It says editorially: silly expressed his notion to be that the Negro race elevating, and that it can be by intermarriage. he whites object to intermar- and the Rev. Mr. Duckell is the objection is sound. feels that the Negro should watee anyhow, and that the plan would be to have Negro chinese marry each other.

Evening American vetoes the energetically. I believe that the Negroes pace may have a future be- them, whereas the Chinese pace are dead. whites having behind them miles of education, which the man has not known, are su- ser, as a race to the Negro as but no man can say how far African race will develop be it shall have exhausted the limited possibilities of time of opportunity. long before our Greee and ans predecessors were heard long before the Chinese wall built, there were great Afri- astronomers great African treats and great African takers of religion. the fortunes of races may vary the fortunes of individual ties - now up in the world down again. See African during the few times that incomplete history is to us has made a hard against nature. He has found conquered the hot sun, devers, the wild animals of most difficult continent on globe. All we know, there may be a higher work marked ont him. He may rise and rule in turn when our day shall have end ed. Our skins were not always white. Back in history somewhere we bleached gradually from the tint of our harry and primitive ancestors to our present fair color, as linen bleacces spread out on the lawn. The Negro's time may come, with the white skin and all—if he cares to have it—without the help of the white race, or the Chinese either. There is more real humanity in one good Negro, more kindness of heart, more poetry, more real soul, than in a half dozen Chinese Our friend the Rev. Mr Duckwall means well with his suggestion but we venture to say that every Negro will reject it What the Negros want principally is to be let alone. They don't want any social equality—and would not think of it if politicians would stop meddling They want to develop in their own way, with a fair chance to develop. They don't want to rule the whites, for they know that the whites would not let them even if they did want to. They want a chance to grow, time and opportunity to show what they can be. The wise among them do not expect to do much with but two generations of education as the whites have done with two hundred generations. The Afro-American has done wonderfully well already—he will do much better in the future and he will not need any Chinese or husband to help. Too Much for the Turnstiles. Too Much for the Turistsies. The Wichita Eagle tells a new story on Fritz Schcitzler, Wichita's well known fat man. Schnitzler went to the worlds fair last week and found that he could not pass through the turstiles at the regulrr entrances. They bad to take him around to one of the cattle and pass him in that way. RUSKIN'S KINDNESS OF HEART. Absence of Snobbishness in Character of Great Writer. An intimate friend of Ruskin's relates an incident illustrating that simplicity, gentleness and sympathy which were characteristic of his relations with the servants of his household. "I was dining with Mr. Ruskin one evening, when during the meal, as we were enjoying a rhubarb tart, I happened to say that it was the first I had tasted that season, and remarked how delicious it was. Mr. Ruskin manifested delight at my appreciation of his rhubarb, and ringing for one of the servants, he said, 'Please tell Jackson I want him.' When Jackson came into the room his master said: 'I am very pleased to tell you. Jackson, that your first pulling of rhubarb is quite a success, and my friend here says that it is delicious.' When we had finished dining, a servant brought lighted candles into the room, which was almost dark, the windows being shaded by the dense, overhanging trees, although the sun had not yet gone down. After placing the candles, she was about to leave the room, when she suddenly stopped and said: 'Please, sir, there's a beautiful sunset sky just now over the Old Man.' Ruskin rose from his chair, and said: 'Thank you, Kate, for telling us,' then left the room. He returned soon. 'Yes,' he said to me, 'it is worth seeing. Come,' and he led the way upstairs to his bedroom. It was a glorious sight. The sun was sinking behind the Coniston Old Man mountain, and the mist and ripples on the lake were tinged with a crimson flush. We sat in the window recess without speaking a word till the sun went down behind the mountain."