No Color Line nj Rcres

New York Tribune: Berea callcge,
at Berea, KY, which has attracted
widespread attention this week be-
cause of Miss Helen Gould's visit al
the time of its commencement. and
because Of the large gift which she is
reported to have given it, was founded
in 1855 by anti-slavery K~entuckians.
1t was the pioneer in educational
work among the mountain whites.
Since the civil war colorcd pupils have
been admitted to all its privileges, the
institution courageously maintaining
since that time the principle of equal
ity. 1t is also coeducational and is
not under sectarian control. 1t has ot
present about 500 pupils, fully half of
whom are girls. There are academic,
normal, industrial, manual training.
music and business courses. Sewing.
cooking, nursing and the general care
of the house are included in the pres
ent industrial training of the girls. 1t
is possible that spinning, dyeing and
weaving may be introduced later.

Moro Wcupons.

Every male Moro big enough to
walk carries a knife of some sort.
Usually it is a barong. sometimes a
kris. Barongs are shaped like the
blades of the old-fashioned rocker
skates and are big and little" writes
Oscar King Davis in Ainslec.s. "For,
business they IRE a foot and a half
long, and very heavy, with a razor
edge. A kris may be wavy all the
foot or two of blade. or only at eth.
er end. Some of them are very fine-
~ worked, inlaid with silver in fan
stastic designs and with carved ivory
or wood handles. in the market of
Jolo these arms are worth whatever
the Moro thinks the buyer will my.
Ono fine kris was offered to me for
twenty-five, thirty, seventeen, eight

lowers of the two Datos also CARRY
such weapons, There are perhaps 100
guns in the island, and each one Is

a knife has killed man its value is
greatly increased, more than quadru-
nled.'

Looks Like MISC Anthony.

Chicago Chronicle: On file in the Of.
fee of the Chicago weather bureau in
the Auditorium tower is a map record
of most remarkable coincidence.
This map was for February Q and
was sent from Washington to all the
weather offices in the United States as
the regular daily bulletin. The rain
storm area for the day, beginning at 8
a. M, February sand ending ut s a.
m. the 9th, was a striking profile sil-
houette of Miss Susan Is. Anthony.
The picture covered most of the east,
north and south and extended past
Chicago to the west. The profile was
of the head and bust and in shape
much resembled u plaster cast. The
top of the head and bust was in the
New England states and the lower
part of the bust extended to the Gulf
of Mexico. Striking us wa this, the
strange resemblance of the storm
area to Miss Anthony, the oddly was
intensified immeasurably when 1t
was learned that upon the am day
when the storm area prevailed in tho
east the Woman's Suffrage associa-
ton was assembled in convention in
Washington, not far from the center
of the storm,

Chicago Chronicle: Thomas Hood
told the truth when he said that bread
was dear and flesh. and blood cheap.
The New York tug captains put it in
another way when they refused to de-
vote themselves to rescuing p%erishing
creatures on the burning steamships
at Hoboken.
"There is M salvage on lives" they
exclaimed, and worked with mercen-
airy enthusiasm toward saving mer-
schandise while hundreds of people
burned or drowned almost within
arms length.
1t is not pessimism, but plain truth,
to say that the episode was largely
characteristic of the materialism
which pervndes II so-called advanced
civilization. Under the thin veneer of
education and religion the primeyal
man still exists.
The struggle for existence no long
er takes the form of mnrderous COM
bats e food. 1t is a competition for
foods equivalcnt-money. And no
skin-clad, cave-dwelling men of the
stone age ever fought more desperate
ly ore the carcass of 4 goat than do
their enlightened descendants over
the pile of money which represents
the necessities and comforts Of life.
Fortunately the battles of today are
tusually-though not always-intcllec-
tual rather than physical. The mod
ern troglodyte does not attack his
neighbor with a club and wrest from
him the spoils of the chase. His
weapons r cunning, discrimination
and legal machinery.
But on occasion, as we have seen ex-
emplitied at Hobokcn, the prehistoric
man, breaking through his veneer,
shows his contempt for human life as
compared with material considera-
tons. He harks back to the stone age
and hunts his dinner at the cost of his
neighbours life.
There is no salvage on lives" a
fire engine will run over and kill or
MAIN people in its haste to save not
life, but property. Firemen themselves
sacrifice their lives that piles of brick
and stone filed with merchandise may
not burn. Firemen can be replaced
without cost. Buildings and merchan-
disc are expensive.
1t is so in all the activities of human
life. Men are cheap; there is no SAL
wage on them. The New York tug
captains merely declared with brutal
.bl,mtness what is exemplified in one
form or another a thousand timee a
day in every city in every land under
the sun.
