Fashions of the Summer
Fitted to
Lady Suffolk enjoys the rare honor of having a hat named after her. It bids fair to become as famous as the Galnsborough. The hat, which comes from the workshop of a celebrated French hat designer, is built upon the dish shape. Its brim turns down all the way around, but one side is lifted upon a bandeau. Under the lifted side there are three red roses: American beauty, pale red and polished red. The Suffolk hat, in its original, is a pale gray. It is trimmed around the crown with some deep gray roses; and under one side there are three roses in varying shades of gray. Thus it becomes a semi-mourning hat.
The hats this year are decidedly out of the usual running. They are different from the hats of any previous season, and there is very little resemblance to be traced even to last year's hat. So decided is the change that it is actually difficult to wear any of last summer's shapes.
In period the hats might be called one hundred years old, for they partake of the square or dish qualities of one hundred years ago and they also have the floral traits of those hats of bygone times.
The Hats Are Unusual.
Those who like something out of the ordinary will have no trouble in being suited. But it remains for the women of taste to select a hat that is becoming to her. These new shapes are trying until one learns how to wear them. The women who start out to buy a hat for spring, a general utility hat.

will fall utterly, for there is no such thing as a hat of general wear this season. All hats are specially designed to go with certain costumes, and most hats are made to order and fitted to the head. The coiffure must always be worn in the same manner with the same hat.
The fashionable hats are trimmed in the new shades. There is a lovely hat of white trimmed with apricot yellow which goes well with the white sweater and with the chinchons and mustard colors. It can be modified somewhat by making the hat of black, with trimnings of the apricot yellow. A chain of thyellow roses with their green leaves encircles the crown.
Hats Lifted at Right Side.
One of the very newest hats is set upon a bandeau all around. The right side is raised and a feather is set upon the bandeau so as to fall upon the hair. The top of the hat is trimmed with a large bird with spreading wings. The wings are held in place by two hat pins with big round tops. These knobs of enamel are much used in hat trimming.
There are hats made this season with no bandeau at all; the hat sets rather flatly upon the head; but this calls for a great deal of hair dressing. There must be puffs and cornet braids and amasses of little curls. Many of the flat hats have these puffs and curls attached to the side. The hair is matched to the collar and the hat is pinned on so that the curls and puffs arrange themselves naturally with the aid of a pin or two.

At nearly all of the functions she wore a different gown and each was selected with a degree of taste which showed much dressmaking and money. Her shopping dress was interesting from an everyday standpoint, for it was neat almost to the point of severity. Yet it had the English touch or daimntiness around the neck.

royal blue serge over a white taffeta foundation. The suit was a two-piece with skirt trimmed with bias folds of taffeta and some embroidery of precisely the same shade. The bolero was short, with square points in front, one of those plain but Frenchy little affairs trimmed with a bit of embroidery and tied with a wide blue silk coat. The shirtwaist, which was plainly visible, was of the lingerie variety without being too sheer for wear with a shopping suit.
The hat was a navy blue mushroom with a twist of navy blue velvet around the crown and an immense bunch of garden flowers at the right side. The shopping umbrella was navy blue with a wood handle and a bow of blue taffeta around the handle; and the gloves were long tan colored ones to match the tan boots. The gloves were little and white ones at popular prices are beginning to make their appearance. They are high in the heel, rather pointed in the toe and eminently fit to be worn over the pretty shoes of the season.
In the day and house coat the little white lace affair is to be much worn. With a handsome Irish lace bridge coat a woman can get through the social season very nicely, wearing her old lingerie waist and her last year's dinner skirts. The white lace bridge coat a woman can wear and its wide girdle of silk, will bridge over the chasm between waist and skirt in case they should not quite match.
There is something of a passion for embroidery put on in the new way. Hand embroidery straps are used to trim box plaited skirts. Three or four of the little straps are placed up the side of the skirt in such a manner as to bind the plaits together. The straps afford a pleasant relief from the monotony of the box plaits.
