The Asounding Career of Princess Slettinhausen On the Day of Her Wedding with a Powerful Noble She Eloped with a Circus Rider and a Few Days Ago Was Buried in a Pauper's Grave. LONDON, Sept. Or all the romances made with your year have nothing to equal in vivid intensity and true story of the Countess Maria Baldwin, unsympathetic little dispaton from her curt, unsympathetic chapter to it a few days ago, but left the rest of the story untold. Through a friend in the town with all its details verified, and with photographs that lend additional interest to her, the Baroness Maria Baldwin, the heroine of romance of real life, belonged to an ancient family on the Bavarian nobility, and, as an only daughter, was from her earliest childhood accustomed to have her own care and management by doting parents. Her infancy and girth were spent principally at the old feudal castle and her institution on the borders of Bavaria and Bohemia, which had teen the seat of the Baldwin family for three centuries. At the age of 18, when she was introduced into the society of the Bavarian capital at Munich, she was tall and strikingly fair, with the demure manners of a girl who has been born and bred in a quiet country nook. She was the acknowledged beauty of the season, and wherever she appeared at the balls and partles given in high society she was surrounded by an admiring throng of young officers in the dazzling uniforms of the smarter, more segmented and noblemen whose rent role was not in them the choclet "partis" of the country. The Baroness showed no signs of being spoiled by the social honors showered on her, and her unassuming manners and extreme modesty gained her the respect as well as the admiration of the gay circles in which she moved. But though there were so many sultors for her hand, her parents were in no hurry to see her matrimonially settled. Her Strange Infatuation. It was about three years ago, just a year after her entry into society, that the baroness's parents took her to a circus performance, where she saw a remarkably daring rider named Zigorn and fell in love with him at first sight, fascinated partly by his undeniable grace and shapeliness, partly by his physical strength and agility and the ability to be a reckless courage with which he was though performances involved a grave risk of life or limb at every movement made. He was rather a handsome fellow, but coarse looking and dissipated. Strange as it may seem, the girl of high birth, good breeding and exceptional refinement, went to the club for a long time, and was to write the circus rider, telling him of her admiration for him and her desire to make the acquaintance of such a brave man. Zigora, though used to the admiration of women, was a man of great strength and strength in the receipt of a lribe letter couched in these enthusiastic terms from a baroness, and he responded eagerly to her advances. A maid in the employ of the baroness and in the service of the baronetcy, and a man of great strength and strength in the place of between, and soon a meeting was arranged between the lovelorn aristocrat and the circus rider, who calculated that blackmall or some kind of profit could be made out of the affair, apart from the place of the meeting. The baroness, who had never been particularly devout, now became a regular attendant at a Roman Catholic church at some distance from her father's residence at the baroness, and was a man of great strength and strength in all to go through her devotions because of the unusual stillness and solemnity that prevailed there. In this church she met Zigora day after day and allowed him to make love to her in a quiet corner of the church, and, while her maid kept watch in the vicinity. Zigora's lack of breeding, his coarse manners, familiar way of speaking, and, for persons of normal judgment, absent lately repulsive chance, and the infatuated baroness of her own, were more and more deeply in love with the fellow each time she met him. After these, a clandestine meeting had been going on, and a long night of love had been going on, the baroness to visit him in Zis suave, a baronetcy. It was at this stage of the affair that the lady's mind, alarmed by the girl's infantation for the circus rider to be conveyed out how far things had gone. The horrified parents at the circus supervised and determined to marry her as soon as possible. The strictest suspicion of circus rider leaked out and destroyed her reputation in society. The most serious suitors for the Haroness Maria's hand was Count Settec, and great wealth, who was the owner of over a million particularly young or good looking, but these were minor considerations for the girl. Their attempt to bring about a match between the two was not successful, the girl was obstructed, and the parents were forced to resort to all sorts of indulgence. The girl was tried, and then harshness, and once she turned in solitary contempt where she saw nobody and spoke to no one for The contest between parents and child went on for a month, by which time the girl's consent to a marriage with Count Stettmann was achieved. She was not at all aware there hurriedly pushed forward. After her apparent submission the baroness was not supervised so closely, and she found means to communicate with Zigora again, her in-line friend, and the present wife, who had been in the press through on account of her love for him. Flight, however, was impossible, and so the wedding day arrived and the marriage ceremony was gone through in the same way as it had been. At noon the service was over, the wedding breakfast had been eaten and the bride and bridegroom were on their way to spend the same time at the same time. The pre- or post-flight from Munich, where they arrived early in the afternoon, Her Flight. As few hours later the countess of Salz a day's standing in the� her husband's house and took the train back to Mc nich. Here she went straight to Zigora's apartment, told him that she had run away from her husband and invited him to take her over the frontier into Austria. Zigora, seeing that she had over $3,000 with her, and scenting chances of being a man, was not so much as afraid of being band or relatives of the bride, readily