for the Maroons. They had the game
with Brocktons won Saturday until the
visitors came In for the eighth time, when
Kelly's delivery was touched up and the
first misplay OF brilliant game made, al
lowing six runs to be scored, winning the
game.
Nick Wise did II by sending the ball
over the left field fence when there were
three men on bases. Perrin's men could
not find Kelley at all until the eighth
when they got there and the total for the
game was only six, while the home team
got eleven. 1t was great game that was
only marred by Buckley being hurt by
running against the fence while after

was removed to the Benedict House In q

WHITE SUPREMACY.
The Problem Which Is Uppermost just
Now In South Carolina.

The Problem Which Is Uppermost just
Now In South Carolina.
The cuT15us controversy continues in
South Carolina in regard to securing
"whito supremacy in that state through
the action of the constitutional convention
which is to be held this year.
1t seems to be assumed that through the
bargain that has been entered into bv the
"reformcrs" and conservatives for a divi-
sion of delegates there will be no difficulty
in making it white mans " conven-
ton, though nobody denies that the color
ed citizens of the state outnumber the
whites. But the former have either lost
the habit of voting or their votes have not
been counted much of late The total vote
in 1876 was over $50, 900. but in 1892 it
was only 20, 492. If the white men control
the convention. they may be able to devise
some system of suffrage restriction that
will exclude negroes from voting without
DISTINGUISHING white citizens
That is the main problem, but another
has arisen. Suppose the whites control
the convention, though they admit that
there are about 120, 900 negro voters and
only so, 600 white voters in the state. and
strCting negro suffrage without restrict
ing white suffrage, which is what they are
aiming at, how will they make sure of the
ratification of their revised constitution?
One newspaper, apparently a reform"
organ, gravely proposes that the conven-
tion provide that the constitution take
effect if there are IS, 900 votes in it's favor,
no matter how many there may be against
it.
That is carrying the principle Heads
win, tails you lose, " to an extreme never
before dreamed of. 1t shows what straits
tho people of South Carolina are in, or
imagine they are in, for tho maintenance
of white supremacy. A white minority
desires to divide into three political parties
and still control the state. 1t is hard
problems. New York Times.

SHE WAS STILL NAN SMITH.
Though Ten Years Had Changed the Town,
His Love Was Still Waiting.


He had been away from his home town
for years and yeaTs-which means, in
this instance, ten years-and he had gone
away because pretty Mamie Smith hadn't
asked him to stay. Men do that soma
times.
Now he had come again, and as he wan
dered about the old place there was almost
pain in his heart to note the changes time
had wrought. Everything was new, and
it made him homesicI to wander about
seeking the things of his childhood and
boyhood days and finding them not.
But he found Mamie Smith and went
to her as tired child goes to its mother.
She was kinder than of yore, and she was
really glad to see him. And he? Well,
she was ten years older, but she was still
as if it had been but yesterday since he
had told her goodby.

A Phase of Fame.

The stained glass window on the H
street side of Senator Brice's house is an
object of great curiosity to passershy, and
numerous and odd are the explanations of
it's presence made by strangers in the city,
who, without the services of Il guide, have
determined to see the exterio: of as many
fine homes as possible, even if they dom
succeed in getting past the portals.
Il never knew Senator Brice was a re.
ligious man" says the visitor from Ohio,
gazing pensively at the window with its
little row of evergreen trees at its base,
but that window must surely be in pri
vate chapel. Do you suppose he reads the
family prayers there every morningS"
We'll" replies her companion, who,
having been appointed to clerkship in
one of the departments six months pre-
viously, is competent to give all informa-
ton required on Washington topics, you
see, this house used to belong to Mr.. w.
w. Corcoran, a great philanthropist, and
they say that when Senator Brice bought
the house from his heirs it was with a
distinct understanding that a memorial
window should be put in place in honor of
the original owner, and this is it.

also GvFu's knowledge of HOrsefiesh was
the Cause of the Action.

As,s Ivrv,s knowledge of Horseflesh IVai
the Cause of the Action.
This is the narrative of Potter Palmer
and his chief porter, as told in Chicago
paper:
Mr.. Palmer has what he considers al
educated taste in horsefleSh. He thinks he
knows "a trotter when he secs him and has
little doubt of his ability to judge of the
aforesaid trotter when he sits behind him
with the ribbons in his hands.
Mr.. Palmer some time ago bought a
horse with an alleged ability to do mile
in $3.50 that struck him as being extreme
ly desirable. He paid good deal of money
for the animal, and he was filled with de.
light when he thought of the easy and
brash manner in which he would pass the
various turnouts on the Lake Shore drive.
He asked Mrs Palmer to come out with
him to try the new horse, and having
nothing better to do Mrs. Palmer consent
ed The wagon was yoked up and the
driver attached.
One by one the speedy horses of the
neighboring Armours and Trees and
Healys wero passed, and Mr.. Palmer was
just beginning to rejoice in his purchase
when there came behind him tho chatter
and rattle of badly constructed village
cart.
I'VE will have to have one mere rum
my dear" said Potter Palmer

Palmer

and nearer and then presenter and present.

til it faded away in the distance far be-
yond anything Potter Palmer and his new
horse could do, bnt as the vehicle went by
Mr.. Palmer recognized the driver.
1t was his own head porter! The man
who had thus brought him to open shame
was the person who told the slaveys how
to pile the trunks around in the Palmer
House.
He said nothing just them but, like the
parrot in tho story, he thought "a heap.
Mrs Palmer made such conversation as
there was held in the rest of tho trip, and
Mr.. Palmer got back to the hotel as soon
as possible.
How much does that head porter get
month";" he demanded.
Fifty dollars" replied the manager.
How can he buy trotting stock on 500
month";" demanded Mr. Palmer.
"Oh, you forget his fees"
"What fees?"
"Why, his tips-the money people give
the head porter when their luggage is
brought to them"
Hereafter, said Mr.. Palmer, mo por-
ter is to be permitted to collect fees. You
see that he does what he is paid to do for
what he is paid for it. And, by the way,
find out what he will take for that horse he
had out today"
