There are husbands who are pretty,
There arc husbands who are witty,
There are husbands who in public are as srnil-
ing as the morn:
There are husbands who are healthy,
There are husbands who are wealthy,
But the real angelic husband-well, he's never
yet been bornl
Some for strength Of love are noted.
Who are really so devoted
That whene'er their wives are absent they are
, lonesome and forlorn;
And while now and then you'll find one
Who's a fairly good and kind one,
Get the real angelic husband--oh, he's never
yet been bornl
So the woman who Ia mated
To the man who may be rated
As pretty fair should cherish him forever and

For the real angelic creature,
Perfect, quite, in every feature,
10 has never been discovered, and he won't be.

to the fertile lands and sunny climate
OF the South. There is terrible suffer
ing every winter among the unfortunate
people who are sent, by railroad com
panies and emigration agencies. to
those frozen and inhospitable regions.
North Dakota, for instance, is zone
crop oountry''-whest alone, and full
crop of that only about once in five
years. There is no coal or timber, AMI
fuel and building material must be
brought long distances at heavy cost.
The arctic winter lasts five months.
The thermometers out there have been
marking from fifteen to thirty degrees
below zero for month past. Great
des.itution and hardship prevail every
winter among the hapless foreigners,
who are shipped out there by the con-
scienceless corporations that get paid
for carrying them. The Same wretched
conditions exist all over the bleak
wildernesses Of the far Northwest.
The TIMES, as sn exponent of this
region about the getaway to the
great South, halls with much en-
thusiasm the work OF this corpora
tion and believes that in line with
the proposed plan noticed last week
of booming Virginia farms the
eyes Of the outside world may be
turned in this direction, and the result be
widespread and profitable to all parties
concerned. The South needs these peo-
pie to-day, and has incalculable ad-
vantages to offer them. Within her
borders are millions Of acres OF land
that can be had at less than Government
prices, and that only await these sturdy,
Industrious, thrifty workers to become
blooming gardens.
The soil is fertile in every product of
the temperate zone-grains, grasses,
fruits, vegetables and textile fabrics.
There are boundless forests OF valuable
timber, as yet searece broken by wood
mans ak or saw, and the hills and
mountain sides are bursting out with
coal, iron, stono and nearly every other
useful mineral and metal. The climate
is n lid and healthful, and the means of
living are abundant and easy obtaina-
BILE. The labor necessary to exc out
the barest and hardest existence on the
blizzard-swept prairies OF Dakota or
Nebraska will speedily win indepe
ence and competence anywhere in the
South.
What may be said Of the South bears
with equal weight upon this section.
Here are fine farms, the best of coal
and iron mines and climate unsur.
passed by any spot in the country Let
the people of Virginia aid in this
colonization project and it will share
in the prosperity of the brighter days
which are dawning in the South.

"JANE" AND TIE BABY
Make Great Hit at tho Academy Last
Night.

Make Great Hit at tho Academy Last
Night.
One of Charles Frohmans coined v
companies presented Jane" to a fairly
good house at the Academy of Music
last night. AS curtain raiser the com
edietta, in one act, entitled "Chums, {"
was given. This is one Of the New
York Herald's prize plays and is SO in
tensely funny and bright that it served
as good mirth- provoker for the proper
appreciation of the finer work to follow.
The story OF Jane and the troupe are
too we'll known to need review. The
comedy is clean and is full OF bright,
witty dialogue and humorous situa-
tions, dealing with the ridiculous
cliLnaxes reached by the efforts of the
spendthrift nephew and his valet who,
in trying to cover up the transgressions
of the nephew mix, matters into a per-
feet labyrinth of ludicrous circum-
stances.
The notice in The TIMES of yesterday
asking the loan of 4 baby for the use OF
Jane" in the second act brought about
thirty responses, including two colored
babies. The first one to he presented
at The TINES Office as candidate for
stage honors was the sweet golden
haired little baby of Mrs. j. w. Beck
ham, which was the little tot to win so
much admiration and applause which
only several curtain risings could satisfy
in the tableau at the end of the second
act.

ing Of citizens to be held last night to
consider what action should be taken, if
any, upon the matter of the proposed
amendments to the city charter, may
have acted wisely in calling that meet
ing off and deciding to fix up the thing
privately" and then the petition legis-
lature upon the line this private in
vestigation shall deem expedient.
We call into question the grounds for
assuming that the meeting proposed
would be packed by the members of the
Council with their supporters who would
disregard the general desires of the pub.
lie in the matter.
Apparently there was little fear OF
any such course being taken. and it is
evident that the best opportunity for
the expression of the senti uent OF the
community could be obtained at such a
meeting if the public spirited citizens
who are interested in this matter, as
every one ought to be, would attend.
The work Of revising the proposed
amendments, that they may meet the
popular demand, can best &c done,
however, in the hands OF committee,
and II these citizens who now take upon
themselves the matter of this revision
think that in the memorial, which they
propose to draw up, they can satisfac-
torily voice this demand, then the mat
ter will arrive at the conclusion most
desired. The result will be awaited
with interest.

TO TURN THE PEOPLE SOUTHWARK

The National Immigration and Col
onlzatlon Association has been organ
lied in Washginton and incorporated
under the laws of Virginia with a capt.
tai stock Of $500, 0O9 with the authority
to Increase it, as the demands of the
company may require, to $4,000, 900.
The announced object of the company,
says the Washington Post, is to turn
immigration and capital to the Southern
States, 10 select and provide lands ana
homes for immigrants and to secure for
them every possible advantage and pro.
lection in the new regions to which
they 60.
The idea of such an organized move
ment originated with a woman, Nine.
Velasquez Board, and the preliminary
work has been actively going on for
many months. Pledges of earnest CO.
operation have come from hundreds of
leading Southern men in all the States
and Territories from Maryland and Vir.
GINA to Texas, New Mexico and Arizona.
Tens of thousands OF acres of land have
been rendered, accompanied by assur-
ances of personal assistance to intend
ng settlers, in number OF instances
including offers to build suitable houses
on the lands selected. The governors,
Immigration agents and other officials
OF numerous States have sent written
guarantees of interest and aid, and two
or three OF the European steamship
lines, largely engaged in bringing i'm.
migrants to America. have signiiied
through their representatives their
readiness to turn their vessels to any
Southern port or ports the company
may select.
One of the members OF tho associa-
ton, speaking Of its purposes, ,says the
time has come to change the course OF
the tide OF immigration from the fripid
wastes Of Dakota, Northern Minnesota.
