An innovation in Wedding gowns was
introduced by Miss Ella c. Lcunsberry.
of Brooklyn, whose marriage to MI.
George A. Hill occurred in Brooklyn
yesterday. The bride. who is deserted
as piquant brunette Of eighteen years,
wore a rose point lace veil nearly cen
tury old. which was first worn By her
Observation-Disclosures at her own wedding.
The misty folds Of rare cid lace fell over
the trailing robe of pale blue satin
trimmed with chiffon Her jewels in
ciuded a splendid diamond brooch, given
by the groom. and she carried the con-
veI1Ional bouquet Of Bride roses. White
is endeared TO brides of old and roman
tic traditions, but there is no doubt that
tinted satins are more apt to be becom-
inge-especially to brunettes.

er at least three pounds Of stubs a day,
for which they receive the magnificent
remuneration Of something to eat and
a miserable and indecent quarter in
which TO sleep. It is estimated that
there are picked UP daily from the
filthy streets Of Chicago, by boys work
ing under one man. twelve hundred
pounds per acre, and 5 cents per pound
into cigarettes. What a lesson In
economy"
This Is alluring truly It presents an
inviting picture to smokers. Still the
cigarette is never 5aneful, il you viii
heed n swift defenders, the friend of
trusts. DIR. Paulson says that the ciga-
rette indulgers should daily mediate
upon it to serve in a certain way as
compensation for the baneful physical
effects of this terrible habit which they
persist in indulging."

There are movements now in the
south looking 10 the radical change in
the school taxation. Georgfas gov
ernor favors the distribution Of X
of each race to the education OF Its own
children. white taxes going to the
white schools. and negro going to
the negro schools. There is a bill be-
fore the Mississippi legislature now
looking to the same end. The white
people are growing FESTIVE in many
states over the school tax as now dis
tributed. In North Carolina the proba-
bility is that the same distribution will
continue unless the amendment TO the
constitution is carried at the August
election. If defeated then look out for
a change. White folks will not e
longer h Improbable tax for negro
education.

lieu of that better way we copy some
extracts hoping that they will serve to
impress the reader and make him only
the more hungry for the whole. The
senator says:
The deductions to be made from the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
of the constitution in their relation to
negro suffrage, as the same are con-
rue by the supreme court, are:
First. That so far as they relate to
Suffrage they effect only the negro race
who are citizens of the United States.
Second. That they protect negro
suffrage against the operation or laws
that exclude them from voting, by pro-
visions that discriminate against them
on the ground of race, color or previous
condition of s~eryitude.

this protection is legislative u IS

A JURIST AND A DOCTOR ON THE
CIGARETTE.

Judge Dorsey Battle while holding
our at Charlotte, made a severe ar
raignment of the deadly cigarette when
charging the grand jury. He is a very
amiab1e judge and not cranky as
some are. He said, as we get from the
Observer:
H said thai no matter where one
travelled these days he saw small boys,
tots, smoking these miserable cigar
cites. 1.-THE next generation of our
boys he declared, will be degenerates,
merely through this cause. Tt is the
Inhalation of the tobacco hat is hurt
full. Blowing cigarette smoke through
a handkerchief leaves a stain or mark
of nicotine or the handkerchief. Think
of this going through the lungs and
affecting the entire system! The ci-
garette habit ranks with the morphine
habit, / now of two u men, aged
II and 10 years, who lived in my DUN
ty and who were killed by cigarettes.
They smokes excessively and their dis
solution was speedy"
When recently writing of the ciga-
rette we mentioned the test of the
handkerchief given by the judge, but
we knew it for thirty years as to the
cigar and the pipe, and had seen it
tested, and had recently heard a min
lister speak of it also. We had not seen
then the above from the Observer. 1t is
needless for medical experts and chem
lists to say that the cigarette will not
kill. 1t does kill, n many examples
are known. There may be no poisonS
added, but the nicotine of the cigarette
is abundantly able to do the deadly
work.
Sinna writing ahnun in o1onoinU oy-QT
the Charlotte News we found a dis
tressing special from Lexington, n. c.,
giving an account of a young man
named Tom Layden, a Geographic op-
orator. who crazed by cigarettes had
taken his w life. The dispatch says
that "he was a great cigarette smoker,
and showed signs of insanity, caused
by excessive smoking four years ago.
Later he recovered, and seemed to be
fully restored. 1t is said that the ciga-
rette habit again became fixed on him,
and again unbalanced his mind.
Two months g he lost his position
as telegraph operator because his mind
was again affected.
He was the most inveterate cigarette
smoker, never being without one of the
coffin tacks' in his mouth. He often
stopped in the midst of a message to
light a fresh cigarette
Remember that the cigarette is dead