consented, and early the next morning the guilty pair left Munich for Budapest, which was Zigora's birthplace. The wife of Zigora had been his wife's parents of the facts of the case, and neither he nor they ever attempted to ascertain what had become of her. She was dead for them, and a month or two had been in the house. She was not at all aware of force from her on the formal ground of As long as the countess's money lasted, Zigora and she lived together. In Budapest and spent it recklessly. They occupied magnificent apartments at one of the finest hotels, and enjoyed the best of everything. Zigora, too, ran through large ums in playing games of cards which he did not in the least understand, and engaging in speculations of which he was utterly ignorant. The result was that in two months' time there was not a penny left, and the couple were forced to leave their rooms at the fashionable hotel. They took a room in one of the cheapest parts of the city. The countess fully expected that Zigora, who could easily earn a hundred dollars a week in his profession, would at least provide for her maintenance. She was, however, soon enlightened as to the futility of this hope. Zigora was already tired of her, and the moment her money was gone she ceased to have any value for him. The day after they removed from the hotel to the humble lodging he accepted a touring engagement and deserted her. She was utterly destitute, being unable even to pay the rent of the room for two days so that ZIGORA, THE CIRCUS RIDER. she was obliged to leave her personal belongings in pawn with the landlady. Retribution. Now began a terrible struggle to earn the barest necessities of life, in the course of which the highly born noblewoman learnt to know the seamiest sides of civilization in a great city. First she obtained employment as a domestic servant in a poor tradesman's house, but being wholly incapable of doing the work the ZIGORA, THU quired of her, she was speedily dismissed, she suffered the worst gangs of hunger and rarely had shelter over her head at night. The Countess was given custody, she had to mix mortar and to carry it up a steep hill where it was required by the bricklayers, and again she was thrown out of her marriage to Count Stethinashn her baby and verses, she became a street beggar, and she worked, for she obtained enough to enable her to eat and drink and hire a lodging. Not quite seven months after her marriage to Count Stethinashn her baby found it necessary to enter the public school, she died a few hours after birth, and the fortunate mother was discharged from her kindergarten, and she died in the corner of the lower end of her kind. She resumed her activity as a street beggar, and was to be seen day after day, and she was in year 4, at the corner of the lower end of her kind. The hardships through which she had gone, and the hunger and cold from her health of the delicately nurtured lady and soon galloping consumption was over. After having a fainting on the street and soon galloping in the water part of August, she was conceived in a poor house of the Seventh district in Bunya Weater. Three days later she died and uncared for, without the kindness of her mother to soothe her last moments on earth. The day before she died she received she was from the parish priest, and confessed to him that she was Stettinhaunen, asking him to inform her of her death if they were still alive. Pfeiffer sewn in the lining of her clothing proved her identity beyond doubt. She received a pauser's funeral, and no one followed the body to the pauser's grave. BIG bay horse with the softest of who quivering testified to the delicate nervous organization control of the clear spring air to exhale it in a place as though "thanking the Lord for a life so good." Eyes that looked at you so squarely and honestly that you began to wonder if your conscience was as clear as their limpid depths; and such dainty pointed ears that you marveled at their small size but wondrous ability to catch the faintest sound. There was nothing small about Laddle in body or nature, excepting his ears and hoofs. We had bought him for a carriage horse, and the person from whom we got him assured me that he would prove "a first-class family horse, sound as a dollar, and the best disposition ever known." Still, we had heard similar assurances before, and experience had taught us that horse flesh needed salting. Laddle was driven into our grounds one beautiful spring morning for my final decision regarding the purchase, and as he came prancing and curveting up the driveway I instantly fell in love with him. Lassie (our pet name for our four-year-old daughter) and I were on the plaza, and hastened down to welcome the new arrival as the man who him in charge drove up to the carriage block and stepping from the survey, stood beside it. Lassie ran ahead of me, and, planting herself squarely, in front of the big animal, stood with her sturdy legs far apart, her arms clasped behind her, and her face cocked knowingly upon one side, critic. Surveying him as he towered above her in all the grandeur of his fifteen hands two inches. How like satin his beautiful blood-bay coat shone in the sunshine, and how hard he tried to reach down to the little child standing so near him! But fashion, that inexorable dame, had put a tight check upon him and blinders at his eyes, and although he turned his head from side to side and jerked it up and down in his endeavor, he was still in the air, and the beautiful arobed neck was turned to one side that the head was brought any nearer the object he strove to reach. Between big horse and little mald there was instantly established a mental telegraph, and then happened something which instantly settled Laddie's fate. "That horrid old check-rein! You can't weash me, can't you? But I'll come where I can weash you," cried the child, and ere a word of remonstrance could be uttered she had run towards the horse and clamped both little arms tightly about one Sender front leg, and stood pressing her face close to it. We stood breathless with astonishment, fearing to move or speak lest the great ```markdown ``` THE APPEAL. COUNT STETTINHAUSEN'S CASTLE OF BRUNHENBURG.