An old box-plaited cloth skirt can be made to look quite new by the application of a panel of these emproidered straps.

Aerial navigation will be an open book to all who visit the Jamestown exposition, at Norfolk, Va., this year. The aeronautic exhibit will illustrate the history and progress of all attempts to master the etherial mystery and overcome the power of gravitation.
The art of sky climbing is regarded by enthusiasts as having now entered the realm of reality. What has been accomplished to this time by the many bright minds concentrated on the work will be shown at this exposition on the shores of Hampton Roads. It is expected that as great impetus will be given to building, superer-
ranean yachting, flying, or whatever one would call it. All of the late inventions and contrivances of airship builders, many of which and their performances have been described in public prints, will be there for the inspection of the exposition goer. Those disposed to view the aerial fun from attitudinal vantage may do so from captive balloons. Capt. Baldwin, who is recognized as 'the greatest of American aeronauts, and who was con-
spicuous in the exhibits aloft at St. Louis, will have the captive floating observatories in charge. Dr. Julius P. Thomas of New York, whose thrilling experiences have put Munchausen's adventures in the shade, will be there with his big Nirvana, and his dirigible, as will Santos Dumont with his collection of aircraft, and many of the other pioneer

Dr. Thomas has been on the grounds already testing the lifting power of Norfolk gas, and though, on a recent visit, an ascent was out of the question, because of the severity of the elements, he is soon to visit Norfolk again and give some attention to air currents. The Aero Club of New York has taught the exposition aerial exhibit with a zebra-horse and under its and the exposition's airplane, an aeronautic congress is to be held that will bring together the aeronauts of the world, while international contests will put all kinds of air craft through spaces that will embrace high flying, speed and long distance flights.

tive equilibrium. Prof. Langley's flying machine failed for the same reason.
All attempts at flight by "heavier than air" machines, such as those built to fly as a bird, and the aeroplane and aerodrome construction have failed up to date because of this defect.
The balloon proper as a means of sustaining a man dates back to 1783. The first successful dirigible was American, in 1833. This, however, was but a model. A dirigible was begun in Paris during the siege of that city and later completed. It proved fairly successful. Prior to that, a dirigible was constructed, but it could not be sailed directly against the wind. The more recent accomplishment of Santos Dumont and that of Kabensheng, who sailed around the dome of the capitol at Washington, show that the dirigible has reached a stage of considerable advancement.
WN EXPOSITION.
Man's attempt to ape the bird is almost as early as history, and indeed legendary. Ovid tells of Daedalus and Icarus who, imprisoned in Crete, unable to escape by sea, made for themselves wings of feathers attached to frames by wax, and tied them to their arms. All went well till Icarus soared toward the sun, which melted the wax. Icarus fell into the sea.
A Persian legend tells of a king who required his wise men to prepare a
device whereby he might ascend into the sky. The wit of the wise men evolved a platform to which were attached four eagles, suspended above which were pieces of goat's flesh. As the eagles flew up to reach the meat the king had his desires satisfied but he was compelled to stay in the etherial regions until it pleased the birds to descend.

UNDER FIVE FLAGS
HISTORY OF OLD STONE FORT AT NACOGDOCHELS.
Historical Souvenir of the Building Recently Presented to the Alamo—Was Abiding Place of Many Patriots.
An historical souvenir of the old stone fort at Nacogdoches was recently presented to the Alamo by William H. and Walter T. Crouch, says the San Antonio Express. This interesting souvenir is made of the historic wood of the old stone fort of Nacogdoches, Tex.
It is a gavel and block with photographs of William H. Crouch and Walter T. Crouch. The photographs are inlaid on the block in the shape of a five-pointed star. Hisory states in the necessity for an official seal. Gov. Smith used a five-pointed brass button cut from his old coat, thus originating the beautiful emblem—the five-pointed star.
