cero and the bant clerk was selected to do the honors of the occasion. Unfortunately he forgot his glasses, and when he entered the room he could hardly recognize face He engaged his own particular girl for 8 dance in the course of the evening, and when the time came went and claimed, as he supposed, his partner. In the course of the dance he found out that he had made a mistake and was waltzing with the wrong person. He conducted his partner to a seat and went to make his apologies to the girl whom he had slighted. Really" said he to young woman, 'I beg your pardon for not claiming the last dance which you were kind enough to give me, but I made mistake, and thought until the dance was half over that was dancing with you. most humbly beg your pardon.
 ''Sir,' was the response, ''I made no en- gagement with you, and really unaccus- toned to be addressed by strangers in this way. I don't know you, and judging from your actions, I think I don't care to make your acquaintance"
 At this she turned suddenly upon her heel and walked off, leaving the bank clerk to realize that his eyesight had again played him false and he had again gotten the wrong woman.

meet the expenses MT. Dutton found him self with two kindergarten teachers and only one kindergarten school, and with fore sight that was commendable in view of the fact that school election was approaching he selected "the New Haven girl, " as he express ed it. New Haven girls more apt to have voting relatives around. We do not blame 'fthe New Haven grip for accepting the position offered her, and have no doubt that she is a very cstimable lady, but our sympathy and sense of justice went with the one who had done the work, established the school, twas a stranger within our gates" and without relatives or friends, and was then asked to resign, although the parents of every child ill the school protested against her removal. Reasons given by MT. Dutton for asking for her resignation were that the principals said she could not teach teachers" ;" The principals were indignant that they should be so misrepresented and one (we are informed) went to some of the members of the Board and contradicted MT. Dutton's assertions. There are many other facts con- nected with this subject. The parents Ghrough a committee) asked the Committee on Schools of the Board of Education to press the teacher to withdraw her resignation (which proper ssnse of self-respect and fear of MT. Dutton's prosecutions should she refuse to resign had caused her to send in). Although we believe she could not be induc
 
 intendent, we thought it only justice to ask her to remain, and teachers would then know they have right of appeal and pro- lection of which they do not now feel cer- tain. We suggested that she was entitled to a public examination to prove her ability to instruct teachers. The Committee on Schools endorsed her as lady and au excellent teaeher cf young children, and for many req sons we desired the endorsement, but she was not given the opportunity to prove herself more. We asked for "bread and received stene," kind of Blarney stone at that, although we wanted 1t, the endorsement. We trust the teachers will realize that their interest lies in support ing for members of the Board of Education those who seek to have justice done them and with those who fearlessly protest against the one man authority who would deprive them of their positions without examination or inquiry. We know of four cases of teach CTS whom MT. Dutton had threatened if they dared appeal to the Board of Education. Yet bfr. Dutton would pose as a martyr. The only trouble is that martyrs persecuted instead of prosecuting; so MT. Dutton is not martyr.

Bandit Frank James at Home.


 From Letter to St. Louis Post-Dispatchl Do you belong to any church, Mt. James,"
 ''No, sir. I was reared a Baptist but my inclinations now are towards the southern Methodists, probably because they were so kind to me when I was in jail"
 He said he spent his days in currying and looking after his horse when he has one at the farm, and when he has nothing else to do reads the newspapers and pays an occasional visit to town.
 It was easy to understand that Frank James yielded more possibly to the demands of his wrecked constitution when he sur rendered himself than to the demands of law and order He is in very poor health, and there seems from his appearance some foun- dation for the photographers statement that he is dying with consumption. He has not been well for several years. Last week he visited his mother in Clay county, and got back home yesterday complaining greatly of the physical torture he was enduring. His hair is thinning on the top of his head, his face is sallow and the bones show, his long nose is almost of the same hue with his yell Jewish mustache, and his hands and fingers are almost like those of skeleton. The veins that are seen in the hands are small lIdlI thICSlSlo Oi OluO. 4u lS AlOb easy lO DC- lieve that these hands for twenty years kept close companionship with deadly revolvers and that the swift movements of their fore fingers have cost probably hundred mem s lives It is not easy to think that this fad ing head, with it's thin silken crop of hair, is the one for which the State three years ago kept open a standing offer of $20,000; nor that this frame, POW so shrunk that the clothes almost flap against the limbs, has seen the bitterest hardships and faced the fiercest dangers. If it were not for the un- mistakable 'sbad eye" and the unusual de- vslopment of the lower facial features, one might easily mistake Frank James for 8 preacher suffering from heavy dose of ma laria; but the cold glitter of the desperado's eye is still there, the slow measured speech and the defiant set expression of the counte- nance which belongs to men accustomed to value others lives lightly they value their own. He looks no longer like the wrath of slaughter that he has been described He says he is only fortytwo, but his appearance makes him old US sixty. He is sick and dying man, and he needs just such rest as he finds under the cedar trees around the Ral- ston dwelling, with the comforting hand of his faithful, loving young wife, who was often with him in the saddle, to soothe his closing hours, and the bright face and glow ing eye of his little seven year old boy to cheer and tighten the dark moments that are gathering over him.