—Harper's Weekly. WHY ILLINOIS IS "SUCKER." Preacher at Banquet Says That Natives Believe Big Stories. In modern Egypt, which is in the southern part of Illinois, some of the native men gave a banquet in honor of an eminent politician of the ilk. There were many speeches in praise and panegyric of the chief guest. They were superlative to that degree which is the full tether of grammar. A young preacher present was moved thereby to get so far back as the comparative in a story. He said: "A short time ago I attended a banquet in Indiana at which were present many men from other states, and in turn the speakers of the occasion soared to the empyrean many times, and swept the skies and gathered stars in their glowing and extravagant eulogies upon the merits and virtues of their respective commonwealths. The Texan was eloquent about the 'Lone Star,' the Kentuckian became lurid concerning 'the dark and bloody ground,' the Ohioan went wild on 'buckeyes,' and one was moved to say something for Illinois. "We of Illinois," he said, 'frequently hear these beautiful boosts of other states, and we not only listen with bated breath and profound interest, but believe it all implicitly. The reason for this is that we are, individually and collectively, from Galena to Goshen and from Chicago to Cairo, as is well known throughout the civilized world, and in some parts of New Jersey, simply suckers.' "We at this table to-night," the young preacher concluded, "belleve all that has been said of our distinguished guest, as is becoming to true 'Suckers.'" Across the Hills. The mountains rise. And kiss the raveled, blue-gowned skies; The serried trees stand bare and bold, Walley leaves and yellow gold Robe richly every bosky dell. And Ceres sighing that her spell Has ended, waves a long farewell Across he hills The song birds flee To Southland's newer Arcady; The robin, bluebird and the thrush Have left behind the woodland's hush Like as the pensive, prayerful times. When scion trees is sacred chimes Have stilled to them's-echoed rhymes. Across the hills— All do we know The meaning of the splendid glow? The autumn—is it understood, That all is beautiful and good? The Master bids us be of beech, Hear the chimes and sky appear Across the hills—and He is near. —Frank Bates Flanner, in the Indianapolis News. Patriotic Boer Is Dead One of the three Boer prisoners who refused to take the oath of allegiance, and so were kept in Ceylon, is dead, and London Truth is of the opinion that the other two will not live much longer under the generous allowance of 50 cents a day they receive from the British government. COLORED WOMEN HER SOCIAL EQUALS. Mrs. Celia Parker Wooley, a noted club woman, authoress, lecturer and social figure, has organized a movement to give cultured colored women social regionition. The orgnazation which is made up of black and white women, gave a reception to black and white women at the residence of Mrs. Henry Mc Gee, a white wom an. "I consider Ida Wells Barnett, Elizabeth Davis and other colored women of culture the peers of my white friends" said Mrs. Wool ev. "Do I recieve colored women as social equals? Certainly if by social recognition you mean inviting them to my home to eat at the same table'and calling upon them and receiving their calls." The function was planed by the Frederic Douglass Centre, of which Mrs Wooley is founder and president. "My standard judgement in selecting friends and associates is that of individual fitness" she said "I am just as happy to entertain a colored lady of culture and refinement as I would be to entertain a white friend. It is entirely a matter of individual merit and qualification. Color does not enter into the consideration. I have investigated and know the restrictions the black man suffers in business and in civil life. The aim of the Frederio Douglass Centre is to remove these barriers We do not believe in he-ding classes or races of people together in one section or place. POPE SENDS SILVER MEDAL TO COLORED COOK Katie, the Negro cook for the board of lady managers at St. Louis, received a silver medal from Pope Pius. Katie was formly a slave in Virginia and is a devont Catho'ie. When Mgr. Francesco Tagiati, who brought the late pope'sjubilee gifts ta be exhibited at the Worlds Fair, was in St. Louis he called with Cardinal Satolli on the board of lady managers. There was a reception followed by a luncheon. and Katie cooked ii. Later the cardiual board of lady managers and included Katie who was thd only Catholic present. When Mgr. Tagiatia returned to Rome he remembered both Katie's cookery and eer piety, and procured a silver medal, which the pope himself blessed, and sent it to be delivered to Katie.—Boston Transcript. A bee that works only at night is found in the jungles of India. It is an unusually a large insect, the combs being often six feet long, four feet wide and from four to six innhes thick. W. N. Miller received a letter from his brother R. H. Miller and wife stating that they had arrived in Ogden Utah and will make that city their future home. R. H. had a good position awaiting his arrival. CELEBRATES 84th BIRTHDAY. John J. Smith Oldest Negro Free Mason in the United States John J. Smith the oldest Negro Freemason ans Ced Fellow in the Nnited States, celebrated his 84t birthday rece tly at his home 45 Wellesly park, Dorchester. He held an informal reception, which was attended by his relatives and immediate friends. Mr. Smith is the last surviving member and master of the African lodge of Boston, the first or ganized lodge of Negro Freemasons in this country. Mr. Smith takes much pride in the fact that he attended the convention which nominated Abraham Lincoln president. He has always been a Republican and has served a term in the common council and in the legislature. He was born in Virginia — Boston Herald. --- The next chapter of the story about the automobile