There is not another building perhaps in the United States besides the stone fort that could claim with certainty the peculiar distinction of having in its career floated from its ramparts at different times the national emblems of five different governments, of which two are foreign. The national emblem of the stone fort and those who claimed or sought protection therefrom was the Spanish flag—the dual ensign of Castle and Aragon. This flag had its origin in the uniform of Castle and Aragon by the marriage of Ferdinand and Isabella. It was under its protection that the final phase of the Fredonians were arranged after the expulsion and retreat of Piedros.
Here, also, in the summer of 1812 rested the army of Magee Gueiterros. Tradition says the stone fort was Magee's headquarters and in one of its rooms he wrote three proclamations to the people of Texas. Under its folds Houston, Crockett, Bowie and other heroes rested at sundry times. It was here that Haden Edwards, the distinguished old patriot who was

born in Virginia before the declaration of independence and came to Texas when Spain owned and ruled the land, established a colony, inaugurating a scheme of independent government here before independence had been thought of—naming it the Republic. A street In Nacogdoches was named and is called Freonia. It was in the old stone fort that Amos Edwards, the brother of Haden Edwards, stopped on his journey from Kentucky; and there Penelope Edwards, the great-grandmother of William H. and Walter T. Crouch, was stolen from the old stone fort by Col. I. D. Thomas and married in the second two-story house built in Texas, now standing on the St. Augustine. Capt. William Edwards, greatest brother of Penelope Edwards, fought the fort about the year 1830. He afterward became a gallant soldier, organized the Houston Light Guards and became its first Captain.
Cradle Two Hundred Years Old.
The slumber place of seven generations is being rocked daily in a Minneapolis home, says the Minneapolis Journal. Mrs. Charles Sowie, of 3205 Park avenue, is the possessor of a valuable family heirloom in the shape of a cradle which is more than 200 years old. The cradle originally came from Holland, but has been in this country since 1668. Solidly built of mahogany, it has defied the ravages of time, and has successfully withstood the treatment of seven generations of children who have slept in it, played with it, and butfeted it after the manner of children of every century.
Most Remarkable Band
Probably the most remarkable band on earth is that which is stationed in the imperial palace at Moscow, says Tit-Bits. A famous composer was recently taken into a darkened room to hear one of his new compositions played by this band. The composer was mystified until the lights were raised; when 200 soldiers were rearranged in horn or trumpet in his hand varying from one and one-half inches to 20 feet. Each instrument and each performer produced only a single note, but the music was so perfect that the sound was just as if from one grand instrument played upon by a master band.
A Two Pound Fish in a Jug.
A remarkable catch of fish was made here recently. While workmen were busy cleaning out an old ditch that had been abandoned for five years they came upon an old jug. In the jug was a two-pound fish that was as lively as if just taken from the river. It is supposed that it entered the jug when it was a minnow. The neck of the jug was much smaller than the fish.
The shorter a man is the longer he is willing to talk.

SOUTHERN SITUATION
The political situation in the south is a response to both parties, and a meacuse between them. It is in flat and marginal violation of the constitution. Two amendments to that instrument stand multifaceted: to action the republican party acquiesces. To be sure, the mandate to continue devaluation of the democratic action and a promise to apply the promise is never redeemed. With the houses of Congress and the presidency in their control, the republicans have had little chance of constitutional representation in both the House and the electoral college, but have the electoral college, but have the congress obligated.
The foregoing from the Washington Star is an admirable statement of past and existing political conditions. The fact that two articles of the Constitution which are generally, though erroneously, considered as appertaining solely to the welfare of the Afro-American, are openly and flagrantly violated throughout the entire South, is just as important as though any other part of that instrument was set aside and held for naught, insomuch as it furnishes a precedent and pretext for nullifying any other provision of which any state may disapprove.
