A HANDSOME white girl recently
ran away with q negro in Chicago
andmarried him. At the same time
she was engaged to a fine young
merchant at Minneapolis, MINI.
Probably the marriage day with her
afianced husband was postponed
too long to suit her amorous dispo-
sition. For that reason she took a
negro. In due time no doubt she
will appear on the stage as a lee
turess, and will tell what she knows
about miscegenation and the civil

euss the fifteenth amendment at the

crease In price ranging with single

Searles, formerly OF the American su-
gar trust-differx with Mr.. Croker. MI.
Stone and Mr.. Wetmore.
Arkansas Jones dos not believe that
there is a possibility Of carrying New

man Is not always astute, but he is
sometimes well Informed and on his
recent visit to New York he had long
talks with ex-senator David Bennett
.Hill and Comptroller Bird 8. Coler
Arkansas Jones believes that Mr.. Croker
has unwisely stimulated Democratic
factional warfare In the state. On the
other hand, Mr.. Croker and bis friends
believe that Mr.. Jones. because OF his
connection with the cotton bale trust,
is mighty poor chairman OF the DEM