"Step back, darling!" she said quietly to me, "I don't know what to do so that you can stroke his face"—for any reason, but the aaddie had been displeased forever. I sat sloughed that she had been in a Frightfully frightened room and the man and I drew a breath of gas. E. CIRCUS RIDER COUNT STETT THE HOME OF T A second later I had unhooked that invention of the evil one—the check-rein. It was a simple device: one would stretch one's arms after having kept them or hour in a strainer, and then the other would come some head came down to the little arms. The other head came down to the Ladder and four-year-old. Ladder stood "making love" to each other. On one side he felt fearlessness; on the other fearlessness and love. After a thorough inspection I said to the man: "I am satisfied with all the but head removal and I wish the blinders and check remove. Oh, but ye couldn't life him widowly without him, that would frighten the life out of him to go without him. I did not we safe at all." Patrick was a true trustee and having long been in employ, of a man who had been a blinder and a high check, was convinced that he tried the only way. "Let us try him without his misbehaves. I will have only myself." Side straps were soon brought from our stable and substituted for those in the headstall, and the check entirely discarded. I shall never forget how much hand-made, and looked, for his neck had a beautiful arch, and was so pretty as beautiful eyes, set so widely apart, seemed to see before, behind and on all sides of him, as dear Mother Nature intended they should be. Wait on the lawn for me, darling, until I have tried Laddie, and I am as good horse you shall go for a diver, said, as I took my seat in the surrey, and the man seated himself beside me, doubtless with the double object of learning, and of a "whip." I should prove and how Lady Laddie was, and what himself under the new order of things. Lassie skipped off to her nurse, who was in the gutter, for her, and I gathered up the relays for her, and I gathered up the relays turned his head as to start. The horse turned his head as to start, and I took at me, and as I said kindly, "It's all right, old fellow, come along," he gave it a toss and set off at a brisk pace, and I had a little one, whose name before, and to find Laddie's equal. An infant's hand could guide him, and while full of life and action he was gentle as a kitten. We were about about the town, and although we met many, we had no direct contact, such as trolley cars, railway trains, and calculated to rouse doubts in any young horse, and even though Patrick mentally suggested my wisdom in dispensing with the check, my wisdom and care behaved like a old stager, and came home to the check. "I am the one whom the model of good behavior, this was the beginning of our fondness," said Lady Laddie, with a slightly increased with each of us, although eight have elapsed since that day. Never again did he wear either blinders or a cloak with a long tail and which caused us to be profoundly thankful that we were driven into trouble them. Many a long, delightful drive did we take along. Delightful drive could drive him as easily as he could. He knew the instant her small hands took the reins, and the change which at once manifested itself to gait and expression seemed to say as plainly as words could have done: "Little missie is driving me now, and it behoves such a great strong creature as I am to show all that is best and gentlest in because she is ruling by love alone." As the years slipped by, Laddie became almost human in his fondness for us, and his natural intelligence developed beyond belief. He seemed to understand every word we said to him, and would follow us like a dog. When Laddie was nine years old she drove him anywhere, and frequently went to bring us over the mountain road to bring us to the mountain road to bring us to the small miles from our home. One afternoon she started about 2 o'clock, and had not been absent half an hour when ominous "thunder heads" predicted a coming storm, which in a little while was raging furiously. Conscient that Lassie would remain at the time until the storm passed over, we felt little concern for her; but, when the weather, instead of being settled down to a dismal rain, we began to feel uneasy even though we realized that she was an exceptionally level-headed little body who would take no chances. Six o'clock came, and then 7. but that miserable downpour still continued. It was late in the summer, and the evenings were growing short, so that scarcely any daylight remained after 7 o'clock; and when no Laddle or Lassie appeared by that hour, we began to feel considerable alarm and sent Edward, our man, in quest of them. We had no other horse, so he was obliged to walk. He had gone nearly two miles, and was just beginning to climb up the steep mountain road where the thick foliage made it as dark as midnight when he heard in the distance the slow, cautious tread of a horse, taking a few steps at a time; then halting; then taking a few more steps. A sharp bend in the road winding zigzag down the mountain would have hidden the approaching vehicle had not the darkness effectively done so, and the man had ample time to marvel at such a remarkable manner of procedure. Hardly conscious why he did so, he called out: "Who's coming there?" and was instantly answered by a shrill neigh and a joyful cry. Springing forward he soon came upon Laddle and Lassle, and in the light of his lantern beheld a sight which nearly took his breath away. Creeping cautiously down the steep dark road with his nose so close to the ground as literally to smell his way, and with his big eyes open wide to see all that could be seen in the gloaming, with his left breaching strap dangling about his hind legs, and the carriage bumping against his Kneeling in the bottom of the phiaton, she looked up at the dashboard, was Lassie, holding the reins and talking to the intelligent t creature, "It took Edward and a stunton to spring up and get to the door." She pressed it: "Fatha; there was no telling which was gladdest to meet me—the big dog. When they were safe at home Lassie had reached Farner Hammann's just before every soul absent. She drove under the shed to wait for the storm to pass." TINHAUSEN'S CASTLE OF BRUNHENE THE COUNTESS DESERTED FOR HER fell and night drew near, the child hardly knew what to do and instinctively sought home. All went well till she reached the wood road leading down the mountain, when, without a second's warning, the hook which held the breeching strap to the shaft pulled out and the strap dropped. The carriage plunged forward as far as the tug straps would let it, and these, soon slipping backward, let the whiffetees come squarely upon Laddle's humours. After one frightful run, he seemed to realise what happened, and proved what it was for a horse to be able to see both behind and before him. After looking behind him for a moment, as though studying the situation and deciding upon the next move, he started slowly down the hill, taking a few steps and stopping, a few more and another pause, as though to assure the frightened child that she need fear nothing so long as she trusted to him. He had traveled more than half the journey with the phaeton bumping along behind him at every step, before Edward met him, and he doubtless would have brought his charge safely home. We found the assis why she had not gotten out to try to fix the breeching, for she knew how as well as we did, but she said that it was so dark, rainy and slippery on the mountain road that she had felt more faith in Laddie's ability to care for her than in her own. And now I ask my readers if this is not the use of a check-rein and blinders? the use of a check-rein and blinders? the cause of the trouble behind him, and had not been seen before. He was so close to the ground as he wished, who can guess what ignorance he felt, a creature to do? But the head was free to turn and reach in any direction, and he was about to talk about him, as dear Mother Nature meant this perfectly natural condition the affection he bore the little child who had been born to him. He derided that he promptly assumed t.i. re-confidence in his position. I firmly believe that more than half the accidents we hear of are caused by this horrible when the inflection of a cheek (coffees word) of placing blinders upon horses, and when the inflection of a natural position — in added, it is no wonder of torture worthy the dark ages. Mr. Noel, in the August 1000, number of books, wrote that he did not go further upon this subject of blinders, and my only regret is that he did not know about it. Briefly no one possesses even kind of common sense can fall to appreciate the discomfort those two pieces of If any two-legged animal doubts it let him attempt to carry a heavey parcel, not at what he will pull all of it or of stairs while holding his head in back in a strained position.

