A little girl in Pennsylvania town,
in saying her prayers the other night,
was told to pray for her father and
mother, who were both very i'll, and
for one of the servants, who had lost
her husband. She faithfully did as she
was told, and then, impressed with the
dreary condition of things, added on
her own account: And now, oh God,
take good care of Yourself, for if any
thing should happen TO You we should
all go to pieces. Amen."-N. Y. Times.

Speaking Of Women.

The sad case of Miss Rose Norreys is at
tracing considerable attention in Eng
land just at present. The young actress
was born in this country, but achieved her
success in England, where she made a
charming Arthur in king John" produced
at the Crystal Palace by Mr. Tree, and
afterward played Nora in "A Dolls House.
1t was in the title role OF The Case of
Rebellious Susan" that she first broke
down, disappearing mysteriously. and was
found early one morning in the streets in
delirious condition after having spei< the
night in the park. She was afterward re-
moved TO an asylum, where she is now de-
tained, but the question arises how She
is 10 live when she regains her mind. as
she has no money or relatives in England.

1t may be doubted whether the attack

truth staied by Sackyille West in the famous

QUEEN ISABEL TO cAMpos.

Old and exiled Queen Isabel. of Spain, has
broken away from the indeseribable- -coterie
by whom she is surrounded in Paris, to
write to Gen. Campos, commander of the
Spanish forces i'll Cuba, to say that her
heart accompanies him. and that she
tasks God to protect and TO give him vic
tory"
The message from the aged but still
giddy and luxurious ex-queen is from an
appropriate source. Much of the munifi-
cent income whichh as been spent in Partisan
orgies that haze made. Isabel notorious
throughout the world, has been earned by
the expenditure of Cuban blood and muscle.
Her sympathy has ealmoney value.
The message of the ex>queen will find a
ready echo at the Spanish court, from which
she has been long excluded for political
reasons.
That court, with all the luxury and ex-
cesses. which accompany idle, useless. and
debased royalty. drains the millions it
larishes for dissipations and enjoyment
largely from Cuba; and the corrupt and
greedy official class, who levy exactions
upon the people, fatten upon Cuba, and are
only less solicitous than royalty that the
Queen of the Antilles shall not be wrested
from Spain's cruel dominion.

WAR MACHINERY FOR CUBA.

If, as is asserted III a dispatch from New
Orleans. published in The Times this morn
ing. the Administration has decided the
steamship woodali. laden with arms for
the Cuban patriots, has right to engage
in such traffic, and may sail without OBJ
strucaon, it is a very important point
gained and the customs officer at New
Orleans is to be congratulated for his de-
termined stand in. the matter.
Altogether, too, much supervision has
been engaged in by Government officers
for the prevention Of sO-called filibuster-
ing schemes, and Spanish agents have been
inipudent beyond endurance in the employ
ment of Pinkerton detectives and in de-
manding Interference with alleged expedi-
tiOns.
This Government recognition OF the
right of Americans to Sell arms and ammu-
milton TO the Cuban patriots should have
the effect to put an end to obstruction of
the purposes of individuals and bodies Of
men who would help the Cubans, either
for profit, for glory. or for the cause of
freedom.
1t is also in some sense an argument that
the Administration has in a measure stiff
fened its spine, and that yet broader &C.
ton may be taken in the near future in
sympathy with the Overwhelming sentiment
of Americans.

CHAMBERLAIN ASKS FOR GUNS.

Statements in cable dispatches this even
ing. are that joe Chamberlain, secre-
tary of state for the colonies in the British
ministry, has cabled to the Governor of
British Guiana to secure a vote imnIedi-
ately for the purchase of two Maxim guns.
to be placed. on the Venezuelan. frontier TO
shoot. kill, and otherwise slay supposed
Venezuelan army, which is supposed to be
about to occupy soil which is, claimed as
the property of Great Britain.
The British Governor must bc'in pain
full condition. The press of his little do
miuion makes all manner of sport of Cham
berain, and If the Guinnian, newspapers
dare to get funny at the expense OF the
austere colonial secretary, what may be
expected of the press of the rest of the

RACE PROBLEM SCHEMES.

AT banquet of the Merchants Club of
Boston, last evening, Hon. ]. Temple Graves,
OF Atlanta, Ca, spoke upon the race
problem among other things, and uttered
the astonishing opinion that its only solu.
tion lies in peaceful separation. within
the limits of the United States.
Mr.. Graves might Just as well have sug-
gested the colonization of the IAfro-Amer.
ican in the moon. The negroes will never
voluntarily huddle themselves together
in any one section, and certainly no. law
can be enacted which would compel their
residence in any State or number OF
States. Nor would the whites. permit q
performance which would drive them from

and their ferefathers have been rooted.

PEACEFUL REFORMS.

| That was a. remarkable speech, at lfast
1T so sounds tn, American ears, which was
made, by DR.. Wagner, rector of the. Uni
versity of Berlin, a day or two ago. He
commended socialism, as it is construed
In Germany, as being clear, logical,
scientific proposition, and declared that
Karl Marx and Ferdinand Lassalle were
great economists, who, like many pre-
decessors, had been misunderstood aud
had suffered for their opinions.
Dr.. Wagner, as every one who keeps
pace with the news of the day must know.
but echoes the sentiments. of scores of
eminent men In positions similar To his in
nearly all OF the famous, academies of
Great Britain and; the. continental states.
Professors and students Of the univers-
ties of Oxford, Cambridge and Edinboro
are to. a great extent committedl tpi the
principle that with the wonderful access
of lahor-savipg machinery industrial con-
ditieps, are revolutionized. and that as a
matter of necessity the means of pro-
dtiction. distribution and communication
must. be taken out of the hands Of iUd-
viduais and corporations who exploit them
for Individual profit. and be operated by
the people and for the people.

upon the subject-and there are many opin-
ions-it- may as well be confessed that

MISS POTTER AND BLooMERs,

Press reports say that Miss Helen Potter.
q delegate TO the Social Purity Congress
DOW in session at Baltimore, electrified her
andience yesterday by advocating bloom
srs and denouncing corsets.
Ever since the day. when dress reform be-
gan, long years ago, when bloomers were
pvcnted in all their pristine ugliness, au-
dicnces have been electrified in similar
manner, but dress reform makes little
progress, and 1t becomes more and more
apparent that a fashion which is not fresh
from the shops of Partisan man millineYs
will never be. adopted, either by the new
or the old woman.
Nothing is more senscless than the die
tate of fashion, but it is absolute in its
rule, nevertheless, and so-called emanci.
patcd women like Miss Potter are as loyal
in their obedience as any one.
Until all women who believe in dress
reform boldly and brayely and practi-
cally illustrate their views the costumes
Invented by fast Parisans will be worn
IN all their expensive absurdity and taw-
dry imitation.

This remar kablu change has been brought
about by two causes. First, 1t has been in
some degree forced upon. the uniyer eiies
by the tremendous activity and progress
of the workingman. The growth in power
and resources and capacity for self!help
on the part of the hand workers is, Of
course, the most important characteristic
of the time: ana thoughtful people must
take account of it. whether they will nr no.
But. on the other hand. this new growth of
Industrial democracy has been met among
the universities by a new philosophy.
The philosophy of indivdualisni has had
a great part in history and dominated the
