Iune Race Meet.

If the business men of DEBORAH will
unite in pushing the June Race Meet
project, and will give their assistance
to the committee who has it i'm charge,
a meet will be a certainty provided the
elements do not prevent it.
There is good field of speed right in
DEBORAH at present, and the horsemen
are interested in getting some purses
offered that will entice fast horses from
all over this section of the country. A
June Race Meet will be good thing
for DEBORAH. No need to discuss that.
All that remains to be done is when the
committee calls upon you to respond.
They will show you by what method.
Since writing the above over 500 has
been subscribed by the business men,
which practically assures the success OF
the project. A. least $1,000 will be rails
ed as basis to start on.

Tribute from the south.

iFrom the New Orleans Times Democratl
Apropos OF all this AID olher. news from
Puris. we take this opportunity to express
our admiration of the extremely able and
interesting news service from Paris and from
London which THE Chicago Tribune " has
been running daily in it's columns for several
months past. Several of the. New York dailies
have excellent cable letters from London and
sometimes other European capitals In their
Sunday issues. but they appear as q rule only
once week. the b-icf dispatches which they
get or the o,he- days of the week not amount
ing TO much in the way Of an Ineligible and
adequate presentation of European news
I" Tie Chicago Tribune's foreign service.
Sc; ned " Grace Corneau" from Paris and
" IL. J. Whlgham from London, taking il
al, the week around. il long way ahead OF
the foreign news service CT any Ct the New
York papers,
Oae or two OF the New York papers have
had for years n deserygdly high reputation
for presenting their readers with news OF in
tereSt from foreign parts. and the public will
not forget its indebtedness TO them on that
account. But it is beyond dispute that the
star Of journalism Is Westward taking its
way. and that the journalism Of Chicago is
beginning to b. the metropolitan journalism
OF the present and will certainly be. II things
InCye as they are moving now. The metro
generally, IL at all approve the politics OF
:" The Chicago Tribune but, apart from its
politics. II is. in our opinion. superior TO any
eign news service the best in the United
States. but its horne news service covers the
country with a fuliness to which the New
York pap rs are Stranger. " The Trlbune's 4"
edition last Sunday must have caused qualrns
OF envy to the journalists of New York IL was
a journalistic effort to which hitherto none
or the Gotham papers has been equal.

brate their anniversary. The day was
spent renewing acquaintance and
friendships and in amusements OF
various kinds, not excepting the con.
sumption of the vast supply Of eatables

with "a purse Of money, as token OF
the esteem in which they are held in

Cause. For suicide In China


So far as | have been able to ascer-
tain, the causes of suicide in China are
not, as i'm Europe, profound melan-
cholia, heavy losses or disappointment
in love, but chiefly revenge and the de-
sire to infiict serious injury on another.
Suicide enables a Chinese to take a
truly terrible revenge, for he believes
that his spirit will Indignantly haunt
and injure the living. and the desire to
save suicides life arises in most cases
not from humanity. but from the hope
Of averting such direful catastrophe.
If n master offends his servant or
makes him close face" or a shopkeeper
his assistant or apprentice, the surest
revenge Is to die on the premises, for II
not only involves the power Of haunt
ing and Of inflicting daily injuries, but
renders II necessary that the body
should lie where death occurs until an
official inquiry is made, which brings
into the house the scandal and turmoil
of a visit from mandarin with body
of officials and retaiRers.
1t is quite common for a man or wo'
man to walk into the courtyard Of a
person against whom he or she has q
grudgc and take fatal dose Of opium
there to insure these desirable resultsl

The Hair In the Watch.

Superf1uous hirsute adornments are
unpopular with women, especially
when they take the form of incipient
mustaches. Men, as a rule, are not SO
sensitive, but hairy individual, who
must have been lineal descendant of
Esau, inasmuch as he actually had
whiskers growing out of his ears, had
a rather narrowing experience in a
fashionable Chestnut street jewelry
store He wanted to buy watch, the
best in the place, and very elaborate
timepiece was shown to him by the
salesman. 1t was said to be an ex-
cellent timekeeper. I'VE have had II
in stock for quite awhile" explained
the salesman, land can guarantee that
it won't vary a fraction Of second
We've never allowed 1t to run down."
The prospective purchaser, who look.
ed like prosperous mine owner from
the west. had been examining the
works and casually placed the watch to
his ear "Never run down. hey?" lie
calculated. why, it's stopped now"
"That's very strange" said the sales
man.
The man again placed the watch to
his ear to make sure. and then the
truth became apparent The hair which
protruded from his ear had intruded
into the works and stopped the delicate
mechanism. The salesman didn't like
to explain matters. and his delicacy
cost him the sale of the watch.-Phila
