The Only Way to Help the Poor.

The Only Way to Help the Poor.
The problem of rendering help
to the unemployed, without doing
more harm than good, is as serious
a problem as any that contempt
raneOus civilization has to deal
with. Out of hundreds of me-
thods that have been proposed and
tried there is the smallest possible
percentage that have been success
full. There are no more cOnscien-
tious or we'll informed students of
this problem, then the Rev. DR..
Lyman Abbott and Mrs. Joseph
inc Shaw Lowell, of New York,
both of whom, out of their long
study and their wide experience,
write instructive articles for the
February number of the Forum. 1t
is remarkable that both these
writers. each treating the subject
Independently of the other, note
the fact that the best solution of
the problem of poverty, perhaps,
after all, the only solution, is
through the personal work of we'll
TODD people directed with discretion
toward the personal help Of partic-
ular families or individuals. If
every person in comfortable cir
cumstances were to make it part
of his duty to give proper aid and
personal encouragement to some
other person less fortunately stu
ated, the whole problem of poverty
would disappear-eXcept, of course,
that portion of it which nothing
can cure, the portion that has its
origin in a helpless breakdown Of
character or of health, or both.

THE JUDGMENT AFFIRMED.
The Raley-Jones Mandamus Suit
Decided in the Supreme Court.

Inc haley-JOneS mduudmuS oulG
Decided in the Supreme Court.
The judgment in the mandamus
suit Of James Raley VS.. Judge f.
GrifT Jones was affirmed in the
Court of Civil Appeals this morn
ing. The opinion of the court is
that "if a writ of mandamus lies in
any case in advance of the failure
of the justice to comply with the
statute regulating appeals from his
court on the first day of the sec
ond term after the appeal is
taken Ga question is not necessary
to a decision of the case from
the rules we entertain of the
petition) it should not be
granted, upon a petition which
( ills to aver that it was practicable
for the justice to have prepared
and sent up the transcript by or
before the time the writ is applied
for. The mere lapse of time, not in
excess of the time allowed by law
for that purpose, does not present
allirmatively any matter showing
a default on the part of the officer,
and agreeably to the presumption
that officers are presumed to do
their duty, the court would con-
clude, in such a case, that the
transcript had not been filed, on
account Of circumstances that rem
dered it's filing impracticable.
Mandamus is an ordinary remedy,
and the party that invOkes
it must, before he is entitled to
even the alternate writ, allege
matters which prima faciae emit
tie him to the remedy"
Other opinions were rendered as
follows in the Fourth Court Of
Civil Appeals this morning:
Richard Handel VS.. Allan Mac
donell, administrator, from Webb !;
reversed and rendered.
The city of Ysleta VS.. NJ. Loewen-
stein, from FL Paso; affirmed.

Shall We Paw Toll to ENGLAND

The Nicaragua Canal must and
will become a subject of increasing
public Importance, for the time is
close at hand when a definite de-
cision must be reached as to wheth-
er we shall build it and get the
commercial results of it--not to
speak of the political and possible
military advantages-or whether
it shall be built by English influ-
ence and English money. In the
latter event, American commerce
would pay toll to foreign capital and
the unparalleled opportunity given
by nature for our natural national
development would be utilized by
foreign power. This subject
has been discussed so many times
and for so long period, and so
many failures have been made of
it, that it is doubly difficult now
to concentrate attention on it as at
tention must be concentrated II
the last opportunity we are likely
to have is not soon to pass from
our hands. A clear statement of
this state of affairs, a thorough
study of the treaties bearing on it
ana an earnest appeal is made in
the February number Of the Forum
by Mr.. Courtenay De Kalb, who
has for many years made person
al study of the problem in all its
bearings.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA, November l.
Passenger train No. 8, of the Kansas
City, Memphis and Birmingham rail-
road was held up at one o'clock this
morning, few miles east Of New AL
bany, Miss, by gang of three masked
men, and the express car looted OF It's
contents. Conductor w. b. Leonard.
who was in charge OF the train, got
into Birmingham at six o'clock this
morning, and from him the facts were
learned. He said:
My train pulled out of New Albany
about l o'clock this morning. Shortly
after getting under full Roadway the
train began TO slack up, and was soon
at a standStil. AS l afterward dis
covered three masked meu had boarded
the tender OF the engine at New Al
bany, and covered Engineer Campbell
and Fireman Alexander with pistols
and compelled them TO stop a. desiR-
mated point in the woods few miles
east OF New Albany. When the train
stopped was ia the baggage car.
Il went to the side door aud opened
ii aud opened it only to be greeted by
several pistol shots from one of the rob-
bers. l showed the door shut, but turn
ing around saw two of the robbers al
ready In the baggage car with pistols
covering me. The engineer and firemen
were made to dismount and an unsuc-
cessful attempt was made to uncoup' Q
the engine. Express Messenger Jean
cites car was forced open, the robbers
covering me with pistols all the
time and we were forced to give
up the contents OF the safe. Putting
the booty into a bag the robbers backed
off into the woods with their pistols
still pointed at us aud disappeared In
the darkness. We did not see their
faces at any time"
Officers of the Southern Express Com
pany gave ii out that only lot Of cheap
jewelry and vouchers constituted the
robbers booty. The general belief is
that the robbers were amateurs,
although they did things in shape.