The failure to enforce those amendments has resulted in reducing the Republican party in the South to a

thing of shreds and patches, scrambling over Federal offices and growing small by degrees and beautifully less as the days are passing by. The success of the South in setting aside such portions of the Supreme law of the land, is what has embolized her to enact cimrow caws, segregation bills and other devices specially designed to expel the Republican party from her borders. It has turned that section over to the control of such blatherlites as Tillman, Vardaman and Hoax Smith.
LYNCHING A VIOLATION OF THE
CONSTITUTION.
Judge Thomas G. Jones, of the Alabama Federal bench, has just rendered a decision concerning lynching that will, if affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States, go far toward solving one of the most vexing problems this country has had to face. Judge Jones holds that a person who forcibly takes from the custody of any official, State or otherwise, a prisoner accused of crime, and, after such taking, lynches, helps to lynch, or attempts to lynch the sold prisoner, is guilty of violence to the provisions of the Constitution of the United States, and that it is the duty of the officers of the United States to take cognizance of the same and assume jurisdiction 40 punish the offender. Judge Jones bases his decision, of course, up on the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments to the Constitution.
We copy the above from the Washington Herald, which also states that an appeal from the decision will at once be taken to the Supreme Court. We hope that the latter assertion is true and that the case will very shortly reach the Supreme Court. It is a well-known fact that the trials of lynchers by their friends and neighbors is nothing less than a pitiful farce—that, in fact the grand jury and the mob are the very same persons. For this reason, not a single state in the country is able to cope with the hoodlums, thugs and hoboes who make up the mob. We believe that it is not necessary to base the decision entirely upon the amendment mentioned. The Constitution obligates the general government to guarantee to every state a republican form of government, and, if a state cannot put down mob-rule, the government should do so.
"DEMENTIA MISSIPIANA"
Some fellow, in the Saturday Evening Post—founded by the old abolitionist, Benjamin Franklin—has given a "dementia Mississippi" dissertation upon what he calls "The Vardaman Idea," in which he endeavors to show that Abraham Lincoln and Vardaman are par mobile fratum, Arcades ambo and chips of the same block generally. The fellow talks glibly about ancient history as if he knew all about it, and seems to have swallowed every non-sensical myth that was ever published or promulgated in any way.
His argument is substantially this—that the genuine Negro has always been regarded as an inferior race and that the Afro-Americans, descended, in part, from him, have inherited certain racial characteristics which will forever and forever render them unworthy of actual citizenship in the United States.
Incidentally he mentions some of the meritorious acts of his hero, the mongrel, half Indian Vardaman, such
as protecting some members of the race from being lynchei.
The learned dissertation about the sutures is a particularly atrocious piece of nonsense, and not sustained by a single medical authority of any note.
Now it does not amount to anything how savage and barbarous the progenitors of the Afro-Americans were, the important point is what they amount to themselves. Thousands of them are vastly the superiors of the mollycoddle who pumped all that slush into the journal founded by Benjamin Franklin, the old abolitionist.
STAY AWAY FROM SEATTLE.
Out in Seattle where the color line has never been drawn before, the Christian Endeavor entertainment committee, composed of alleged Christians has voted to draw the color line and the hotels have refused to reserve accommodations for Afro-American delegates.
Very properly the Afro-American residents of Seattle have met in mass meeting and passed resolutions asking Afro-American bishops and delegates to the C. E. convention to be held in that city in July to stay away from the convention and the city.
THE APPEAL endorses the position of the Seattle Afro-Americans and suggests that the bishops and delegates not only give Seattle a bureth, but that they have nothing further to do with the band of hypocrites who call themselves Christian Endeavors.
THE OFF-COLOR BROTHER
The off-color brother, in almost every part of the world, seems to be getting a hustle on him which is very disquieting to his white masters. China, Japan, Egypt, India and South Africa are becoming restless and troublesome and are giving the "home governments" no little concern. This is the natural result of the white man's greed and cruelty which have made nearly the whole earth an Acedama and Inferno. It is the concurrent testimony of the most reliable and candid observers—men of the white race—that the dark-skinned races of Asia and Africa are filled with hatred for the white man, as they certainly have cause to be.
