WorthIessness Of Plan Not Put late

Worthleasness of a Plan Not Put late
Execution.
We cannot expect to be estimated
solely according to our intentions. One
cannot safely estimate himself by what
he intends to do. A thousand of the
best intentions will amount to nothing
unless accompanied by some actual
doing. One act rescued and set on its
feet out of the land of dreamy inten-
tons il worth more than all the perfect
dreams which never become more than
dreams Perfect dreaming will not
make perfect work. Only working will
do that. There is a point beyond which
all farther preparation in the way Of
thinking thing over is useless, and
at that point the only farther prepara-
ton worth speaking of is actually set
ting to work. "A touch of firmness and
reality which nothing else can give, In
Is impaired to all The rest of mans
intentions when he definitely sets
about the accomplishment of long
cherished purpose. Something quite
new enters into his hand and his heart
when he gets to work. IL never comes
bcfore.-S. s. Times.

In the tariff bill as it stands and as
II is to be damned through" by the
senatorial combine there are three prin-
cipal schedules-wool, hides and sugar.
The wool duties will levy q heavy
tribute on all the peoples clothing
and blankets. but they will placate the
wool growers of n few states and secure
the reelection of the senator's who force
their adoption. The duty on hides will
seriously cripple the export leather in
dustries of the country and add large
ly to the price the people must pay for
boots. shoes and all other leather goods
But this tribute must be levied for the
benefit of the cattle trust or the sage
brush senator's will withhold their votes
and defeat the bill. The sugar duties
mean millions to the sugar trust, every
dollar of which the consumers of sugar
must pay. But the sugar trust owns
too many senators-directly or indi-
rectly-to be ignored. Its right to levy
tribute must be guaranteed or no tariff
bill can be passed. This is the situa-
ton. 1t is scandalous, but it is fact.

Coeducation and Matrimony.

From the Chicago Daily Tribune.
President W. r. Harper of Chicago Uni
versity spoiled a good story yesterday af-

into thin air just at the close of the Sun
day afternoon lecture in Kent Theater
Somebody started report that the uni
versity authorities were going either to
compel all betrothed students to break
their engagements for the time or to force
leave the institution. There already is a
rule In force, 1t is said, which refuses ma
triculatlon to students who are married
The habit cf falling in love. the rumor
said, had become SO frequent among the
students that the faculty had decided to
adopt heroic measures to put a stop to it
also.
A few days ago. the betrothal of Miss
Kew. a special student at the university
and tennis champion, to Mr.. Frederick d.
Nichols, the university foot ball team 9

enforcement Of the new rule with these

reporter went out to the university to
Investigate the report. He waited for a
half hour till the afternoon lecture was
ended. and the two young people and Pres

Christian powers, whereof British Minister
Nicholson is president Slaves cannot be

private agreement. There is no slave
mart as at Bogador and other interior
towns, but long caravans OF slaves pass
through. and their rags jostle the stirSups
of the august foreign ministers as they
ride horseback through the vile and mar
row streets They drive the camels in the
caravans from the SOudan. which halt out
side the city gates. They do much of the
hard and heavy work They are exclusively
employed In the harems OF the wealthy
Moors- They are even owned by Euro
peans. There is no admixture of blood In
these slaves. They are as black as COAL
and as ragged as beggars. while the Moors
especially the wealthy ones who live In

Engllshmen, and are often beautifully clad