Then let him try to see what he can do it. What, then, must it be to the poor horse struggling up a steep hill and drawing a line? He does not need to climb a church steeple or some other perpendicular objection; he surely sees more natural to take an upward journey when his head is strained upward and his eyes are held at an angle that can see nothing which is not above him. It is to me, incomprehensible that any one should be so shortsighted as to place upon a horse a harness which causes the horse to be semi-severe, to say nothing of exquisite torture, which is the only way to get the horse to be precisely what it amounts to. I am not speaking of absurd fashions—as curb chains, senseless bits, high checks and a sort of one-time-to-one-time appliance—I have often seen horse-tearing, most costly harness, but miserable because it was ill-adjusted. Often the blinders are held so close and the eyes as to make it utterly impossible for the horse to get it. It is going, and many a sharp lash where it is celye for an awkward step caused entirely by its half-blinded condition. But the horses which suffer most are not always the one who are the working class, whose driving is often from the animal as or ignorance, often regard the animal as a mere machine, which must perform all the work possible for as little care as can be done. The horse's harness worn by these horses is often the harness, or by these, hardened, hardened condition, caused by a thorough soaking upon the previous day, and very often a painful sore is the result of a pain in the horse. Often the of all it is the blinders which are bent out of shape by a wetting. While still soaked, the headstail is carefully hung upon a peg, and the blinders are again the wall. A corner is slightly below the headstail, and the headstail is slightly between them, and the driver in the hurry of harnessing the driver in the hurry of harnessing the next morning. A little later the poor horse finds it out, and as the day of the horse's mbersy becomes complete, I wish to cite the mbersy. I am not exaggerated. I have ever witnessed of this miserable condition, witnessed of this miserable condition, witnessed of this miserable condition. has become an unconscious habit with the tails of a horse's harness, and it is quite escapes me. When anything wrong escapes me, when anything wrong escapes me along the streets of the crowded city I was strap or buckle in the which change of a hole or two meant, oh, so much. On the street through Chambers street, and at the disturbance through Chambers block, noticed a horse tossing his head across the disturbed manner. When I reached him, the horse was blocking the corner of his disturbance the corner of the blinder, bend and bark as a stone, was resting directly in the corner of the blinder, and barked and poured from it, the lid was swollen to twice its natural size, and the eyeball it touched could convey some idea of the gratitude I felt that torturing blindness from it. When I lifted that torturing blindness from it. No driver was anywhere to be seen, and the animal had been standing there, lacking a higher authority.

Court Stenographers They Become Good Judges of the Veracity of Witnesses. "Any shorthand man who has been doing court reporting for a long time can tell almost infallibly by his sense of hearing whether a prisoner or a witness is telling the truth of lying," said a Washington court stenographer, who has grown gray in making and transcribing pothooks in civil and criminal cases. "It comes from experience, combined with the abnormal development of hearing, which all first-rate court and parliamentary stencographers possess." "You know, how, abnormally the reopened, particularly their sense of hearing. Well, it's the same way with the hammered away at that sort of work or many years.

So frecuently in court he feels that the last-fifteen years that I have come indistinguishable false tremolo is absent from the tone of a prisoner's or a wifefriend.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.—Every father, if he is worthy of the trust God or Nature has imposed upon him, is solicitous of the welfare of his son. He watches the babe crawling on the carpet, he sees him become a toddling youngster, he sees him become a toddler. As the child advances from stage to stage it begins to unfold its character. Sometimes the traits recall characteristic family traits; sometimes they are new, novel, startling, so that the father asks: "I wonder where he got that from?" And then the father wonders how the characteristics the child reveals will operate upon it when years shall have passed and the boy has become the man. Some fathers are ambitious for their sons. In the old countries in old days, in fact, in the old countries where the toe of these feverish times is not much felt, the father saw in his son his successor; and in his daily occupation he always strove to so build his work that his son would find a place made for him. In his time it is not so. Here such would be a very exceptional. The ordinary father anxiously hopes that his son will develop traits which will enable him to rank higher in the various calling of life. It makes life a difference whether the father is a day longer or a banker, the usual rule is that the son shall enter a different walk of life. Too often, the father endeavors to force his son to pursue a calling or profession for which he has no experience or story of trying to fit the square, peg in a round hole. The father's hope and capacity of learning is limited by capacity. Of course, this is natural; but experience teaches that much may be unwise to select the boy's vocation for him. In some rare instances the trend of the boy's vocation is unwise to select the marked, decided. In most cases a boy does not know what for he is best. But while the parent may not know what he knows, he does know from the light of his own experience that there are traits and habits and experiences that he should not know what the boy should do, but he does know what the boy should not know. Every man has a clear experience of what the defects of his own, of himself, to certain clear, clear experiences, to do more for the success of his son by showing the lad what has injured other people. He has a profession for which he must be a man. A lack needs the benefit of his father's experience and counsel not in lessons, but in lessons. He should be in his son not only tedium mental preoccupation, but the knowledge that it takes a person to be honest, honesty, truthfulness, punctuality, order, readiness should be done much. Honesty, truthfulness, punctuality, order, readiness should be shown that he needs the proper rest and the proper care of his health to play. He should be taught method, application, self-control. A boy should be taught to all that a father can do is to train the boy in the days of his youth, and when he is old enough, he should be trained. No father can make a boy achieve success, but every father can, and what one deserves in this world he pretty nearly secures. BIG COFFINS FOR CHINESE No Caskets of Ordinary Size at Cephalal Funerals.

