In this world there are q certain class
OF individuals who roam about with q
chip on their shoulders, daring others to
knock it off just for the luxury Of in
dulging in a first class quarrel. To the
gentle hammered, sweet dispositioned
ones this seems a very questionable sort
OF enjoyment, yet to some q wordy war
o. a full fedged feud constitutes the
chief excitement of their lives.
These people always have a quarrel on
hand. If 1t isn't a family affair, then
outsiders must suffer. They are quick
TO take offense, both in public and
private. and have no scruples about ex-
pressing themselves ON paper when they
haven't chance to do 80 verbally. It Is
this penchant for writing letters that
helps to keep them continually in hot
water, as the black and white characters
r decided evidence against them even
after their anger has had time to cool.
Now, if there were any sense In this
sort of conduct, there would be some ex.
cuse for it. but there isn't, and, more
over, it makes you doubly unhappy to be
always on the outs with some one. You
may pretend not to care, but you do just
the same, and though pride and temper
keep your spirits up for a time in your
secret heart you wish you had not beer
| quite so ready to quarrel.-New York
Commercial Advertiser.

bad Manners In the Use of Words.

The laws Ct common courtesy hold in
the use Of W rds as well as dishes. As
unconsciously as You turn the handle of
the pitcher IL passing it should you turn
the handle of your sentence and present
your thong; right side up. You would
not toss the look you are asked for across
the floor an' leave your brother to pick
it up. Why toss your answer in similar
hit Or miss rudeness?
It is not T 7eness of to which
I refer, but t re rudeness of not making
your sentence at least neat. The mos,
admirable and affectionate of persons
will fill your ears with a thousand need.
less words that do but conceal their
meaning, or make some noncommittai
reply,which forces you to repeat your
question.
A very large part of the misunder
standings in life, with all the sin and
sorrow resultant. is traceable to thi:
same c~arelessness, this stupidity, thess
inexcusably bad manners, in the use Of
words.-Cha-lotte P. Stetson in KATE

The Ohio Platform Will Conform co
the Presidents Message.
CINCINNATI, Aug. S.-The great week
for the Democracy Of Ohio begins with
delightfully."- cool weather. promising
comfort to the 800 delegates who win
assemble in convention on Wednesday.
But even If the thermometer should
rise before that time they will find
ample space in the cool corridors and
the great auditorium of Music Hall for
the comfortable transaction of their
business. Coming as this convention
does, almost coincident with. the
meeting of congress and its ex-
pected revelation of the policy of the
administration upon at least the finan-
cial situation. there 10 an absence of
speculation concerning the features of
the platform to be announced.
Must Conform to the Message.
There is a general understanding that
the platform must conform to the tone
OF the presidents message, and as the
latter hes precedence of publicity
the conformation may easily be
accomplished. The same facts
embarass to some extent the
canvas for governor. If the
tariff feature of the message should not
come fully up to the Chicago platform
on that subject, then it would seem bad
policy to put the author Of the plank
Mr.. Larry L. Neal, at the head of the
ticket. As the matter now stands Mr.
Neal has the lions share of support
with G. w. Baker of this city and Col
w. A. Taylor OF Columbus apparently
next in favor. What changes may b.
wrought by circumstances and by con
sultation. no one knows.
1t is certain that the convention viii
be most warmly welcomed, and tina
the delegates, and especially tn,
brethren OF the press. viii be most hos
pitably entertained.

He DIED YOUNG.
Clyde n. Thompson Goes the Way Of All
The Earth-Fa From Home But
in the Midst of Friends.

Il was with much sorrow that those
who knew Clyde "a. Thompson, heard
this morning Of his. death. They were
led to believe yesterday from the favor
able reports Of his improved condition
that he had passed the crisis and taken
a turn for renewed health. He had
been chserful and easy all day but about
half past six hemorrhage suddenly and
violently set in and by ten O'Clock from
loss Of blood Of, other aus the heart
suddenly failed TO act and he sank in
stantly. His trouble was typhoid fever.
He had been sick nearly three weeks.
He was Just twenty years old at the time
he was taken down i'll.
Mr.. Thompson came here from Clark's
Mills, New York state. about three
months ago to fill the position Of jewell
or and matchmaker to Frank Smith,
and has filed the situation very accept
ably. He was a very quiet, steady, in
dustrious young man, little given to
muscular recreation and was, ons
quently, in a very weak state of body to
resist the attack OF an insiduous disease
like typhoid. His father, who had once
spent a year in Dakota and was saved
thereby from a consumptive's grave, was
DESTROYS that the son should come out
here also, as he considered him in the
grip OF that fatal disease. All goes to
explain how susceptible he was to attack
aud how little resistance he could bring
against SO deadly an enemy. Although
a young man Of excellent moral char
acter, he was not allied with any relig
ious organization here and said he die
not feel preparedto die; but this was inc
doubt the best OF evidence that had hs
lived, he would have been more active
in his spiritual duties.
His aunt, Miss Nina Mansfield, arriv
ed from New York state Saturday even
ing and was with him up to the time .
his death. He had found a pleasan'
home in the midst Of friends at the resi-
dence OF Mrs. j. T. johnson and Mis-
Mansfield herself made special mention
to yonr reporter of the exceeding kind
ness OF everyone here. A short funera

A Cheeky Customer.

"Ihad a unique but tantalizing expe-

works in a Kansas City hair store. "A
nan came into our place and asked to
look at some false boards. Of course he
wa accommodated, and he spent over
an hour going over the lot, trying them
on and examining himself in q glass. He
took up my time. and after he had ex-
amined everything in that line in the

Amsria.n Puhll. m.nn.r.

A grave criticism OF American public
manners comes from young southerner
who has spent many years in Europe snd
South America He was walking down
Pennsylvania avenue when the sad prooes-
sion from the White House went TO the
train. The curbstone was fringed with \
curious multitude. which stood and gzzed
without displaying the slightest sign Of
Of sympathy or respect. Partly from habit,
partly for examples sake, this foreign bred
American lifted his hat as the hearse
passed. Immediately attention was trans
ferred from the line of carriages to the man
who would do 80 extraordinary a thing in
public place For moment he was the
center Of observation for a block around;
then the main event OF the day again
claimed the eyes OF the crowd.
"A row of animals could have stood and
stared as they did" exclaimed the wrath
full gentleman In telling the incident. III
we pretend to be human we might as well
take some trouble to justify the olaim."-

AUGUSTA, Ga, Dec. 27.-The negro
editors of Georgia have organized a
state press association here. Twelve pa
pers were represented at the meeting.
The editors issued an address dis
couraging immigration and urging
negroes to work industriously with
renewed vigor for the advancement of
the race, and advising the cultivation of
friendly feeling with the white neigh
bors. 1t points with pride to the public
school system of Georgia, and extends
to Governor Northen and State School
Commissioner Bradwell sincere thanks
for their liberal views relating to the ex-
tension Of education among negroes.
Political bossismi is opposed, whether by
whites or negroes, and the party will be
supported that advocates recognition
of negroes in public Office. Temper
ance. sobriety and frugality are
especially recommended. Lynch law,
Jim Crow" cars and separate
coaches for the races are denounced,
and the abolition of the state convict
lease system is demanded. Finally the
address suggests that the word negro
be given preference over "colored" and
that it be spelled with a capital IN"
