary drama. The theatre and the opera play have noble proportions. The setting cannot be surpassed. The quaint street with its low buildings, is one of the best scenic pictures ever displayed. The dresses of the crinoline designed and made by Dazin, show the ladies to really pretty effect. While Whitier's famous poem suggested to Mr. Fitch not only the title, but also the closing incident of the story, he was Barbara a young Southern girl in love with a Union officer. He is mortally wounded and dies in her home just as the Confederates come marching up the hill. He is maddened by his death she takes from his breast the flag that has stained his blood, and waves it defiantly over his balcony. He is the shot that kills her is she sweetheart, her the sweetheart, JACK Negley, whose love for her has driven insane. He is ordered shot by his military father.

Lord Salisbury is said by those who know to be at once a younger and an older man, and his office. He is younger in that release from the absorbing cares and daily THE MAN IN THE HAT Ibors of that post has restored to him a certain gaiety of spirit. He is older in that he seems unable and unwilling to occupy himself seriously with that general control and supervision of affairs for which he now has leisure. As some one put it the other day, he was not too old for foreign minister, but at his time of life he is not young enough to become prime minister. Of the prime minister's curious detachment from current affairs, and of his occasional lapses into forgetfulness many stories are being told. One relates to public affairs and to a public occasion. Everyone remembers the extraordinary attack which he made last in the House of Lords upon the treasury, and his subsequent retraction. It is well known that the retraction was caused by the fact that Sir Francis Mowatt very naturally took the attack as a personal matter, and sent in his resignation accordingly. The prime minister, it is said, was never invited in his position had no desire to personal attack upon anybody, he could, and did, truthfully say that least of all had he any intention to make any reflection upon Sir Francis Wowatt. What he thought—so the story runs—was that the permanent head of the treasury was still Sir Reginald Webb. That he had for some years been sitting opposite to that great civil servant as Lord Webb, in the House of Lords, was news to the prime minister—London Chronicle. BEHOLDEN TO THE MEN. Most Devices for Women's Wear Are Women of the Warrior Sex. It is source of our warrior sex. It is source of our warrior sex to many of the fair ones that a large majority of the recent inventions designed to increase the comfort or improve the gracefulness of women's attire are the products of masculine genius. Devices for hitching the skirt to the shirtwaist, for dressing the shirtwaist neck, for finishing the shirtwaist at the waist, for finishing the shirtwaist cuffs, for making the shirtwaist look long-waisted or short-waisted or round-waisted or flat-waisted or nowaisted—how busy the mind of man must be all winter long in order to spring each spring upon a defenseless feminine public all these and kindled schemes for shirtwaist reformation: the man pays the least attention to it? Shirtwaists may come and shirtwaists may go, but not one woman in a thousand adorns herself or makes use of the many little schemes man so thoughtfully devises in their and her behalf. Let the men go on inventing more frivolous things—from more frivolous things—for who can deny that the shirtwaist is a serious subject indeed? Likewise, it gives variety to the crop of street car advertisements. Does the fact that woman doesn't feel called upon to join the noble army of inventors for the man she is lacking in inventive utility that she is quite satisfied with her shirtwaists as they are?—Chicago Chronicle.

Committee, Jas. W. Camp, Mrs. J. P. Stewart, Mrs. M. V. Deathhare, William Randolph Smith, Charles Webb, J. H. Porter, R. Shaw, B. F. Mosley, B. L. Anderson A HUMANE JUDGE "I will take all the responsibility in this case, and will not separate this mother from her infant daughter. I will not send her to the penitentiary," she said. "I will not go to Saturday, in the case of Mrs. Lillian Hudgins, the Afro-American woman convicted by a jury for manslaughter for killing a Jew peddler some time ago." The woman has a daughter a year ago, who has been her companion in the county jail since her arrest several months ago. At the penitentiary the child would not be received. The rules are strict, and the police phy prevent this. A sentence on the verdict would therefore mean the separation of the child from its mother. Judge Dunne believed that the laws of humanity are above the Illinois statute. He would not release the woman. He would not release the woman however, neither would he change her sentence to a term in the county jail. He simply decided to continue the case. He would not court, and, if by that time some other court, with the problem is not discovered, another continuance will be taken, until the court will believe he is justified in releasing the woman, or the child will be released, enough to be taken from her mother. "We have no recommendation to make in the matter," Mr. Newcomer, the state's attorney's office, told the judge. He tuned almost daily for weeks. Under the evidence, which showed that the woman killed Stern, an old peddler, we cannot recommend a change of law. We will not make any recommendation. Then the court announced that he would assume all responsibility, and ordered a continuance in the case. Mrs. Schultz, the court made his announcement, and her stolid face lighted up with pleasure. When she returned to the jail, she raced to the child and hugged in an anecdote of her congratulations from the other women prisoners were showered upon the mother and child, for the woman in well liked by the girl, was in the apothecary of its color, the little one has been a favorite in the woman's wards. **Mother** Born to Mrs. John Nettles, 2817 State street, a daughter, Dr. A.
