SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 10, 1898.

For many years the white and black
teachers of St. Louis have met in the
same teachers institute. This year the
color line WAS drawn and the Afro
American teacher, were ordered to or
ganizs separate II stitute. Some OF the
Afro-American teachers to their shame,
be it said, were delighted. Instead of
making az indignant protest, resolu-
7tion was passed commencing tho separ-
ste institute plan. It is too bad that the
race has 80 many psople who ara willing
TO lick the hand that c1ushes them
Supposed to bs the best repre- ger tative s
of the Afro-A american race the teachers
who voted for that commendatory reso-
aqtion are really the most degraded mem
be-s wholly devoid of shame or honor

Prussil or Count Bernhard of Schau1n-
berg-:I.ippe. Any one of these would dear
~ love the chance of accepting Wilhel-
mina's white little hand and green little
land, though as. consort their power and
precedence would be rather limited.
Among I'll these suitors her young
majesty should surely be able to find one
whom she could love sincerely, and per-
haps the only fellow sovereign who can
not look on aniably at this matter Of
royal match making is Emperor William.
Dearly, dearly would he. have liked to
have welded Wilhelnlina to his eldest son
and thus make Holland a part Of the Ger
man empire Some years ago I know it
to be a fact that he did discuss such an
alliance with Queen Emma, in hopes that
the little queen would wait until Crown
Prince William came to marriageable
age. Queen Emma was civil, but nom
5committal, knowing well both her 6augh-
ter and her government would never con-
sent to see Holland, by this maneuver
swallowed up in the German empire.

sad havoc. They did not even believe
any longer that they were born to be
! mems slaves and created to serve mems
| pleasure. And the charchaff was Offer
ing them practical immunity for very
| different purposes.
| So, from one side and another annea1
| was made to the sultan that the women
might be allowed or compelled to put
aside the discriminating charcraj and go
back to the yasmak, which at least made
1T possible to xsll' who was who, and was
! now regarded1s by far the lesser of two
| evils What consultations and discus
s1ons went on in the big white yildiz
krosque no one knows, but, at last, less
| IMAM year ago, new proclamation was
| issued, Which was so Queerly WOrded that
| 1t practically gave women the choice of
| dressing as they pleased, so long as they
! made some pretense Of covering their
race. Which meant, of course, that even
| in Turkey, women were beginning to get
their own way.
About this time I made the acquaint-
ance in Constantnople of an American
dentist who has the honor of looking
after the sultan's teeth, and in conse-
quence has many patients both men and
women, among the highest classes. He
has spent hours in various harems and
has thus been able to make the acquaint-
ance of many Turkish women and study
their characteristics and peculiariues. At
his earlier visits the chief eunuch would
remain In the room while he did the
work, but afterward he would be left
free from surveillance and could chat
with the women as he pleased. He as
surcd me that they are like a lot of
school gilrs, except that they have far
less instruction than the average Euro
pean school girl, and that they would
worry his life out with questions about
the women of America Endless in their
curiosity to know how our women dress,
down to the smallest detail, how they
spend their time and especially what
use they make of the wonderful freedom
given them by the American men. AL
ready many of them in the house wear
European Dress the wells and charchaffs
being put on only when they go out Of
doors. Many of them, too, are studying
French and English, with native govern
esses to teach them, and are reading with
great thirst for knowledge, such books
in those tongues as come into their
hands.
Are there many pretty ones,' I asked
of the dentist, "amcng these Turkish
women?"
'Of course there are a few" he said,
''but most of them are fat and coarse
locking and altogether uninteresting.
You know a Turk doesn't think wo-
man is beautiful unless she has figure
like a beer barrel
Are they intelligent?"
"Somc Of them are very, and nc. doubt
many would develop into fine women if
they had half chance-that is, If they
had better instruction and decent re-
ligion. 1t is my opinion, they are get
ting pretty sick Of being treated as ami
mails without SOULS ...'
I have no doubt the American dentist
Is correct In this opinion, and these re-
cent revolutionary happenings with the
yasmak and the charchaff are significant
of other things to come--they show the
way the wind is blowing. .-.s., i. 49,