NOT CHRISTIANS
The press dispatch from Seattle, Washington, stating that the entertainment committee of the Christian Endeavor societies of Seattle had voted that Afro-American delegates to the convention in July, should not be housed in the same hotels with whites, was headed "Christians Draw the Color Line." The people who are responsible for this damnable display of race prejudice are NOT CHRISTIANS. The true Christian, like Christ has no race prejudice. He believes in the "Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man." The Seattle Christians (?) are heathens.
Some of the newspapers have started a crusade against the five-cent theatres. They may be and probably are tough institutions, but we have heard of their figuring in such an affair as the Thaw case; which gives them a decided advantage over the Madison Square Garden. But, then poor folks have no business to be unclean; that is a prerogative of "society."

The Vexing Servant Problem
By Mary E. Wilkins Brains More Necessary Than Physical Strength in the Kitchen
—Society to Blame for Servant's Wrong Estimate of Domestic Service —Mistress Needs Complete Knowledge of Housekeeping to Direct Blind Willingness and Bovine Obedience —Position of Domestic Servant Should Be Made More Attractive —Time Needed for Solution of the Problem.
(Copyright by J. B. Bowles.)
(Miss Mary E. Wylkins, now Mrs. Charles Freeman, is so much better than she is a housewife that many readers will be surprised to find how much she likes homelike. Among her many popular books, she be mentioned "embroke" by Humble. He be mentioned "Glasco" by Jerome," "The Jamesons" and "The Penguins" in the conditions of the problem are very simple, the solution, of course, not so simple; solutions never are, otherwise no problem. Still, the solution, or a solution, may seem evident enough, and all the trouble consist in the extreme inconvenience, not to say impossibility, of putting it to a practical application. It is perfectly easy to say that two and two make four, fully to understand that two and two make four, fully to understand that it will well high impossible to make the four. Perhaps the factors will not combine at all or not without an explosion.
Often with the servant problem it may be quite evident what the difficulty is, at least generally speaking. A thoughtful and discriminating woman who has tried housekeeping herself, or made an intelligent study of its requirements, soon reached the conclusion that the simplest and most primitive household tasks require brains and no small allowance of them. In reality she discovers that brains are more necessary in the kitchen than physical strength.
A stupid servant cannot even sweep a room skillfully. She will inevitably scatter the dust and lint that comes as mysteriously as the wind in the new testament and as defiantly, where it steth, instead of into the wood, out of door limbo of dust, where it probably returns, but that cannot be helped; it makes the task of servitude perennial. It is essential at all events that it be banished thither, but no unskilled, brainless servant can effect that.
You can teach her to the best of your ability. You can say: "Now, Abigail, you must take this and cover that; you must dust first; you must sweep so and so." It will be fruitless unless Abigail has a receptive and intelligent order of mind, and usually she will not have it. If she does possess that order of mind she will be at a typewriter machine or a sewing machine, or in a schoolroom or a milliner's or photographer's parlor, instead can your kitchen. She may be prinkled and part behind a counter. In any case, wherever else they may be, the brains are not in your kitchen, unless you have fortunately struck the exception to prove the rule. If Abigail had possessed brains she would at once have proceeded to attempt something which she could not do half as well as she might have done your housework and, if she had only so viewed it, without half the glory.
A good domestic is such a rara avail that she ought to have a prestige like any other rare thing, but she has it not, and one cannot blame her, but society, for her wrong estimate of the desirability of domestic service. No one should be so blinded and especially the American born, is as a rule going into your kitchen to work if she has mental ability. The mental ability presupposes ambition and the ambition in this country means to an Abigail a position in doors of a certain class shall not be called on her on account of her calling.
