China had attempted to set up a suzer- ainty over Korea, that she even refused
 the reforms We demanded in the treat
 ment of Japanese subjects in that
 tented ourselves with demanding the in-
 dependence of Korea, save only that we
 stipulated for the retention of the terri
 tory actually conquered. What hap pened? All Europe turned upon us like a tiger, and called hands off Not one of the objects for which we fought were we allowed to have. We yielded, and except that we had crippled China's power to injure us, we had gained noth- ing by the war" He then proceeded to say that the wiseacres of the West thought that they had done n very clever thing in letting Japan pull the Chinese chestnuts out of the fire for them. Russia proceeded to take Port Arthur; England, Wei-Hai-Wei, and Germany, Kiao-Chau. Thus, practical ly, the whole of the coast, around which we had fought, fell into European hands. Not thought was bestowed upon Japan. And you thought it was all settled beautifully. But we Japanese knew better. and we bided our time. We were in no hurry-the East never is. When we fought we had only to fight the Chinese army and navy. You have to fight the whole Chinese people. You know that you cannot succeed"
 Perhaps Mr. Tatsui has some ground for complaint on behalf of his country, but he may be surprised to see how and speedily the present troubles will be composed.

THE NORTH CAROLINA FICTION.

THE NORTH CAROLINA ERECTION. There is to be an election in North
 Carolina on the 2d of next month, and
 it is not expected that the Republicans
 will win. State and county officials
 and members of the legislature are to
 be elected. In addition the people will
 vote upon the proposed amendment to
 the Constitution of North Carolina re- stricting the right of suffrage. The amendment, if adopted, will effect a radical change in existing suffrage laws.
 The purpose of the amendment, it is frankly admitted, is to disfranchise H.
 literate negro voters without depriving illiterate whites of the right of suffrage. It is proposed to eliminate the illiterate negro vote and to protect the white H. literates, according to section 4 of the constitutional amendment as follows:
 Every person presenting himself for registration shall be able to read and write any section of the Constitution in the English language. Before he shall be entitled to vote he shall have paid on or before the first day of May of the year in which he proposes to vote, his poll tax for the previous year. But no male person who was, on Janu- ary 1, 1867, or at any time prior thereto entitled to vote under the laws of any State of the United States wherein he then resided, and no lineal descendant of any such person shall be denied the right to register and vote at any elec- ure to possess the educational qualifi- cations herein described"
 Most of the negro voters in North Carolina are the descendants of former slaves who did not enjoy the right of suffrage prior to 1867. Hence they will be denied suffrage if they cannot read and write any section of the State Con- stitution Practically all white men could vote in North Carolina before 1867, so that their descendants, under the exempting clause of the amend ment, will not be affected by the edu- cational qualification, however illiterate they may be. Such provision was re- gently incorporated in the Constitution of Louisiana. It is known as the grandfather clause" and provides in effect that any man whose grandfather could vote shall not be deprived of the right of suffrage by the imposition of educational requirements.
 There seems to be no doubt that the amendment will be adopted, but there is some doubt about it's constitutional l ity. It is argued that "the grandfather | clause" is alien to the genius of our Constitution, in that "it establishes a | hereditary and privileged class"

SHE SHO ULDN,T REFUSE IT.

So many queer things happen in Kansas that there is no need Of being surprised by any one of the queer things that happen there. For in- stance, a Kansas woman who was di- vorced from her husband has refused to take the alimony granted by the court because she has not helped her husband earn his money.
 This is a very unusual course for a divorced woman to take, and it is not soundly defensible. The woman is well entitled to the alimony. She married the man. and by giving him her heart and hand gave him so much that noth- ing he could ever give her would half pay for the boon she bestowed upon him. Then he has had the pleasure and the stimulus of her society, and those have been of inestimable value to him. And if she didn't help him earn his money perhaps she has induced him to spend some of 1t like gentleman. She should take the alimony and cast her undue sensitiveness, her false pride, or whatever 1t is, away. How ever large the alimony may be it is not more than she deserves or than he ought to pay.