wedding should describe the cooking of the wedding breakfast over a gasoline fire. John L. Sullivan should be more cautious in signing total abstinence pledges. One of them may turn up as a promissory note some day. Joaquin Miller, the 'Frisco poet, has struck a spouting oil well on his Texas property. If there is enough oil to last, of course Joaquin will quit spouting poetry. Major Delmar has broken another trotting record. There are so many kinds of trotting records that it is a poor horse which can't break one now and then. King Oscar of Sweden dances at 75 and enjoys it. The kings of Sweden used to make their subjects dance, but they didn't live to such a happy old age. By eating matches a Pittsburg parrot set her owner's house afire and was herself badly scorched. This seems to have been an all-around case of poetic justice. The wife of the successful man is always said to have been his inspiration and help; but the unsuccessful man is happier if he has a wife who is a consolation and a help. The Dutch have captured Batoebatze, killing 196 Achinese and losing three of their own men. One or two of the Achinese must have had something with which to shoot. The lady who got married after writing "The Memoirs of a Baby" has just become a mamma. Now she will have a chance to decide whether there ought to be a sequel or not. The latest is the "nothing" ball. It slows up at the plate and puzzles the batsman, who can make nothing out of it. Whereupon, it is conjectured, the exultant pitcher throws a nihil fit. Bad cooking, so a speaker told the Parents' club, is responsible for many divorces. Until the race is much more highly developed the surest way reach and hold a man is to feed him right. Wouldn't it be a mere waste of time for anybody on the outside to instigate a revolution in Central America, where revolutions flourish so luxuriously, whether there happens to be any instigating or not? A seat in the New York stock exchange has just been sold for $80,000. And yet the average man, if he had $80,000, would be quite content to retire from business and live on the interest of his money. That miraculous toad imbedded in solid rock has turned up once more—this time in the Renton (Wash.) coal mines. It is reported to have been so large that a bucket would hardly contain it. Probably inflated by its own scientific importance. NO 29 Hostess—Won't you please sing something, Mr. Screecher? Screecher—But there are so many people here I really— Hostess—That's just it. I want to get rid of some of them. All Else Forgot: No, Harold, you cannot tell the time of day by looking at clock-work stockings—but then one doesn't usually care anything about the time of day under those circumstances.—Atlanta Constitution. MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILWAY Being an adept at putting people to sleep, Jim Jeffries is going into the hotel business. An eastern editor has confessed that he is sick of telling lies. "Who follows in his train?" The czar's new baby has heaps of trouble before him. Incidentally, he has got to learn to talk Russian. A dressmakers' convention may have a great deal more interest for men than they are aware of at the time. The average Englishman, it is said, consumes 500 glasses of beer per annum. It may be true, but it looks frothy. The King of Italy is only a little more than four feet in height, but he probably feels as tall as a church steepe. The Empress Dowager of China has become an apostle of reform, but she reserves the right to do her own reforming. The New York Press wants a way patented to always get the last word in an argument. Easy. Give it to your opponent. Several lives were lost in the last South American revolution. This is a matter which should be inquired into by the police. Excessive automobiling produces the disease automania, so the doctors say. Excessive dodging produced autophobia long ago. Owing to the fact that the hazing season has opened it is necessary for the doctors to attend to their regular patients between times. The stork is certainly doing well by European royalty this year, which, by the way, must be encouraging to young Queen Wilhelmina. A Chicago poet is severely criticised for making "finish" rhyme with "spinach." But allowance should be made for the Chicago pronunciation. The apple crop of New Jersey this year is immense, and already the fancy of the New Jersey farmer lightly turns to thoughts of applejack. Canadian vegetarians outswam the meat eaters in a contest at Toronto a few days ago. As a rule, however, the best swimmers are fish eaters. The new treaty between Great Britain and Tibet authorizes Tibet to pay John Bull $2,500,000 for the privilege of letting him do exactly as he pleases. Ella Wheeler Wilcox says that no great success is ever achieved in this world by kicking. Didn't Ella ever see a football game? Or a burlesque show? At this season of the year it is only proper to expect the Mad Mullah to come forth at any moment with another of his justly celebrated outreaks. The Chicago woman who found a pink-eyed burglar in her pink boudoir will doubtless file an application for membership in the Municipal Art League THE SEARCHLIGHT. W. N. MILLER, Editor.

