Platform of the Negro Farmers.

The Colored Farmers Alliance OF
Louisiana, composed OF colored men
who own or control farms, which they
are cultivating, held its annual meeting
ut Alex andria on the Fourth of July
Thirty delegates were present. Among
the principles of their organization is
set forth the declaration that one of its
objects is to elevate the colored people
of the United States by teaching them
to love their country and their homes;
to care more for their helpless, sick
and destitute; to labour earnestly for
the education of themselves and their
children, especially in agricultural
pursuits; to become better farmers and
laborers, and less wasteful in their
methods of living; to be more obedient
to civil law, and withdraw their atten-
ton from political partisan ship; t, be-
come better civilized and true husbands
and wives.
This embraces the wisest principles
of social and political economy, and if
lived up to will do mora to raise the
negroes to their highest destiny as citl-
zens than can all the glittering gener-
alities that have ever been the theme
of noisy defamation or OF demagogical
mouthings New Orleans Picayune.

Three Honored Ladies.

There are but three women in the
United States who wear the glittering
emblem OF the Odd Fellows Order OF
Chivalry. One of them is the wife of
Chevalier William Fitzpatrick, OF this
city. Mrs. Fitzpatrick is an estimable
lady and is held in high esteem by the
Masonic clans. She says she joined
Palestine Lodge of the Daughters of
the Rebekah six years ago. She pass
ed through all the offices of the lodge,
presiding for two succeeding terms as
Noble Grand. The emblem which
Mrs. Fitzpatrick prizes as dearly,
almost, as her life, is a modification of
the maltese cross. 1t is of white metal
bound with gold, and in the center is a
blood-red heart crowned with god.
Until two years ago the decoration was
conferred only on meritorious cheva-
Tiers of the order At that time, at
meeting of the grand lodge held in San
Francisco, two women received the de-
gree. Mrs. Fitzpatrick is the only wo-
man in the eastern states similarly
honored. She is of middle age. with a
kindly, motherly face and bright eyes.

AN ALWAYS WELCOME FACE.
The Head on the Standard Dollar
That Of a philadelphia Lady,

That CT a Philadelphia Lady,
Each scholar in the Philadelphia
kindergarten Training school who
owns Bland silver dollar possesses a
tirst-rate picture of his or her teacher.
The confirmation by the Board OF
Education of the selection OF Miss
Anne M. Williams as instructor of
philosophy and methods of kinder
garten training is the latest laurel in
the already fame bestrewn path OF
that LADY, whose classic features have
been stamped on millions OF silver
discs. Ten years ago Miss Williams
suddenly became famous when the
interesting announcement was made
that her face was the original of tho
Goddess of Liberty on that much
abused, much-admirod and equally as
much dislike1 Bland dollar.
The discovery was due to the efforts
OF a reporter who worked eighteen
months in tracing ont the original of
the goddess. The friends of Miss
Williams placed every conceivable
obstruction in the way, but unsuccess-
fully. The story OF Miss Williams
connection with the stamp upon the
coin is interesting. In the early part
of 1876 the Treasury Department
secured through communication wish
the Royal Mint of England the services
of clever young designer AMI en-
graver named George Morgan. Upon
his arrival in this country the young
engraver was located at the Philadel-
phia mint. and was assigned the task
of making design for new silver
dollar.
After months OF patient work hs
completed his design for the reverse
side of the coin, on which he rep 'esent-
the American eagle. His attention was
then turned to the other side and his
first inclination was to place on it a
fanciful head of the Goddess of Liber-
ty. But the young designer was too
much of a realist to be pleas I'd with a
mere work of fancy Finally he de-
termined that the held should be tls
representation of some American girl
and he forthwith diligently searched
for his beautious ideal. Through a
friend who had spoken to him of the
classic profile of Miss Williams face
he sought and obtained her acquaint-
ance. Miss Williams was with difficult
ty induced by her friends to pose be-
fore an artist and after five sittings the
design was completed. The young de-
signer declared that the profile was
the most perfect he had ever seen in
England or this country. Miss Will
liams, around whom this web of ro-
NANCE and fame clings, is very esti-
mable young lady. She resides with
her mother and aunt at 1923 Spring
Garden street. She is still pretty
blonde, with pearl-like complexion, is
slightly below the average hight and
possesses q graceful, aplomb figure.

He MUS COME AGAIN

The newspape are imaginative
enough tn make nat Hearst do
some very heavy work with his purse
strings. They say that the senator is
willing to pay any price up tn s3OO.oOO
for Sunol. the phenomenal tilly sold the
other day to- Mr.. Bonner of New York.
The California Senator is game enough
to offer that amoun of money for u
horse, yet it is hardly probable that his
longing for enato Stanford's phe-
nominal three-year-old tn
three hundred thousand dollars worth
of longing.
While there il no telling to what fab
ulous figures the price of these young
record breakers may climb. 1t is
doubtless true that mother year
will develop "a west-eOast horse
hat will spoil Sunols rec
ord, and il wouldn't he surprising if
the winner We're to come out of stock
which SenatOr Hearst OWNS this very
hour. Ii is true that the senator has
not had what might he styled II divi-
dend year with his stock for the season
just closed. but there are seasons in
store for successes. and Senator Hearst
realizes the fact as well AS any other
man.
The current theory is that Mr.. Bon
ner buys high-priced horses. provided
sIes "e StitCtis I"etl'itiiitl - liz
advertising there is i'm il. If that is the
gentleman's idea, we imagine that the
west coast will keep him pretty busy at
buying for the next few years. In that
view of the case. California can afford
to set aside its prejudice against letting
any good thing go east and bid Mr..
Bonner come again next year.
Probably Mr.. Bonner will have to
come. cau records are erowding
down toward the two-minute line ut u
pace that makes each new winner little
more han - passing %favorite. Only the
other day A.xtell was the proudest pro-
duet of the American turf. and he went
for $lOo,OOO. Less than IL fortnight
saw his record reduced by one and "a
half seconds and there il no telling
what the stanford lilly herself may be
able to show i'm the full maturity of her
powers.
1t is altogether probable that next
year will see all records thrown into the
shade, and Maud -. ~undoubted queen
as she is with her record of 2Osa,. may
live tn see the day then her splendid
achievement will be admired but Ia
deemed no longer "a phenomenal fact
on the turf.
