"a well-known farmer living in the
vicinity Of Kirkwood, In Wilmington
to-day, says the Rbsenos OF the male
portion Of the negro population Of the
neighborhood has been quite DotioeA-
BILE for two or three days past. He took
q peep into the City Hall this morning
and there beheld three colored men VINO
live In houses close by his farm. They
were waiting to have their names placed
on the assessment lists OF Wilmington
hundred. Addressing one Of the ne
groes, the gentleman asked: What are
eeesed,' was the reply. why, do sou
want to be assessed In WilDington?'
continued the farmer. why don't you
know when election time comes around
there are some tives and tens flying
about In Wilmington aud l want OIL Q
OF them?' replied the negro. 1t is post
lively stated that the negro is assessed
in Penoader hundrej, where he lives in
small house with his family and hAI
resided there for four or Eve years"

Teaching hY Examine.

Yes, brother, you should teach your
child obodience; teach him that your
will and word is law, and insiill int
his mind that profound reverence for
law which every citizen should feel.
And il you will just keep on lying a
little to the assessor about the value of
your property in order to evade certain
tax laws, and violate the law about
ri ling on the platform every time you
ride on street-oar, and defy the or
dinances respecting the ash-barrels md
snow on your sidewalk every time you
have an opportunity, and keep on
breaking every municipal and State
law that it isn't convenient for you to
obey, the boys reverence for the law
will grow deeper every year, until it
will be SO deep that he can't reach
down to it when he wants to use it.
The way to teach boy obedience is to
be Just as disobedient as you can be.
Just sit down now and think; try to
count up how many State laws and
municipal ordinances you violated yes
terday. Then call your children around
you and tell them If they ever disobey
you in the slightest particular you'll
break every back in the camp.-Bur-

Men and women go to the theater TO
see play. The women sit through il
all, the men rise after each act, go out
to drink or smoke. Being selfish, they
do as they please, and their pleasure
takes into account not at all the com
fort, the convenience, the entertain
ment of the ladies whose escorts they
are. AS a matter of fact, to eight women
in every ten the escort pays no more at
tention than the coachman who drives
her home after the performance. The
lobbies of these theaters are filled ut
the end of each act by smokers. II you
want TO have real good, solid fun, stand
at the door and watch them. Look at
the dude as he puts, before he reaches
the lobby, q cigarette in his mouth,
and, lest he should lose a moment,
feels in his pocket for a match. See
them as they stand with their hands in
their pockets, putting away at these
little things.
1t is an interesting study.
They are the fathers of the future
they are the men upon whose broad
shoulders the destinies of the republic
are to rest. They are the sons of the
nation to whom, in her hour of trouble,
the country will turn and lay her weary
head upon their magnifcently devel-
oped breasts.