A great storm from the ocean goes showing o'er the hill, And there glory in it and terror on the wind. But the little roads of Cloonagh are the little winds of twilight And the little winds of twilight are dearer to my mind. The great waves of the Atlantic sweep storming on their way. Shining green and silver with the hid- Ancient Stenography. Shorthand was known to the ancients, though it is impossible to trace the system to its source. Ennius, the Roman poet, is said to have improved upon an already existing system. He was a friend of Scipio, and was born B. C. 239. Seneca also made it a hobby. Origen, the Greek Father and Mystic, who was born about 186, and was a voluminous writer, says, in the course of his commentary on St. John: "The absence of my shorthand writers prevents me from dictating my meditations." We are told, too, that he allowed shorthand writers to take down his extempore homilies. In the tenth century Greek and Roman stenography gradually died out, and the art did not revive until the beginning of the seventeenth century. During this long interval several systems of quick writing were evolved, such as that of Dr Timothy Bright in 1588, who had a separate sign for every word, and some of these almost rivaled shorthand in rapidity. A Mountain Theater. Probably the most novel theater in the world is that which was recently opened at Thale, in Germany. The theater is on the summit of a mountain and is surrounded on all sides by steep rocks; the seats for the audience are hewn out of the rock and accommodate 1,000 persons, and the stage, which is also hewn out of the rock, is 80 feet long by 54 feet wide. No artificial scenery is used, but the background is formed by the dense forest and by the outlines of the mountains in the distance. The dressing room for the actors is close at hand in the forest, but completely hidden from the audience. The theater is fully protected from the wind, and its acoustic properties are so excellent that every word is heard.—Montreal Herald. Remarkable Lightning Holes. Remarkable Lightning Holes. It is generally known that lightning striking the ground sometimes forms tubes lined with fused minerals, but comparatively few persons have ever seen these phenomena. Not long ago during a thunder storm in Essex, England, a ball of fire, which seemed to cast darts in all directions, was seen to descend from the clouds. There was a crashing explosion, and afterward, in an out-field, three distinct sets of holes, ranging from nine inches down to one inch in diameter, were found in the ground. They were perfectly circular, diminishing in size as they went deeper, and were cut through the yellow clay as clean as auger holes. Burmah Has Old Sacred Tree Burman has Old Sacred Tree. The oldest sacred tree in the world that has any authentic history is reputed to be the great Bhoo tree in Burmah. It has for the past twenty centuries been sacred to Buddha, the image that nearly all the Burmese worship, and no one is allowed to touch the trunk of this sacred tree. In the fall, when the leaves begin falling, pilgrims and curio hunters gather and carry away the leaves as relics. Piece of the First Monitor. In the public library at Lowell, Mass., is a huge piece of iron, about 12x24 in size and an inch in thickness. It has a history, as the following inscription relates: "Piece of the first Monitor, removed after the battle with the rebel steamer Merrimack in Hampton Roads, March 9, 1862. Presented to the City of Lowell by G. V. Fox, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, 1866." Students Too Fond of Cider. A farmer living in the vicinity of Waterville, Maine, drove onto the campus at Colby with several barrels of russet cider for sale. While he was delivering a small quantity in one of the students' rooms somebody made off with a full barrel from his stock. Search failed to reveal the plunder and the vender drove away in haste in order to save the remainder of his load. Codfish a Whisky Drinker A curious find was made while a fare of codfish was being dressed from the schooner Georgie Willard at Newburyport. It was a pint bottle corked in a cod's stomach. In the bottle was about a teaspoon of whisky. Would Tax Horse Racing.