One night last week a well-educated and applied at one of the downtown police was hungry, not having anything to eat for twenty-four hours, and the police took care of him after hearing his story. The young Southerner had come to New York on week 11, and the men all of his money, he had written home to his folks, well-to-do people, for more money. They went him to money order for $100. The young was having a lot of money, he pocket when he applied to the police for a night's lodging. He had tried in-준ly all the tax to get the money, order that he would positively have to be identified. He didn't know a soul in New York and there's was a time for he's able to be identified. He had a pocket full of letters showing who he was a pocket full of letters showing, but that didn't make it difference. He couldn't get his hundred, nor any fraction thereof. So he had to walk the streets, hunts, all day, with a piece of paper worth $100 in his pocket, and when night fell he had no means of getting under cover without applying to a police station. The police had to go to the young man's money order cashed on the next day, but not without a good deal of trouble and re-tape. "You've got-to-be-identified" ultimatum of the money order clerk in New York is a good deal of a positive notice just what that system should prevail over the world not a puzler.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1902. A most horrible state of deprivacy was developed in the case of Ethel girls, and William Roberts, an Afro-American man, all charged with disorder conduct. Some of the disclosures were made into the case are extremely revolting and are unfit for print. The conditions revealed are the most shocking to the common decency and the morality of our city, and it shows we need immediate reformation. There was an expression of indignation by the spectators present. Policeman Henry Harrison, who made the arrest, said the corner of Cedar and Orange streets at 7 o'clock this morning to investigate the conditions reported to be existing there. The officer said that he went to a room in the house and there the man and the two girls occupying the room. *Jacksonville, Fla. Dally Metropolis.* From reliable witnesses present at the trial we learn that there was nothing out of the ordinary in the case except the fact that the girls were white and the man black. There are thousands of such cases, with colors reversed all over the South, but no policeman would think of making an arrest and no Southern judge would punish a white man for consorting with an Afro-American woman. The white man of the South uses his social position and money to debauch the pretty Afro-American girls—and many of them are not so particular about the beauty of their victims. ```markdown ``` According to the Southern standard of morals it's all right for a white man to have a black mistress—it is sustained in practice by the leading prelates, professional and business men—but for a black man to be intimate with a willing white woman is a crime for which he often forfeits his life. It makes all the difference in the world whose ice is gored. The Republicans of the Eighth District of Virginia at their recent convention held at Alexandria evidently do not approve of the disfranchising policy of the Democrats as shown by the following resolution: We denounce all attempts to discriminate in favor of or against citizens of Virginia on account of race or color, because in violation of the Constitution of the United States, which we respect and obey as the supreme law of the land. And reiterates still further and again out last state platform relative to the right of franchise, "protesting against the proposition now set out in our proclaimed constitution, to confer the right of suffrage or unworthy persons on account of the merits or achievements of their ancestors as tending to create a privileged class and discriminating against others equally worthy; but favor such laws and guarantees as will secure to every qualified voter (in the sense of the national Constitution) a free ballot and a fair count." There were nine Afro-American delegates in the convention. The Virginia democrats have extricated themselves from a dilemma. A home for confederate soldiers near Richmond has 300 inmates, all democrats. The national home at Hampton has 3000 inmates, nearly all from the north and republicans. To meet the emergency the attorney general of Virginia has decided that under the new constitution of that state "no inmate of a soldiers' home or other charitable institution is entitled to register and vote anywhere except in the place of his residence prior to becoming an inmate of the institution." They had to disfranchise 300 democrats in order to disfranchise 3000 republicans. One of the delegates to the Afro-American Baptist convention at Birmingham, Ala., in a speech before that body said it would be better if the Afro-Americans would "cease their fussing about 'Jim Crow' cars, save their money and own cars and railroads, and then they could travel as they pleased." Now that is very bad advice. It is necessary to keep up a fuss against every kind of wrong. A dual system of railroads is impossible. Keep up the fight against the "Jim Crow" car and endeavor to make the fight effective. "I know of the bravery and character of the Afro-American soldier. He saved my life at Santiago, and I have had occasion to stay so in many articles and speeches. The Rough Riders were in a bad position when the Ninth and Tenth cavalry came rushing up the hill carrying everything before them. The Afro-American soldier has the faculty of coming to the front when he is needed most. In the Civil war he came 400,000"strong, and I believe he saved the Union."