VALIDITY OF THE BONDS
0ECRETARY CARLISLE REAS-
0URES PURCaAsERs.
He Saws He HAa Full Authority
To Issue Bonds NO Matter what
He MAY Intend To DO with The
Money. Received Therefor.

NEW YORK, Ian. 29,-John G. Carlisle,
secretary Of the treasury, was at the
Fifth avenue hotel in this city last night.
As to his authority to issue bonds he
said:
"The judiciary committee Of the House
examined and reported upon this same
question during the fifty-second Congress
and it then conceded that the authority
existed under the act of 1875. The ques.
ton as to the authority Of the secretary
OF the treasury to USE the money in any
particular manner. or for any particular
purpose. is wholly distinct from the
question as to his authority to issue and
sell the bonds. No matter what he may
do with the money. the validity OF the
bonds will not be affected and there is,
therefore, no reason why anyone should
hesitate to invest in these securities on
the ground that the proceeds might be
possibly used for other than redemption
purposes"

The Tarin-The Bond Issue-Th,
Income Tax BILL

InCOme Tax Bill
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 29.-Petitions
against the Wilson tariff bill presented
in the Senate this morning were very
numerous and were from all parts of the
country.
A resolution was offered by Stewart
declaring it to be the sense of the Senate
that the Secretary of the Treasury has
no legal authority to issue and sell bonds
as proposed. The Senate, he said, ought
at least to express its opinion on the
subject; and he gave notice that he
would ask action on his resolution to-
morrow. The Hawaiian resolutions
were taken up and Teller addressed the
Senate.
At Ills the House went into com.
mittee OF the whole on the income tax
bill. McMillin offered it as an amend.
ment to the tariff bill and the amend
ment was read in full, and the PROPOSE.
ton to annex It to the tariff bill dis.

Wrestling With English.

All strange tongues hold pitfalls, but
the English language seems to be rather
more provided with traps for the un-
wary than almost any other. Vassar
girls had a private laugh not long ago at
the eulogy bestowed bya French gentle
man whose admiration for the young un-
dergraduates considerably exceeded his
ability to speak it in English. He had
met the young women at one or twoda q
festivities and was sufficiently impressed,
but when, at an evening reception, they
burst upon him in the bravery Of full
dress the admiring Gaul felt at once the
handicaps of his vocabulary. 81 cannot
say" he confded to one Of his hosts,
chow beautiful the young ladies appear
in their nightdresses."-Her Point OF
View in New York Times.

SHADES OF BLACK SKIN.
A Journey From the Land of Palefaces and
Back Again.

Accuracy From the Land of Palefaces and
Back Again.
A familiar human example viii make
this general mnddliness and uncertainty
of nature realszabIe to- every one. # we
see a negro in the streets Of London, we
Immensely recognize the broad differ
ence thst marksshim OFF from the com
monsn1ass of whlte men bywhom he is
surrounded But thatzof eourses only
because we take am individual Instance.
We say quite Dramatically: .'This man
is black, thick Tipped, fat nosed. Icall
him a negro. These other men are white,
thin Tipped, sharp nosed. I call them Eu-
ropeans."
Quite so. That is true relatively to
the small area and restricted number Of
cases you have then andthere examined.
But now suppose you go OH to the Sou
dan and start from thence down the Nile
through Nubia to Alexandra. At first
on your way you would see few but
thoroughly negroid faces-black skins,
thick lips, fat noses, ETC., according to
sample. As you moved northward into
Egypt, however, you would soon. begin
to find that, while the skin remained IS
blacko f nearly as black as ever, the fea-
lures were tending slowly on the aver
age to Europeanize.
Yet there would be nowhere q spot
where you could say definitely, "Heee I
leave behind me the Nuhian type and az
rive At tie Egyptian" Never even could
yon pckout three or, fourmen quitecer-
family from a group on some riverside
wharf overshadowed by doum palms
and say on the evidence Of skin and fea-
lures alone, s'These men are Soudanese,
and the remainder are Nubiansn
Then, If you went ON still through Si-
mai and Palestine-the regular eastern
tour-you would find at each step the
tints getting lighter and the faces more
Semitic. Passing farther through Con-
stantinople, Athens, south Italy, you
would observeat each change a lighter
complexion and more European style,
till at last, as you crossed Provence and
approached@centra France, you would
arrive pretty well at the familiar Eng
Esh type Of face and feature.-Cornhlu

After the recent experience IN trying

For this reason. the Press and Ban