Except the republic of Liberia the entire West African coast has been appropriated by European powers. In strictly coast possessions a rough estimate would place the countries in the following order: France, Edgland, Germany, Portugal, Spain and Belgium. With the exception of a small strip south of Morocco, the possessions of Spain consists of islands, and Belgium has very little coast, yet the possessions of both form a necessary part of West African trade interest. A scientist says that a constant diet of sour milk will prolong life. Welcome death, rather. Uncle Russell Sage manages to effect a great saving by having so few babies named for him. May there be no suspicion of permanency about Joseph Jefferson's latest retirement from the stage. Prof. Loeb's discoveries are a little too late to be of special interest to the Czar of Russia and the King of Italy. As King Peter was guarded by men with guns no one was impolite enough to say anything about the way he got the job. According to the Sun, bath rooms are a fad in Baltimore. Well, that's not quite so bad as if they were a novelty. The Argentine Republic trains its soldiers by teaching them to play foot ball. No wonder the army is so small down there. A New York magistrate has ruled that a man cannot be disorderly in a saloon. He is orderly, at least, so long as he orders. Chicago women have formed a club to promote the art of conversation. If the idea works some good listeners may be developed. AN OLD BACHELOR SAYS THAT— Women appear natural only when they don't try to. The homelier a girl is the more help she is to her mother. Women are seldom what they seem—and they ought to be glad of it. Some women mean what they don't say more than what they do say. Old Father Time has to face smokeless powder in his battles with women. The woman who hesitates at an auction sale sometimes wins by losing. Perhaps a girl is called a miss because she seldom hits anything she throws at. Women are naturally tender-hearted. No woman ever willfully stepped on a mouse. A married man tells me that the jaws of death are not in it, with the "jaws" of life. A woman has no business to get married until she can wash flannels so they won't shrink. Never doubt a girl's word when she says she can't sing. It's ten to one she is telling the truth. It is always difficult for a young man to understand why any other young man should fall in love with his sister. There are numerous women inventors, but not one of them has ever tried to invent a bridle that would curb the feminine tongue. WIT AND WISDOM. A lawyer often patronizes two bars. One pays out what the other pays in. If you cannot please yourself, you will never be able to please any one else. A kittenish young woman may jar you, but the kittenish old girl gives you a regular bump. A bachelor is never so nillariously happy as when listening to his hen-pecked friend's tale of woe. The man who borrows your wad is always first to forget that you ever had a speaking acquaintance. A woman will never talk over her matrimonial woes to another woman if she can find a man to play telephone receiver. The way of the transgressor is very like skating on thin ice. You may glide along all right, or you may land in a mighty cold berth. When a man calls himself a fool for having married, always insist that "you told him so." It ought to make him laugh himself into hysterics. At a recent club woman's meeting a widow referred to her dear departed as having "entered into rest ten years before." No doubt she told the truth.—Kate Thyson Marr. REFLECTIONS OF A SPINSTER. Woman's fear is that she will be forced to keep to what is man's conception of woman's sphere. At the age of 60 a man can wear a smaller hat than he could at 20. With the advent of baldness the swelling of the head goes down. Somehow we are always ready to suspect a tendency toward insanity in people who treat with levity those subjects which we consider very serious. The difference between the man and the woman who keep the end seat on the street car is that she does it as if it was her inalienable right, while he acts as if he were half ashamed.—Baltimore American. WHY DON'T YOU? Why don't you try to share the burden of that sorrowful one who works beside you? Is it because you are growing selfish? Why don't you send away that little gift you've been planning to send? More kind intentions never accomplish any good. Why don't you answer your friend's letter at once? It will have double value if written promptly, and will take no more time now than by and by. Why don't you take more pains to be self-sacrificing and loving in the everyday home life? Time is rapidly passing. Your dear ones will not be with you always. Why don't you speak out the encouraging words that you have in your thoughts? Unless you express them they are of no use to others. Why don't you make the promised visit to that invalid? She is looking for you day after day, and "lope deferred makes the heart sick." Why don't you create around you an atmosphere of happiness and helpfulness, so that all who come in touch with you may be made better? Is not this possible? The Class Mate. SOUTHERN REPRESENTA TION. The following is from the Kansas City Journal on the Southern Representative. Part of it we think is alright