|WHAT A WOMAN DOES NOT DO.
,,the1. Big Bunch Of Old Traditions That
Must Go.
Must Go.

| concile the two you must certainly
admit that you find them existing
often in the same mind.
Woman rejects the folles that are
ascribed to hcr-who can blame her?
but she seldom, if ever, objects to the
angel part Of it. In fact, she has
hugged all the beautiful things said
, about her angelic attributes to her
leart--such as a guardian angel O er
his lie presiding, doubling his pleas
ures and his cares dividing, until she
Is inclined to overestimatc her ability
to remodel almost any man she comes
in contact with. While a truly inau-
cncc can, and often does, work won
ders. still it has it's limitations. The
world has sighed many. many times
| over the pitiful failure Of the good
and devoted woman who, having given
up all, marrics man 'to reform him, -
only to find that her tenderness and
gentlencss and picty counted for so
very, very little after all.
| am afraid | am helping to reveal
sonic long g-hidden clay feet, but if I
am, | am not sorry. l do not like the
old habit of calling women angels any
better than like hearing man say
that is Just like a woman when a
woman firts, breaks heart and
throws it aside like child does a
shattered toy.
1t is the commonplace woman, the
one who admits that, like all humani-
ty-and humanity includes men as
we'll as women-shc has enough
faults to make her that most admira-
bic OF all women, 'not too bright nor
good for human nature daily food
and yet possessing few aims and
ideals of perfection that she will never
let go Of through whatever ups and
downs Of life may come to her.
The woman who stands out with the
belief that she is naturally the angel
that some very good poets and others
have called her, will not make the
best Of life for herself or others. She
will often be sadly disappointed that
her angelic intentions are without
weight. She will learn in time that
when one is among mortals that one
must do as mortals do. | do not mean
by this that believe woman should
ever step down from the high place
of womanliness that is her birthright
| only mean that when she is gentle of
speech, digni6ed of bearing, courteous
and unsel6sh and with reverence for
things pure and good, that she has
reached perfection of character that
is bound to influence others only for
good, but too much faith in her nat
ural goodness will spoil it all.
There may be an occasional angel
among women. and there is also an oc-
casional angel among men, but mortal
angels are not frequent and not apt to
be successes. The most delightful Of
men and women are those with few
faults and many virtues. s.-Margaret

YESTERDAYS REVIEW.

The review of the Seventh Army Corps
yesterday afternoon by Gen. Fitzhugh Lee
was a military pageant which will remain
vivid in the memory of those who were so
fortunate as TO witness it, To the com
manding general the showing made by the
troops must have been most gratifying
Every movement on the field was prac-
for any service to which they might be
assigned. To the civilian observer the re-
view gave the impression that it would be
impossible for any country to have a finer
lot of soldiers in its service. and that there
is nothing TO fear for the future Of the
United States while the country raises
such men to defend it, The review of yes
terday VIII probably be The last pubic
appearance of the men of the Seventh
Corps in this city as a body Indeed. the
chances are that the corps viii never be
gathered together again in its entirety
after 1t separates here for service in Cuba.
During the time the command has been
quartered in this city the people Of Sa-
vannah and the soldiers have come 10
know each other quite well, and to feel
for each other quite warm attachment.
The soldiers. by their good conduct and
gentlemanly bearing, have merited and re-
ceived respect and friendship. Upon The
eve OF their departure the Morning News
feeling sure that il voices the sentiment
of the whole city and therefore assuming
to speak in the name of the people OF the
city, eongratulates the country upon its
Seventh Army Corps, and TO the soldiers
OF the corps, officers and men, extends best
wishes for their future welfare and a god
speed on their way to their field of duly in

1t was in one of the big department
stores, says the Washington Post. Two
women stood near each other before
counter where the belongings of very lit
tie children are sold Both looked with
wistful yet widely different expressions a
the tiny garments displayed The one wo-
man asked to be shown knitted undervests
for a baby. The saleswoman drew out a
box and took from it some absurdy small
garments, soft, creamy, feecy, the most
delightful combination of silk and wool.
The wOman-a young woman she was al
most a girl-took them in her hands with
evident delight.
GLOW much are they?' she asked
The saleswoman named a price that was
twice the size of the tiny shirts.
"Apiece?' asked the would-be customer,
timidly.
YES" answered the saleswoman.
The customer put down the little gar
ments She looked tired and weak and bit
terIy disappointed. It's heart-breaking not
to be able to buy what you want for your
baby.

throat.
The other woman, who had been looking
into the showcase, had seen it all. She
spoke to the saleswoman brusquely.

'Ten me the price of that bonnet over
there"
The saleswoman hurried to obey. One
doesn't keep a chinchilla collar and an i'm
perious manner waiting If one knows one S
business. There was a moments whisper
ing and the saleswoman returned TO her
waiting customer. From another box she
produced some garments precisely similar
to the too expensive ones.
"Here's some shirts" said she, that's
we've marked down to close out. We have
only few left They're only" And
the "only'' was exactly half the price she
had named before. 1t wasn't cleverly done,
but it deceived the tired woman She went
away with the wistful look gone from her
face. The chinchilia collar went down IN
the same elevator with her, and the face
above the collar wore look almost of envy
added to its wistfulness, l fancied-though
it's folly, of course, to imagine that women
with chinchilla collars and imperious man
ners ever envy tired little women who have
to ask for something cheaper.