J others to do the same for you. l never made any display of tips, that is to ex- pose the money to any one at the table. | Don't you do it, either. Some vulgar 1 men will do it for display. Others will | hand 1t to you slyly. Both are in bad l form. The coin can be placed by the l side of the plate and you can gracefully take it at command of your guest | Some guests have a habit of exposing q | half dollar in front of their plate part | ly peeping out from glass or butter | platter. They do this to urge the wait CT to do his best. That is not in good taste. You are young, my boy, and l | advise you not to let such thing rattle
 or daze you. Try to act as if you did not see the coin at all, but do your best, as you always should, silver in sight or not. One time a guest of mine had out
 a dollar at dinner sticking from under
 a crust of bread When he got through he picked up the dollar, put 1t in his pocket and walked out. Now if l had just about broke my neck watin' on
 him, he'd have had the loud laugh on
 me. But I had givin' him good aten-
 shun only. Didn't he have the nerve to
 come in at the next meal! I waited on
 him, as if nothing had happened; and
 then l got that dollar. He laughed
 about it, for he was that kind of
 joker. 1t is an old trick, though, of
 shaking out silver on the table as bait
 and then taking it in after the meal is
 served. It is the trick of the one-rneal
 men, No woman would be so mean.
 The point, my son, I wish to make is
 this, don't worry, but wait until you
 get the tip When you have it keep
 on your feet, whether it's dime or a
 dollar I once got five-dollar tip. It
 nearly paralyzed me, but kept on ny feet. I might have dropped dead had
 not all my life cultivated the condition of never being rattled, no matter what would happen. When a man is with his wife, pay atenshun to the wife, in seating her and when she is finished. Be at your guests side when they are finishing.
 Don't be out of their sight at that time, Human nature likes a chance to get away. Be near, and yet seem to be indifferent. Never appear to be expect ing remembrance. If you can serve guest as if a tip was a fixed charge, readily agreed to and understood, so much the better. The tip then comes and if has no earmarks of hardship. A waiter should not only induce the giving of a tip, but he should compel 1t to come to him with pleasure from the guest. Never make guest feel as if it is his absolute duty to reward you. Rather let him be glad to serve you in return for the nice way in which you have waited on him. Of course, you'll meet ill-bred and cheap people They will think the hotel pays you and that 1t is your duty to wait on the guests. That is true. Wait on them as good as you can, tip or no tip, but you will al- ways find it to pay you best if you ob- serve certain rules of conduct at the table. ever know guest away from

IJIF1NESM COMPLAIIv7.

MT. R. Tatsui, editor of the Nichi-
 Nichi- -Shimbun, the leading daily paper of Tokio, has been talking, and as he doubtless talks understandingly what he says is interesting. He says that the present state of affairs in China is due to the shameless treatment Japan received after her victorious campaign against China five years ago. We made enormous sacrifices, both in men and money; we sank the greater part of the Chinese fleet; we occupied the most salient points of Chinese territory, including Port Arthur, and we crippled China as a military power--in fact, we had the great Chinese empire at our feet. Then, after nine months fighting we made peace. Remember that of the Japanese legation had been killed some years before, that

If you are called away from the hotel or spoken to by persons whom you have served, raise your hat pblitely and be ready and willing to serve them, but never make any advances. You can be as well bred as your guest. I have met my table people miles from the hotel at a race course in the heat of the after noon. When they recognized me l po- litely inquired whether I could serve them in any way. They said no, but appreciated the attention all the same. but you must be very careful.

We read with interest that the Porte is considering the subject of sending q Turkish force to China to cooperate with the Powers, and that the Sultan is greatly affected by the barbarous acts of the Chinese.
 We hope that the Sultan is at least as sorry for the barbarous acts of the massacre of the Armenians, and we hope that he will think that China ought to be at least as prompt in pay ing the bill that will be presented as he is in paying bills that he agrees to pay

ADVICE TO A YOUNG WAITER.

Negro With Thirty Years Experience Writes to His Son on the Subject of
 Tips.
 A negro hotel waiter of thirty years experience at seashore and mountain
 resorts near New York wrote the fol-
 lowing letter of advice to his son on the best methods of getting tips from guests:
 My Dear Boy: Now since you've
 got job waitin' allow me to speak to
 you. Waitin' in a hotel like you're at
 now means more than you know. The
 house has good reputation. Swell
 people get there occasionally and they
 might come your way. In my thirty
 years experience at waitin' I've noted good many things that means silver
 and dollar bills when you mind your bizness. As I often told you, I got few
 tips from my people the first year. That Is to say, what I did get was axi- dinti What you want to know Is how to get tips regular how to make the money come to you. Not wishing you to go long for years in the dark I want to tell you my experience. I never was lucky as you to have father to let me in on the ground floor of experience as I am doln' to you, jest now. I know you know tow to dress-hands and face always clean. Have your shirts, col lars and cuffs without d mark Now don't you come rushin' in the dinin' room as If cyclone was behind you. That's a common niggers trick to have people look at him. But come in and smart, so as not to attract attention
 But I want to start a the beginning The head waiter he'll start your people to start with, and he generally gets first whack up, but not that he deserves it. It's the custom sos as the guests gets a bow when he comes into the dim in room, Is known, and Is shown with atenshan. to his chaig When you get your guest at the table, don't you be fussy. Don't be too much in a hurry. Keep on at what your at. Finish up what you're doin'. Keep steady Have a morning paper, if it's breakfast, or an evening paper if it's dinner. I all ways bought two copies of each, and found it paid me. If a young man in alone to breakfast study him sideways while you're at work.

The French and the German alumin- um companies are securing increasing sales of their product, but in England the metal is said to be making slow headway In France there is growing demand for aluminium alloys in the construction of motor vehicles, while in Germany about one half of the output of the Neuhausen works is used for military purposes. In England the War Office has used aluminium in connection with ballooning and field telegraph ap- paratus, but not at all for soldiers equipments, or in army service or trans port departments The British navy uses aluminium in the internal fittings of ships and torpedo tubes On the railroads, however, aluminium is class ed as precious metal, with a corre- spondingly high rate of freight, much to its disadvantage in competition with copper, brass and iron.