while other parts we think not. We publish the whole. Returns received from the South indicates that, as usual, only one party really made its appearance in the field, and that the vote was ridiculously small in porportion to the population. There are congressmen in the South who come to congress with a less vote in their districts than is cast in some of the country counties of the North. It means that the people of the South are not taking the slightest interists in the problems before the country. It means that the region is possessed of prejudices and hatreds which are placed ahead of all the duties of citizenship. It is a part of the country which is really not a part of our scheme of government. It regularly violates its own conceptions of wise economic and financial policy. It endangers the prosperity of the country sulleningly supporting what it believes to be wrong. It will be remembered that the Republican national platform contains a plank on this Southern question. This plank declared that "we favor such congressional action as shall determine whether by special discriminations the elec ric franchise in any state has been constitutionally limited, and, if such is the case we demand that representation in congress and in the electoral college shall be porportionately reduced as directed by the congress of the United States." It is undoubtful how much of this plank expressed the sincere intention of the Republican party, and how much of it must be regarded as merely a gallery play by he politicians. The delegates to the Republican convention knew as well as human thing can be known that the black men of the South have been disfranchised because they are black men. No congressional investigation can establish this fact any more thoroughly than it is already established. The demand for an investigation, therefore, looks very much like a movement to delay the settlement of the question, or to dodge it entirely. We believe that we speak the common sentiment of the North in saying that it was a mistake to give he ballot to the masses of Negro's of the of South. It probably would be a bigger mistake to attempt to force measure for the restoration of Negro sufferage. The country is wilting to accept as the best thing for the South the constitutional inhibition which remove the colored man as a political factor. But in granting this much to the South, Northern sentiment rebels against the injustice of having a Southern vote count for two or three times as much as Northern vote in the hall of legislation and the electoral college. It would not be so bad if the Southern people used their special privilege in a manner not threatening to the welfare of the nation. If the Southern people divided up politically as do the people of the North if they look to congress and the electoral college voting their real sentiments on the policies which may make or break the country—the situation would not be so dangerous and so exasperating. The South is admittedly guilty of the national crime of voting against the measures which it believes to be wis and necessary. If the rest of the country practiced the same system of voting against its best judgment, this republic would go to to quick that its dissolution would be a matter of less than a generation. The nation owes to itself the duty of curtailing this misused power up to limit permitted by the constitution. And we believe that if the Southern representation should be reduced until a Southern vote counted no more than a North ern vote the sectional difference would gradually disseapear with dissapearing power and the South would come at last into full fellow ship for the Union.

New Style of Locomotive An oil-burning engine with the cab on the front end has been in operation on the Pacific coast for some time, and locomotives of this construction have also been in use for several years on Italian railways. According to the Engineering News the Southern railway (of Italy) has recently added to its equipment some four-cylinder compounds of this type. They are of the ten-wheel class, with the cab in front of the firebox and the cylinders at the rear end. The coal is carried in bunkers at the side of the firebox (four tons capacity), and the tender has a cylindrical tank. While the landlady of the Bell Inn Totwell, England, was at dinner an aerolite crashed through the chimney spun around the room and exploded. Though the house was considerably damaged the landlady escaped. The Japanese cuisine does not include butchers' meat, bread, butter and potatoes.

The cylinders are all in a row behind the smokebox (at the trailing end of the frames) and all of them drive the middle driving axle. The arrangement of the cylinders and valves is peculiar. The two high-pressure cylinders are on one side and the steam distributor is controlled by a single piston valve and Walschaert valve gear. The two low-pressure cylinders are on the opposite side and are also served by a single piston valve and valve gear. The engine has six driving wheels. In front of the cab is a small platform with side steps. The inhabitants of malarious regins in india can now purchase quinine at practically cost price. It is put up in small packages by the government and sold at the rate of 1 cent for ten grains.
