Tbs movement against indecent
theatrical posters seems to be gain
ing strength. In Milwaukee the
Mayor has officially notified all the
bill-posters Of the city that indecent
show paper viii be suppressed. Some
prominent actors have joined in the
fight against this practice, which
has been such potent agent in
bringing the theatrical profession
into disrepute. Certainly, if the
law with good reason prohibits vile
sounds on the street, it should not
be more lenient with vile sights on
the bulletin boards.

a Theme Coz the senate 70 s.udy.

A dispatch from Kansas City,
Missouri, to the New York Tribune
says that on Monday ga delegation
OF negroes from "HelI's Half Acre"
and 'BelIeyiew Hollow called upon
the chief of police and requested
permission to hold ghost dances.
They said that a Messiah had ap
peareS to them, and had ordered
them to dance and prepare for the
end Of the world, which would come
for the white folks in o short time,
and the Indians and negroes would
be left to control the eartss" Su-
perstitious outbursts, such ass,have
recently occurred among the NS
diaDs, says the Sun, and which the
dispatch describes as being threaten
cd among the negroes Of Kansas
City, are common among all saw
age people, and do not entirely cease
even in the brightest light of civil
lization. Barbarous religious Gus
toms and beliefs still hold a place
among some of the colored popula-
ton of the South, but it might have
been supposed that in territory SO
closely adjoining the enlightened
State represented by Senator ln-
gals all these relics of savage creeds
would have disappeared from the
colored mind. But it seems from
the account quoted, that the ne
groes of that section are still as
much nnder the bondage of degrad-
ing superstitions as those of South
Carolina or Mississippi. Yet it is
for the benefit of population con-
fessedly largely composed of those
who are still cnemancipated in
mind, and still the slaves of gross
ignorance and wild oredulitY, that
it is proposed to enact a measure
which shall make them the domi-
nant political class in one of the
richest and most rapidly developing
sections OF the country. For the
Indian ghost-dancers, who had
really something to set them dane
ing; the only force bill suggested
was the army, but for the coIored
gbost-dancers, for whom the gov
eminent has done everything except
to turn them white, Senator Hoar
is willing almost to 60 as far as the
Kansas City negroes, desire and
give them the earth, or at least that
part Of IL included in the South. If
the Indian population of the West
occupied the same numerical rele-
ton to the whites of that part of
the country that the negroes do to
the whites in the South, and if any
one were to propose to pass 8 force
bill for the benefit of the Indians,
SO that they may be protected in
their rights to scalp and shoot their
pale-face neighbors, those who sug.
gested it would run q good chance
of being converted into veritable
ghosts by the white people of the
threatened States. Yet the propo-
sition to subject the whites of the
South to domination which would
mean death to their material inter.
ests and the inevitable blighting of
intellectual and moral life in that
whole region is proclaimed as a pa
triotic. and just measure. In .
word, while the administration has
only bullets for the half-starved
Indian ghost-dancers, it proposes to
arm the well-fed colored ghost dan
GERS with additional ballots to en-
able them to conquer and hold the
South for the Repu blican party.

A Condemned Mans Nerve.

One of the coolest and most deliberate
attempts at suicide recorded is that of
Benjamin Hunter, the murderer of John
Armstrong, in Camden, N. j., in 1879
Hunter was confined in the ''murderers'
cage" in the county Jail under charge of
the death watch. He complained %
chilliness one night, and was permitted
to wrap his lower extremities in a
blanket. He had previously torn off the
rim Of his tin cup with his teeth, and
had it concealed in his trousers pocket.
Talking on commonplace topics to his
guard, Hunter secretly took the Jagged
strip of tin from his pocket, and, con-
cealing his movements with the blanket,
began cutting into an artery in his left
leg.
The blood spurted out in jets, and the
flow was concealed by Hunter spreading
the blanket out like skirt. He became
so weak that he was unable to continue
the conversation, and the guards sus-
picions were aroused. He made an ex-
animation, and found that the murderer
was bleeding to death. Physicians were
summoned, a ligature was applied and
Hunters life was saved. He was after
ward hanged, and it was pretty gener-
ally believed that he was dead from
fright and sedatives before the cord
frightened around his neck.-New York
Press.

Leather for Skirts.

I was asking pretty girl who has
been at the Grand hotel this summer
how she had kept the bottoms of her
skirts in such good order. For answer
she lifted up the skirt of the tweed
travelling dress and showed me a deep
facing of suede leather. She told me
that she had it put in all her street
gowns, as it keeps them in so much
neater condition than the old style braid.
A pretty, very serviceable early fall
gown | saw worn the other day was of
light cheviot, made with the English
skirt, and an open jacket opening over a
shirt of white silk The hem of the
skirt was turned up on the outside, and
a fold of brown silk braid inserted just
before stitching. The waist was finished
the same way. The shoes were of patent
leather, long, low heeled and narrow,
while the hat was rough brown straw,
trimmed with ribbons and birds.-New

THE VANDERBILT CHILDREN.
They Are Carefully Educated and Sys-
tematically Trained.

They Are Carefully Educated and Sys-
tematically Trained.
Although all the members of the Van
derbilt family entertain on magnificent
scale they never permit their children to
remain up late at night, are extremely
careful in their education, and, in a
word, are fitting them for life as well as
any mother or father could do. 1t is
one of the rules in all the houses of the
Vanderbilts that the children shall go to
bed early and rise early. The little boys
and girls are up before Z o'clock in the
morning. Their nurses Immediately
take charge of them, see that they are
properly bathed and dressed, and then
they go down to breakfast, which is
served at half-past o'clock
1t is an unpretentious meal, with
plenty of fresh milk, eggs, oatmeal and
bit of steak or a chop that will add
strength to their physique and color to
their cheeks. After breakfast there is
an hour of study. There is something
for these little ones to do at all times
during the day. They go through their
studies Systematically, and then, about
half-past 8, are taken out for walk.
They are allowed to romp in the streets
and in the parks to their hearts content
At II o'clock they are brought home,
and light luncheon of milk and bread
is served, after which there are more
studies-either French, German or draw
ing-and then another breathing spell;
it may be horseback riding, or a drive
out through the park and along the
country road.
Back they all come about o'clock,
and there is another hour of study, and
then they are through for the day. They
are allowed to do just as they please
until tea time, when after their meal
they spend pleasant hour or SO with
their fathers and mothers and others
who may drop in to call. Promptly at s
o'clock they are all in bed to sleep
soundly, and get up the next morning to
go through the same programme. So it
is not strange that all the children of the
Vanderbilt family are further in ad-
vance of their little friends in the mat
ter of education. For they study, study,
study all the time. They are all fond of
music and most of them can play on the
piano.
The girls are learning to play on the
harp, and the boys are famous among
their friends as violinists and banjo
players. If you were to see these chill
dren on the street you would not for
moment suspect that they were other than
children of parents in ordinary circum-
stances. They make no display at elabo-
rate dress. The eldest of Cornelius Van
derbilts daughters is dressed plainly in
little, pretty, cheap dresses without any
braid or ornamentation. She wears snug
fitting cloth jackets, land the little cap that
sits gracefully on her head could be du-
plicated for couple of dollars. La