FREE TRADE IN IRELAND.

MT. Charles E. Endicott of Brookline, Mas sachusetts, has collected some facts con- corning the evil consequences of free trade in Ireland which are impressive. The periods in Ireland's history which he compares are those immediately preceding and succeeding the year 1900, in which year the union of Ireland with Great Britain was effected.
 Immediately after the establishment of a parliament in Dublin in 17S3 protective tariff was instituted in Ireland. The result of the system soon proved it's wisdom. Fac tories sprang up, industry thrived and skilled and pauper labor focksd thither from Europe, attracted by the growing pros perity of the country. During the eighteen years that followed the material advance ment of the island was wonderful. MT. En- dicott states the consequence of this prosper ity as follows: When England perceived that the protective tariff and the intelligence of the Irish people promised to render that nation formidable rival to Great Britain she endeavored to obstruct all further pro gress in Ireland, and not only to obstruct but to strangle and crush the industrial prosperity of that nation. After the most glaring bribery and treachery, England at last succeeded in establishing the infamous union of 1900. As soon as the venal com pact had been ratified, 8 revision of Ire lands protective tariff was decided upon, by which goods that Ireland exceeded England in manufacturing were charged with heavy duties when imported into England from Ireland but English articles of similar kind, but of an inferior quality, were admit ted into Ireland from England free, or at a comparatively low rate of duties.
 In twenty-one years England had suffi- cisntly strangled Irish industry to deprive her of danger as rival, and entire free trade was established between the two coun- tries. In Dublin where before free trade 30,000 workmen were employed the number had decreased to 10000. The cotton work CTS of Ireland which had numbered 30,O00, had decreased to 300. And so forth and so on No wonder the Irish have wanted to get out of Ireland into country like this.

Some time ago we announced that we had been large buyers of Flannels at the great Auction Sale held in New York, and that in due season we would place them on sale. Could the manufacturers have foreseen the turn the market would take, we think there would have been no auction sale. Wool has ad- vanced, is advancing, and will still more advance. Flannels have advanced. But having said we would give our custom CTS the advantage of our pur- chase we mean to do 1t. This week, next week and all through September, we shall offer Elan nels at prices 1t would simply be impossible to make if we had to purchase now.

shores of North America. Anyway, it will be worth all that it will cost the government to colonize him. If allowed to stay here, there must be something done to induce the Anglo-Saxon race to settle in the overpopu- lated negro States. In this way to overcome their influence in these States scatter the ne- gro over the United States, and in this way their influence will not be felt. Then they will rather decrease than increase. Get them out of their old roasting place and, like the Indians, they will finally become a very small part and parcel in the makeup of our government.
 The Georgia local option bill, which has become a law, provides that upon the appi cation for prohibition signed by one-tenth of the voters in any county the Ordinary shall hold an election to determine whether or not spurious liquors shall be sold in that county. If the result of the election shall be against the sale the Ordinary shall give notice once 8 week for four weeks, and the act shall take effect as soon as the result is ascertained, except as to the vested rights of persons whose annual license has not expired. If the result of the election should be sEfcr sale,'' no other election on the question shall be held in that county within less than two years. When any county votes ''against the sale'' no person shall sell or bar ter, directly or indirectly, or give away at his place of business, or furnish at any other public place, any alcohol, spirituous or malt liquors, or any other drinks which produce intoxication. Nothing in the bill is to pre- vent the manufacture, sale, and use of do- nestle wines or cider, or the sale of wines for sacramental purposes, provided they are not sold by barrooms at retail. Licensed druggists will not be prevented from furnish ing pure alcohol for medicinal or scientific purposes.