—President Roosevelt. "In the name of 100,000 white yeemen," dramatically exclaimed Locke Craig a Democratic candidate for Senator in North Carolina, "I proclaim that the Negro will stay out of politics forever." Forever is a long time Mr. Craig. The Afro-American is a good citizen and it is the duty of every good citizen to take an interest in politics, to see that good men are put in office, to do all in his power to prevent such bad citizens as Craig from breaking into office. It is said there is to be a lively contest over the estate of Mrs. Julia Hanson, the aged Afro-American woman who died in Washington a short time ago and left $35,000 to charitable and educational "institutions. Her heirs at law allege that her will was executed under stress of undue influence by persons connected with the Catholic institutions to which she made bequests. At the time of her death Mrs. Hanson was nearly ninety years of age. Miss Vera Clark, a young white woman, aged 17 years, residing near Union City, Tennessee, was recently the victim of a brutal and behoused assault by nine white men, well known in the community where she resides. There is no excitement and no talk of lynching. The Afro- Americans residing in the neighborhood are very much shocked at the deprivation of the Caucasians which is revealed by this awful crime. "For nearly a century we have struggled for commercial independence. We have builted, advanced, improved during every period when we have had a tariff for protection, and our industries have gone to pieces every time, and always, when we have had a tariff for revenue only."—Leslie M. Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury. IN THE FOREST. In the Forest. By Maximillian Foster. New York: Doubleday, Page & Co. "In the Forest" is a contribution to ideas on such subjects unless from world-famed thinkers, in the class Aristotle, Plato, Thomas Aquinas, F. Jean Sarthe, Emerson, Mr. Horowitz, son has however written. The people who hope to build up a "illy white" Republican party in the South by repudiating the Afro-American voters will soon find that their plan is doomed to failure. The masses of the whites in the South put their faith in the Democratic party and it will be impossible to make Republicans out of them. "At San Juan hill the Afro-American soldiers rendered an object lesson to all of the soldiers assembled there. They sung and fought and pushed the laggard troops up the hill and the great victory at that point was theirs as much if not more than any of the soldiers there."President Roosevelt. The Republican party cannot be justly charged with the injustice and wrongs offered by the Afro-American people since the slave holders' rebellion. The Democratic party has almost invariably wronged the race, while the Republican party has done much to right these wrongs. Afro-Americans continue to make narrow escapes from infuriated mobs. When a crime has been committed the first one of the race who happens to be passing is regarded as the guilty one and a crowd of angry Caucasian brutes clamor for the life of may be an innocent man. Many of the men who wore tin roosters on their hats in 1892 and then wore Cleveland badges on the seats of their breeches for four years, vtced for McKinley in 1896 and in 1900 and this year they'll vote the straight Republican ticket again. In his experience as one year President, Mr. Roosevelt has demonstrated that he possesses to the highest degree the quality of courage, not merely physical, for that has been the conspicuous characteristic all his life, But moral. "The Jim Crow" car continues to cause murders. In the latest case two Caucasians are dead and one severely wounded. It is unnecessary to add that the Afro-American who was the cause of the trouble is also dead. It is possible that the prevailing prosperity may keep men from taking the time to go to the polls to vote this fall when the Republican party is in power everybody is busy. No victory was ever won without a battle. Remember that and fight for the Republican ticket until the polls close November 4. The Republican party has kept all of its plodges. Vote the Republican ticket straight November 4. I preach the gospel of success. I preach the gospel to you men of the West, who启, life, embody this gospel of hope, this gospel of resolute and confident belief in your own powers and in the destiny of this mighty republic. I believe in it in a sprit which will sit down and loosen the work itself out, but with a determination each of us to do his part in making the future what it can and shall be made. We are optimists. We spurn the teachings of despair and distrust. We have an abiding faith in the growing strength, the growing future, of the mighty young nation, still in the flush of its youth, and yet already with the strength which stands on a continent and grabs an ocean with either hand. Success? Of course we shall succeed! How can success fail to come about? How can energy and feminine character, which we need for the base of its domain and which feels within its veil the thrill that comes to generous souls when their eyes are drawn to the future is theirs? No, our destiny, even yet came to a nation whose people were laggards or faint-hearted, so great destiny ever yet came to their eyes on the ground and their faces shrouded in gloom. Great destiny ever yet came to a people who feared the future more than they honored for success. With such as these we have no part. We know there are dangers ahead, as we know there are evils to fight and overcome but we feel to the full the joy. Stout of heart, we see across the dangers the great future that lies beyond, and we rejoice as a giant retreated, as a strong man gift for the place where the nations strive for mastery, our hearts lifted with the faith that to us and to our children and to our children's children at shall be given the greatest of all the peoples of mankind.

