THE RIGHTS OF NEGROES.

Negroes can get their rights in at least
one State, and that State is Michigan. Two
negroes went into Detroit restaurant, sat
down at one of the tables and ordered a
meal. The owner told them that he would
not serve them there, but invited them to
the other side of the room, where the
tables were not covered and were other
wise less desirable. When they demurred
he offered to cover and furnish the tables
just as they were on the first side and serve
the guests in the same manner as they
would be served on that side. This they
refused and withdrew. They brought a
suit for damages, and the jury decided for
the defendant, taking the view that
separation was not in itself un-
lawful discrimination. The Supreme
court, however, didn't agree with this and
said: The fault of this construction is
that it permits discrimination on ac-
account of color alone, which cannot be
made under the new law with any justice.
In Michigan there must and is an absolute
unconditional equality of white and color
| ed men before the law. The white man
can have no rights or privileges under the
law that are denied to the black man.
Socially people may do as they please with
in the law, and whites may associate to-
gether, as may blacks, and exclude whom
they please from their dwellings and pri-
vate grounds But there can be no separ-
alton in public places between people Oh
account of their color alone which the
law will sanction.
This is the Civil Rights law of Michigan
1t is evident that there need be no further
misunderstanding of it, and there will
probably be few attempts to evade it.

THE STORY or WHITLEY RUPP.
one Case where n Gamblers Supersti-
tfons Were Verified.

1t is one of the superstitions of gam
bier that he must relieve distress. With
the hand of indulgence and suffering, ex-
tended a Thousand times day he would be
compelled to load it with silver of his
wealth, but it is popular belief that vast
losses would attend the free-hearted giver
in case his money impaired in charity was
played against himself. There are many
stories in illustration of this.
Whitley Rupp, one time proprietor of a
prosperous faro bank in Wichita, one after
noon was descending the stairs which led
TO the lair of his particular tiger, when a
broken sport named Chenault sought aims
at his hands. Rupp was in good humor.
His bank had piled mp the inSots the night
before; he had Just eaten n comfortable
dinner, and he paused long enough to give
Chenault $50. Chenault, an inveterate
gamester himself, ate briefly and sparingly,
and then hastened back to Rupp's bank
with the balance and began TO play. Had
the dealers known the source of his wealth,
they would have barred him. Chenault
won again and again. He then divided his
possessions among several of his cronies
| looking IN. There was Tom Arnold, who
now deals monte in Ell PasO; Sam Arnold
who was subsequently shot to death in Ok

blithely showed the money about Rupp's
layout in a way to insure the widest -act-

Rupp was absent only an hour and thir.

stopped the play of Chenault and his coter-

ssCONSOLIDATI0N.,, ),

sCONSOLIDAT1ON.
Those who favor the consolidation of the
city and town governments of New Haven
made new start last evening, and it is but
fair to say that the start is more promis-
ing one than the other starts were. The
meeting was well attended, and being COM
posed entirely of consolidationists was of
course harmonious. The only business
done was the passing of resolution direct
ing the chairman to appoint a committee
to do anything that may be necessary to
further the cause.
What this committee may do remains to
be seen. 1t will have to work hard to arouse
much real interest in it's plan, and it may
not succeed in arousing much -opposi-
ton. 1t will perhaps produce more con-
sistent bill than the other committee did;
and it is directed to be friendly with the
school district. Probably the school dis
trict will have something to-say about this.
Before this committee reports it will not
be useful to discuss it's probable action.
There seems to be disposition on the
part of the consolidationists to treat the
suburban people more fairly than they
once did, and to this extent they have
made gain. But there are many citizens
of New Haven who still think, with the
Hartford Courant and other defenders OF
the town, that fsthe Connecticut town is q
precious political entity, and to abolish il
would be grave error from social and
political point of view" z

In recent letter to President Wagner of
Morgan college, one of the leading colored
educational institutions of Baltimore, Judge
Hugh L. Bond, of the United States Circuit
court, speaks his mind plainly in regard to
the action of the Maryland law school in
refusing any longer to receive colored stu
dents, but frankly advises against the open
ing of law school in connection with
Morgan college. He deprecates the effort
to call the colored youth of the State away
from manual labor, and says that If they
want to study law there is no need for a
separate law school, as the Maryland uni
versity is bound by its charter to receive
any colored man who has the necessary
qualifications.

Aluminium may soon be very cheap. A
South Carolina lawyer thinks he can pro-
duce aluminium from kaolin at a cost of
$3.50 per ton. As the present cost is nearer
$3.50 per pound, the drop is very consider
able. Aiken county, South Carolina,
abounds in kaolin and it is reported that
$500, 900 has already been offered there for
location for an aluminium plant.
