YOUR SECRET.

Why did you place this secret in my hand.
did not crave the story OF your crime
dream about 1t In the solemn night,
And, waking, see ito horror all the time.
] bind 1t with fast pinions to my heart,
And feel 1t writhing there the whole day long.
/ would that you had chosen someone else.
Before you came my life was full Of song;
Was full OF gladest song and sunshine gay,
And skies were blue as gentian blossoms are
But now, with this cloud closing round my life,
Each ray of sunshine seems livid scar.
Have you no fear that 1t will leap away
From my safe keeping to another's hold!
To one less loyal to the mad caprice
Which made you tell it, indiscrect and bold
The knowledge OF your deed will bind us two
With strong, unDroken fetters for all time,
And il there were an after life, 'twould tinge
Our fates through all eternity with crime.

about the degradation of the negro that
we are apt to fancy him greatly the in
ferior of the s.noble red man." In GER
tain physical characters the negro of
the Soudan and the Hottentot and the
Bushmen of South Africa are below the
Indian, but the first of these are far
more civilized than any North Ameri-
ca Indians, save those of Mexico and
Peru; and the great Bantn race, to
which the Zulus and the natives of the
Congo and ZambeZi basins belong, is
composed of finely built and intelligent
men. Negro and Bantu alike are not
wild nomads, living poorly on what
the soil affords, as do the Somali of
Eastern Africa. and the tribes of the
Sahara, AS well As large part of the
natives of the Americas, but are culti-
vators of the soil. living in villages that
are often neat and homelike to look at.
The population of Africa even now is
more than twice that of the two Ameri-
cas-, but the country is cursed with
constant war, with domestic slavery
and with foreign traffic in slaves. The
future of Africa is in the hands of the
white races. The natives are ready to
trade. and have products of value to
exchange. All that is needed to estab-
,,;sb with them relations beneficial to
white a I'D black is consistency and fair.

An Economical Mans Experience.

Chicago Times,
Horace H Buell., of Chicago, not hav-
ing sufficient money to buy ticket,
conceived scheme of being sent as
express matter 20 Manhatten, Kansas,
and was successful. He arranged box
SO that he could sit in it, and could. if
necessary, open it and release himself.
He got into his box and was placed on
board the cars. He left Chicago last
Thursday, and arrived in Manhattan
shortly after midnight on Saturday
morning, and was dumped out on the
platform with other freight. His ex-
pectation was that he could escape in
the darkness, but the box was set down
bottomside up, with the lid against the
platform, and his scheme was frustrated.
When he was rolled into the express Of
flee at the depot still worse misfortune
attended him, for the box was SO placed
that he stood on his head. The clerk
then began checking up. usiug the box
for table. Buell. stood as long as he
could and then made his presence
known, greatly frightening the agent,
who was going to shoot into the box.
At length. however they released him.
He paid the express charges, 1925. A
ticket would have cost Sl7.54.