Proof: Millions Use It 670 IN THE FOREST In the Foreset H. 39. New York. Doubleday, Page & "in the Forest" is a contribution to the literature of our country of positive nature, and a contribution to wood-life, wherein the stately deer, the cunning coyote, the fierce and rugged fox, not in the language of men, but in the language of nature "in her natural and nurtured environment," Mr. Foster has made a distinct depart-ment, and unlike Kipling's "Jungle lovers," has animals simply in act in accord-ment to imperious law of nature, and do not take He plays upon your sympathies by eloquent powers of description and narration, and he was so far from having a coyote transported from his western hometown to the east to furnish in the chase of a gumsome and a lame gossier to a lame gossier, and a gossier's sympathy of an young, only to this poor, beast, struggling at times against hunger and trusting to his own power to keep him from being torn to pieces by the murderous pack of hounds at his heels. Time after time, he is not in the service, but his inevitable finish had to arrive, but it did we and ourselves wishing him better. He was very good to be a man who had a long time to live with the ghosts. He took fresh hope, but shortlived indeed. He were at first first and fight, and against what odds. Over the last few days he horsemen thundering to the beak, the leg, in the midst of the baying hounds, was a great loss of the way. He was at the back of the beak, and he struck no more: "one of the two men of the man still finding pleasure and recreation on the outset of beasts, will depart." "Legs," he said, "and a parish, obtains our syn·nething will be the most important thing to the ghosts." The slimness of forest, mountain stream and solitude, dethrenst live roam in solitude, broken rarely by the feet of man, the animals "on their native language" are areas with the author in the words of the same words with the silence of the child, and well with the life of the child's story. The moose has colossus now, his horns broadly, palmed and fixed with a fringe of bayonet prongons, were the terror and envy of the herds. volume is profusely illustrated by Pierre Hébert's ideas with an art striking and cartoony style. EDUCATION AND THE LARGER LIFE Education and the Larger Life. By C. J. Hewlett and New York, Houghton, Mifflin & Henderson which has made its appearance this year. The title suggests a treatise on philosophy, and in this interesting volume before discovering original ideas covering clear, striking and concluding manner. Education and ethics, theoretical and applied, are subjects which have been examined by professors and publicists, and one does not expect to encounter in our time any new ideas on such subjects, unless from a world-famed thinker, in the class Aristotle, Plato, Thomas Aquinas, Rousseau, Spencer or Emerson. Mr. Henderson has, however, stated a proposition about the significance of language, which so far as we know is entirely original, and which in our opinion, lays the foundation for a new grammar of great simplicity and strength. He says: "We may say that just as human consciousness is the one experienced reality, so the expression of this reality is to be found in language. Logically speaking we have only three classes of words, nouns, verbs and connectives." For convenience of treatment, the grammars name eight or nine. The author then says that the entire phenomena of the physical world may be resolved into three manifestations, "matter, motion and relation," and that since language is the result of experience with the material world. "nouns represent matter, verbs—motion, connectives—relation." The author's discussion of cause and effect, experimentation, experimental source of power, and other subjects are treated in a clear and earnest manure. WHAT A WOMAN'S HIGHT TO KNOW.

Lowe, Louise Colburn, $39. pp. Over 150 illus. John W. Edgar: York: Edgar S. Werner Publishing Company. It is surprising what a dearth of books on this subject there is. A visit to one of the largest publishers of school books is only one of the work of recent date. This book will therefore supply a long needed want among public school teachers, specialists of physical culture and those persons desiring a practical system of physical exercise for the home which has set a taught "The first part of" "Graded Physical Exercises" is, as its name indicates, devoted to a system of exercises, to be given in an ordinary room without apparatus. The system is divided into eight grades, one set for each year of school life. Each group is a natural outgoing form of the preceding one, the principle that only from the frequent repetition of a movement benefit can be derived being carried consistently out, though each group is complete in itself. The exercises suited to adult development begin with Grade V, continuing throughout the series. The system is not merely theoretical, but it is practical, having been tested by the author in six years' use in public schools and academies. DOROTHY SOUTH Dorothy South. By George Cary Eggleston, $1.50. Boston: Lothrop Publishing Co. Mr. Eggleston deals in this book with the Virginians of the great plantations during the decade before the civil war, when not to be a Virginian was deemed by them a misfortune, if not a sin of omission. They looked upon their countrymen from other states very much as the Greeks looked upon foreigners—they considered them "barbarians," Mr. Eggleston tells us and he sympathizes with the feeling, at least for the purposes of his novel, which mingles a simple, most readable, love story with a series of pictures of the life and the time and the place that are full of grace. The Negro characters in the book, they are all slaves, were well treated by their masters and well cared for because they were very valuable property. Mr. Eggleston's hero is at first something of a prig, but he becomes human very rapidly after circumstances have led him into the current of the plot. There is no drama here, even though the war fills the closing chapters of the book, which is mainly a picture of the peaceful, cultured, conservative, old-fashioned south of the past.

ALL ON ACCOUNT OF ELIZA. ALD ON ACCOUNT OF LEZAR Unquestionably one of the greatest comedy successes of the American stage has known the name "Marylin" for her role in the play of Ethel McKinnon, clever and milking play, from the pen of Leo Dilfritchstein. A splendid comedy organization will, under the management of Mr. Jacob Litt, present the play at the Grand Opera House, the coming week, commencing next Sunday night. The success of this piece in New York was amazing. It ran for weeks at the Garrick theatre there to crowded houses and scored an instantaneous hit with the theatre, laughable and divarring comedies that has ever pleased play-goers, and it will undoubtedly repeat the great success it has achieved elsewhere upon the occasion of its presentation in this city. It is a delightful story of American life, the scene being laid in a small village in Western New York, and portrays effectively some of the characteristic lines of life in a small community. The play is constructed on pure comedy lines and there runs through it the essence of genuine humor. There is not a dull moment in the entire play, but the characters begin to fall in a certain. The situations are intensely amusing and the character types introduced are enjoyed with a thorough relish by all lovers of good wholesome THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRICAN-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER "I haven't paid $5.00 I began wearing the G the best." fun.