Everybody with wit has an amuclative eye and a ready foot for the next step above him in social caste. As a rule all others have either been crushed by circumstances into passiveness or they are really too dull to comprehend that they are not all which they might reasonably desire and have not the most desirable position. They are too stupid to be ambitions and stay where their conditions of life happen to tosse them, like leaves too inert to be stirred by any gust of wind, with neither motion of their own nor capability of receiving motion from others. These are they to whom you pay $12, $14, $16, or $18, making the almess impoles treadmil your kitchen, to do labor without compulsion heeding either its object or itself, like the crudest, rudest machine conceivable. We have advanced immeasurable in our inventions, our printing presses, our typewriters, all our labor-saving and perfecting machines, but the servant still docks back to the days of the handloom and the spindle.
Of course I do not speak of trained English and French servants or American servants with a like training or of those employed in situations where wealth can command a goodly allowance of ability in this as in other directions. Wealth can do almost anything.
Peak of the usual servant at usual wages in the families of moderate means who have the severe struggle with the servant problem, since their own minds and muscles are involved in its solution.
There is felt keenly the lack of brain and gray matter, not of blind willingness and bovine obedience in the kitchen. That, as before said, is the reason why when Abigail sweeps the floor dust taken wings and knelt to the ceiling, she is overdone or underdone; why the dishes are nicked and the substance wasted. And there is as much sense in finding fault and blaming as in finding because, one cannot pick figs from thistles. The whistles of life choke on the figs for the most
part. While there really are fing, they never grow on thistles.
The one answer to the question as to what shall be done in the case of inadequate intelligence in the kitchen there must presuppose itself. Brains there must be able to fall. If there are none in the kitchen there must be some in the parlor, and the motive power must extend to the kitchen and supply the need there. When the room is swept there must the queen reign, her throne must be movable into the quarters where the kitchen dishes washed. She must persevere the dishes with her superior intelligence and above all she must be able to perform herself, perfectly, in the manner which she advocates, the tasks which she sets the servant. She may not, actually do them, but she must know how with head and hands. She must be trained by the teacher in the lessons which she gives before she can teach to advantage.
But the mistress may have no more fitness for her position than the maid for hars. She may not only lack ability but the power to acquire ability. What then? The chances are that while two and two exist they can never be combined, that while the household remains there will never be peace and order and work well done. And there is her contingency. The mistress is abundantly able, she may have the knowledge which gives her the right to teach, she may have the power to enforce the teaching by the authority of example, and yet manifest duty may point out another path for her willing but restricted feet. There are cases in which a woman would not save but squander, would not do right but wrong, in devoting herself entirely to the management of her household and servants. Sometimes the queen must go abroad for women in sterner and broader fields and have her closet and her bread and honey. Sometimes it is she who has to count out the money.
What then? The problem remains stated, its solution indicated but impossible. Abigails come and go, and the dirt and disorder and discomfort with laurels and the new aspirant takes her place, until the end.
There is no way out which is infallible, though many may be suggested. Possibly the awakening of selfish interest, which ignoble thing is, after all, a powerful mind tonic for the most of us; might stir the sluggish nature and rouse the dormant faculties to energy. What that selfish interest should be could be proved by experiment. Possibly small new privileges or rewards, although those are always doubtful; possibly a system of profsharing, or rather saving-sharing, might work well. But that is all suggestion, and the first experiment might prove the futility of it. Possibly the caste of the domestic servant might be elevated gradually by a careful and judicious system until in time the servant would be more desirable by the intelligent serviceable of skilled labor. That may seem to advocate the old New England system of having hired man and girl sit at the table with the family, but it need not necessarily involve that. The servant might have her quarters made more befitting a person in a higher walk of life, her manner of dressing might be improved and she might be made to feel that her work was her distinction, instead of her disgrace, and in time it might all be better. But who knows?
The problem, although old as the world and lightly spoken of, is serious, involving as it does the power and leisure to do lastwork of the best workers in the world. Unless Abigail Gallagher was a teacher, the teacher, the scholar, the writer, are in a great measure powerless; but who shall regulate the serving of Abigail?
