will use it's own judgment about asking the G. IA. R. to meet in that city.
 With two or three objectionable things out of the way. the proposed reunion would be desirable. The business men of Richmond very generally favor it, pro- vided the difficulties about the color line and the confederate flag can be over come. Perhaps it is too early for such reunions of the survivors of both armies, but the day is coming when they will oc- cur without any ffioI.ion, and those at the north will sae that 1t is ungenerous and unjust for them to stick to policy which Is calculated to keep sectional prej- udices and passions alive. They Iannot expect that southern people will submit to mortifying and degrading conditions simply because they are entertaining guests from another section.
 The survivors of The two armies are on very good terms, and if it were not for the politicians they would gladly come together without uttering a word or mak- ing amy display that would be offensive to either side. The majority of the fed eral veterans do not believe in the equal ity of the races, and they do not lose gheir heads at the sight Of Q. bit of con- fedsrate bunting.

Placing an Order For Snakes.

From the Chicago Times-Herald.
 DO you keep snalxes?" she asked, as she peered through her glasses at the par rots and guinea pigs in the bird store.

 'I don't think they would answer. You see, what I want is a regular snake, one of the long field kind that are not pois- onous I may as we'll tell you tha. my husband has taken to drinking and l want the snake to put in his boots"
 "If were you," said the man, "Id wait, and if he keeps on drinking he will see snakes, anyhow"
 "No he won't, and he wouldn't care if he did, if they weren't real. But if he sees live snake he'll quit, and Pm going to try i. on Could you get me one?'
 "Yes'm, I can fill .he order. If you call around tomorrow you can get the snakes, , and the man took down the address of his customer. .
 Its a test case" he said, as the woma n went out, "and I feel sort of curious to know how it will hurn out My idea is that the husband will be so mad when he finds the snake in his boo.5 that he'll go out and get as drunk as piled owl, but maybe it will work the ( hsr way we hope it will" t..
 Then he sent his boy out to hunt for snakes in the hedges and ditches of the prairie.

A True Philosopher.
,m the Atchison Globe.

From the Atchison Globe.
 A frown is a mild way of kicking.
 If you must be a liar be a good one
 man who laughs at his own joke us- ually tells poor story.
 Some people get the swelled head just be- cause they live in a big town.
 If you have taken proper care of the past the present will be found all right
 Our idea of an unusual man Is one who reads the Sunday morning sermons in Mon- days newspapers
 Find a man who is competent and will ing to work and notice the worthless peo- pie hanging onto his skirts.
 Every man is secretly proud if his beard is stiff and hard to cut he believes stiff beard means more of man.
 We have noticed that where you meet one man who complains that he is alone in the world and lonesome you meet ninety who are bowling about their kin.
 Our idea of good luck is to have coun- try people think so much of you that they come in for you on Sunday, take you out to Sunday dinner, and bring you back again.

Save This Girl.

The authorities and the people of this country should interfere in behalf Of Evangelina Csreros, the beautiful Cuban girl who is in danger of being sent to d Spanish prison on the coast ofAfrica. This young lady Is the niece of the Cuban president, and her offense is that she hap peped to be in a town just when an oIt- break of Cuban prisoners occurred. She was arrested as a rebel sympa thizer, and will undoubtedly be sent to Africa and left to the mercy of brutal prison guards. unless there is timely interference.
 Mrs. Julia Ward Howe has written to the pope and Mrs. Jefferson Davis has appealed to the Spanish queen. It would be a shame for this country to stand idle and let this young girl be condemned to such fate. The Spaniards show no me lcy to women. They have no respect for age or sex

Unfair Statistics.

The newspapers of the country are calling attention to the fact that. ac- cording to the census returns, Augusta shows higher per centage of illiteracy than any of the 124 American cities hav- dng over 25,0Oo popula tion. This is ob- viously unfair. Augusta has very large negro element and many factory hands of the poorest class. Thousands of ne- groes from Georgia and South canolina fave drffted to the city, and they have mot made much educational progress.
 Augusta has excellent public schools, and her white in Inhabitants have long been distinguished for their culture and re- finement. The census returns are mis- heading to outsiders and 1t would be a good thing if the educa tonal statistics of the south were confined to the white race. It is unjust to make the nliteracy of a horde of negroes offset the progress and culture of white people who are the equals of any community in the union.

The Color Line Again.

Next week a committee from the Young Mems Business association of Richmond will visit Buffalo to formally invpse the Grand Army of the Republic to hold it's next annual epcampment in the once cap Mal Of the confederacy. It is to be regret ted that the union veterans are commit ted to some things which southern com- mgnity cannot introrse. They want to wipe out the color line, and they will not march in procession with any organiza- nion which displays confederate flag.
 If the union soldiers go to Richmond in- si2ting upon rhess poirts it goes without saying that the citizens will not waste any enthusiasm over them. The color line :s a permanent thing south of the Potomac, and he ex-confs darates are not disposed to hide harmless relic like their flag to suit the whims of any set of men. These matters are under discues on, north and south, and the opinion is growing that it would be wiser for Richmond not to press the invira.tion When the coin- mittee surveys the situation at Buffalo it