So rich is it in quaint and diverting humor that recourse is not made to the old custom of dragging in vaudeville acts to help out, as is usually done in the average farce comedy. In a word, it is a high class, refined comedy with an inesting story and a succession of extremely funny incidents. The production will be the most elaborate ever given a piece of this class—the accessory Garrick theatre equipment and the accessories being carried by the company. An evening of unalloyed enjoyment can be assured to all who witness a performance this rattling good comedy-drama. It will be seen here for one week with the usual Wednesday and Saturday matinees.

Chicago The Indiana conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church at Terre Haute, Ind., has received the report of the committee on "the state of African-American life" with the condition of the Afro-American in the south. As to lynchings the report said: "The men who fall to condemn the state and choose to do what has been done in the Phillipines are indeed neglecting the beam in their own eye while taunting their brother about the mote in his. Lynchings grow out of the old idea of slavery that "a Negro has no rights, a white man is bound to respect." "These southern aristocrats believe that they are of the purest strain of cannusha or white blood and that they are the lords of the human family. They believe that they are the lords of creation and should rule, and that the proper place or the Afro-American is that of the lords of the human family, was the triumph of fanaticism over right, and yet if the question was submitted to them today, slavery or no slavery, they would say no." They are usually problemably and manifestly many of them are reduced to poverty. "The Bourbon blood is mixed with the black blood. Many of the slaves the sons of the slaves design of the master they design of the Afr- American apper, from or age or kana roo and hence has velvet hair. "The Afro-American people never inaugurate a strike or assassinate a slave, nor accuse the race, therefore, of mental or moral imbecility. All the Afro-American wants is fair play and to be let alone. Let him work and let him vote without molestation. If you see him on his way to congress, let him form a band and stand congress can stand him." A WONDERFUL CONVENTION. Annual Meeting of the Disciples of Christ at Omaha Will be a him Breaker. For the first time in the history of the United States every railroad has made a one-fare rate to a religious convention. The convention in question is the annual international convention of the Disciples of Christ, which meets in Omaha, Neb., October 15-23, 1902. One fare for the round trip every year is $10. In the United States has been offered. Parties interested should consult the nearest railroad agent. It is expected that upwards of 30,000 visitors will be in Omaha during the convention. Even lower than one fare may be secured from points within the convention. Large parties are organized and excursion trains run. Try it from your locality. The convention will be held in the Coliseum, which has been redecorated and refurbished for the occasion. The Coliseum will seat comfortably 14,000 people and may be located within the building. Rooms may be secured by addressing the chairman of the entertainment committee, care Millard Hotel. The Coliseum was erected for Patti to sing in and 22,500 people heard her.

Dixon's Damnable Book Scored by Eworth Herald. The Epworth Herald has this to say of Tom Dixon's alleged literary production. "The large sale of Thomas Dixon's book surprises us. Its literary merit is not extraordinary. The sentimental side is overdrawn. Indeed, judged by the author, it is hardly be called a story at all. The narrative was written to serve the author's one purpose throughout. That purpose was to misrepresent and villify the Negro. The purpose of the Negro race which Mr. Dixon manifests in every chapter is intense. The language employed is often brutal. In all our conversations with Southern people we have never heard anything which approaches it. We are not surprised that many of such, persons have recreated the book as a gross misrepresentation of the spirit of their people. "There have been, and are, certain Negroes quite as bad as this author describes No doubt of that. But a negro denunciation of a people, held for genius, ignorance, based upon the misdeeds of certain deprived representatives of that race, is unfair and contemptible. Mr. Dixon reflected astonishingly upon the intelligence of his readers both in South and the North when he presumed to paint his overcolored picture. "We read the book on a railroad train the other day. At night when we retired to our Pullman berth, we left the volume upon the seat across the porter reading it with the deepest foresst. He had been poring over it during the whole night. A clear-eyed, educated, gentlemanly fellow was this porter. "As he looked up from the book, his eyes full of tears. "Can a leopard change his spots?" he asked in a hoarse voice. And then he answered his question. "Yes, yes, he can. I have changed mine. I was ignorant, without ambition, and careless of both mind and need. But I saw my bungalow need. I decided to be a man. I am a man, even if my color is black. I graduated from college. I have built a home. I have saved my money. I love God and keep his little children. I love Gedi and keep his children. I love Sir, the sir, the sir can change his spots!" As he uttered these sentences his manner was most dramatic and intricate. His eyes flamed, and his lips trembled. He was not wonder. Had he not been reading an infamous libel upon his race? "We wonder what kind of people are buying "The Leopard's Spots?" We suppose the kind who demand the truth in literature, no matter what it is.

In these suits more than in any other make we find the best combination of style and durability. Black and blue Cheviots cut in the popular, three-button, double-breasted style predominate, though there are many fancy mixtures. All are made with double seat and knee—the cloth running from each side seam, where it is covered by heavy tape. The buttons are riveted so that the suit cannot rip or tear.