The Poet and the Officer
Carducci, the great Italian poet who has just died, came near having a duel one day. He possessed a fine spirit of contradiction and had the characteristics of a fighter. Once while traveling in Lombardy he was in a railway compartment with an army officer who did not recognize him. Conversation turned upon the latest literary productions. They spoke of a poem by the author of "Odes Barbares," which had just appeared.
"This Carducci," exclaimed the officer with enthusiasm, "is a superb genius, the greatest since Dante, and the equal of Dante himself." "a genius? That's too much to say; I find him very mediocre."
"Medicore, sir? You don't know anything about it."
"Oh, you are capable of judging."
The officer handed his card to his disputant. The other smiled. "There's mine!" And on it was the name, "Glosse Carducci, Professor at the University Bologna." The officer, removing his hat, politely bowed.
About Moving Books.
One of the most irksome tasks of moving is the packing of books. They are heavy, and they need to pack, and the bindings are easily marred. The best way, in case there is a number to be removed, is to provide the requisite number of soap or shoe-boxes, line them with newspapers and pack the books in them, filling crevices with crumpled paper. Spread papers on top, and box covers need not be put on. Label each box in case there are several bookcases, and they will be the more easily restored to their proper positions. For part of the joy of having books is to be able to put one's hand on the wanted one at will.

Jamestown Exposition Notes
One of the most remarkable exhibits to be installed in the Afro-American Department is a friction-heater, of which Mr. C. S. L. Baker, of Kansas, is the inventor and patentee. In this wonderful machine, Mr. Baker has managed to multiply seven times over the average efficiency of electricity, producing heat by the friction process and has secured results almost unbelievable. He can, with his invention, heat a railway passenger coach without using an ounce of fuel, obtaining the motive power necessary to run his friction heater from the rear of machines beneath coach; he can go into a new building, when probably $6,000 worth of steam pipes would ordinarily be required, and will operate a coffee stand at the exposition, where he will serve coffee made by his friction-heater. Dr. Baker's unique machine bids fair to revolutionize existing methods of securing heat for public and private purposes.
Mr. Clarence Cameron White, director of the musical exhibit, will have as a feature of his collection, a list of the music teachers of the country, together with the branches of music taught, number of pupils and other data showing the extent of the development and aspiration of the Afro-American in the musical arena.
CAN'T PUNISH SUICIDE.
It is Therefore Hard to Punish an Attempt at Suicide.
The way of the man who commits or attempts to commit suicide has presumably been hard; but his way as a transgressor is not always made harder by the law.
In the case of a successful suicide there is an insuperable difficulty in the way of punishment. Therefore, says the American Law Review, the impossibility of punishing suicide itself may prevent punishment for an unsuccessful attempt.
This is so in Maine, as the result of a statute providing for the punishment of attempts to commit a crime, which fixes the punishment as one-half of that for the crime itself. There being no punishment possible for the crime, there is held to be none for the attempt.
The Maine statutes contain a provision that where no punishment is provided by statute a person convicted of an offense shall be imprisoned for less than one year or fined not to exceed $500. The view would seem possible that as suicide was at common law punished by forfeiture and ignominious burial, it is still a crime and comes under the punishment provided by this section; and that while punishment can never be inflicted, yet the half of it is applicable under the statute first above referred to. Assistance in the suicide of another, however, is not to be given with impunity.
**Puzzle for Post office Clerks.**
Cleverness is one of the attributes necessary for every man who is employed in the postoffice sorting mail, for he meets with all kinds of freaks in the shape of letters peculiarly addressed. Some jokers appear to think that all the postal clerk has to do is to solve puzzles.
Recently at the Boston office a letter was received addressed "Wood, Mass.," with a line drawn under the "Wood" and over the "Mass." The letter went out on the same day it was received and reached Mark Underwood, Andover, Mass., for whom it was intended, and the postal clerk who solved the riddle did not think he had done anything brilliant. It was all in has done.