THE MCCORMICK TROUBLE.

1t is not probable that the nine citizens
of Mccormick in South Carolina who have
been indicted on the charge of having con-
spired to rob John w. Tolbert of that
place of his rights as citizen and assist
ant postmaster win have much trouble in
securing an acquittal. 1t appears from
the story they tell that they did not visit
Tolberts house for the purpose of order
ing him to leave the town They went
there to advise him TO leave, because they
had information that twenty-five or more
men were coming from Phoenix in search
of him, and they did not want any harm
to come to him, and they particularly did
not want any violence committed in their
community.
1t was for these reasons that a commit
tee of citizens went to his house and read
to him resolutions, which had been
adopted at a meeting of citizens, advis-
ing him to leave the place. The commit
tee was composed of only two or three cit
liens who desired TO have witnesses of
what was said and done. Therefore, three
citizens were called in to act in that ca
pacity. These witnesses are among the
nine men who have been indicted.
If what the indicted men say is correct
no threats were made, and nothing said or
done to which even Tolbert could take ex-
ception. In fact, he must have recogniz-
ed that the mission of the committee was
to do him a service. 1t is a fact that
Tolbert was not popular in the communi-
fls
family had been the cause of the death of
quite a number of innocent citizens of the
county. to which statement, it is alleged.
Tolbert assented. Tolbert was told of
the telephone messages which had been
received from Phoenix to the effect that
twenty-five men were to be sent from
that place TO deal with him, and that it
was advisable for him to leave Mccormick
for his own safety and for the welfare of
the community. He remained in McCor-
mick about thirty-six hours after receiv-
ing this advice and no one attempted to
modest him.
! When he was in Washington he wrote
TO one of the men now under Indictment
10 send him copy of the resolution that
] hau Decn adopted Oy Inc CltlZSnS OF Nc
! Cormck. as they might aid him in getting
much better job than the one he had in
that town. In the same letter he is quot
ed as saying that he would hardly give the
citizens of that place any more trouble.
thus showing a purpose TO use the fact
that he had been advised to leave McCor-
mick to get a better job from the govern
meut, and admitting that he had been the
cause Of trouble to the people Of that
place. When all the facts are brought TO
the surface, it win appear probably that
| Tolbert was not a desirable citizen, and
that he lost no opportunity to stir up
strife among the people.
The trial viii have the effect OF making
public the kind OF man Tolbert is.
and will show probably that the men who
are indicted for conspirng to run him
out Of the county. and away from his
office as assistant postmaster. intended 10
do him a service. not an injury, and that
they did not want any violence committed
In their town.

CUBA AND ANNEXATION.

II is safe prediction that inside of a
year after our government has taken pos
session Of Cuba the sentiment in favor OF
annexation Will be strong in every town in
the island What The better class of Gu
bans want is stable government They
are not so anxious for independence-for
self-government. The reason for This state
ment is found in the sentiments which
were expressed at a dinner in Santiago
given 10 Robert p. Porter, the agent of
our government who was sent to CUBA to
investigate conditions there re.ative 20 the
tariff The dinner was given to Mr.. Por-
ter by large number of the leading cit-
zens Of that city on Sunday last. 1t is
said that the remarks favorable to annex
alton which We're made in the speeches
and there were many of such remarks
were heartily applauded. Immediately af-
ter Gen. Wood was made military gov
ernor Of Santiago there was little or no
sentiment there in favor of annexation.
What has caused the change? The an
swer to that question is that for the
first time in many years Santiago has a
stable and liberal government. The adj
ministration of all the purely local offices
has been put in the hands of Cubans, and
Gen. Wood has been careful, to select for
official positions men of ability and high
character. The sanitary condition of the
town has been looked after and the best
of order has been preserved. Gen. Wood
has given he citizens OF Santiago an OBJ
joct lesson. AM it has had the effect of
making annexationists OF them
What has taken place in Santiago will
take place in all of the towns of Cuba,
provided the President is fortunate enough
to get as good military officials in the
various towns as Gen. Wood has proven
himself to be The people are tired of
disorder and violence-those who have
anything at stake. As soon as they learn
by practical experience that American ad-
miuistration of their affairs is desirable
and beneficial. the annexation sentiment
will become strong among that class of
the Cubans who make public opinion.
Whether or not there will be an effort
to bring about annexation in the near fu-
ture is a question about which nothing
can be said with any degree of certainty.
There will be no annexation before self
government is given trial. But annex
alton may not be delayed long after an
Independent government is established.
The leading Cubans are afraid that the
people are not yet ready for seif-govern-
Inent They are afraid o. the experiment.
As soon therefore as they become thor
oughly satisfied that the purpose of our
government is to deal fairly with the ISL
and they will be outspoken in favor of
annexation. Il win not be necessary to
establish newspapers in Cuba to advocate
II will only be necessary
to appoint at the head of affairs in the
different 'owns during the military occu-
patton men of integrity and good bust
ness sense.
