THE EX-G0VERNOR'S MESSAGE
President Tells Bishop Grant why
He Appoints Jones,

tie Appoints Jones.
Washington, Oct. 1.-THE President
had quite a number of callers to-day.
Bishop Grant of indianapolis, a we'll
known bishop of the Colored Methodist
Church, called to express to the Pres
ident his hearty Endorsement of the
appointment of ex-Gov. Jones of Ala
bama to a Federal judgeship in that
state.
He told the President that ex-Gov.
Jones, in his message to the State Leg
islature, had said more in opposition to
lawlessness and lynchings than any
Governor had ever said, and that in
his (Grant's) opinion, such appoint
ments as that of Gov. Jones, would
do much to better conditions between
the races in the South.
The President told Bishop Grant that
he had read ex-Gov. Jones message,
and that it was one Of the things that
had induced to make the appointment.
Bishop Grant asked that the President
consult several we'll known level-head-
ed colored men before deciding mat
tiers affecting negroes.
Senator Martin and Representative
Hay of Virginia, called to pay their re-
spects. The latter, who is a member
of the Military Affairs Committee of
the House, spoke of his interest in the
enactment of a law that would increase
the efficiency of the militia of the
states, and met with hearty response
from President Roosevelt.

why Are We Right-Handeds
From Pearson's Magazine.

rum fedISoI MdbdZlne.
Why are men, as a rule, right
handed?
Many theories are given in answer.
Some suppose that right handedness
has become hereditary-that in course
of long years of only partial employ
ment, the left hand has lost it's cum
ming. Against this theory however, it
is pointed out that almost all infants
are at first left-handed, and for a very
simple reason. In the ordinary way,
a mother or a nurse, unless left-hand-
ed, carries a baby with it's head against
her left side, and with it's right arm
next her The baby, consequently, puts
It's left hand out to grasp objects, and
grows up left-handed, until disabused
of the habit by subsequent education.
How often does one hear a fond
mother saying, Right hand, dear" to
a child who puts out a left in greet
ing, or who prefers TO use it's left hand
for holding a spoon or a knife! Many
wise doctors now advise mothers to
allow their children to use either hand
without any preference.
Sir James Sawyer, NJ. D., has prob
ably hit upon the most plausible rea-
son for the right handedness OF the
human race. In those early days, he
says, when those might take who had
the power, and those might keep who
could we were a lighting people, and
a people who fought hand to hand.
Naturally, In this kind of lighting, II
Ii most convenient 10 WELD a weapon
which can be used by one hand only,
The Savannah morning news., 1901-10-15

leaving the other hand and arm free
for preserving balance, for defensive
covering. and for offensive Selling.
Now the right hand would natural
~ be uesd in preference to the left for
welding a weapon, in order that the
heart might be kept as far away as
possible from the assault Of an adver-
sary. Hence. right-nandedness arose,
and was passed on from father to son.
Moreover. when men first fought to-
gether in companies, they must soon
have found that it was most conven-
lent to handle their weapons in a I'M
form way. If some in fighting COM
pany were right-handed, and others
were left-handed, their weapons would
be continually clashing. Whether drill
inging or fighting. the men would need
more space for welding their weapons.
If, on the other hand, each man used
his sword or his staff with the same
hand as his neighbor employed, con-
fusion would be minimized. and a~sym-
metrical appearance would be given to
the martial body.
So it may be inferred, says a writer
in the October Pearson's, that from
the earliest times custom and conven-
fence have had most to do with the
preferential use of the right hand. It
is unfair to the left hand to argue that
IT suffers from any physical disabil-
ity because than usually gives most of
his fine work to the right hand. This
is shown by the fact that any one
may train his left hand to be as clever
as the right.
In fact. in some matters, the left
hand is habitually given equal rights
with the right. and occasionally IL is
given the preference by naturally
right-handed people. In knitting, wo-
man gives both hands an equal share
of work, and is equally skilled with
each. When riding or driving, a man
gives his left hand the preference in
the matter of holding the reins.

From the Spectator.

A barber had been giving the writer
much informa ton about the hair. and
then remarked that not long since
quite a young man had come into his
shop who had lost all his hair. II had

apparent reason The barber said:

Then you have a terrier that catches
mice, and IL comes in contact with

that his sudden badness was disease

Buffalo, Oct. 14.-Kid Broad and
Dave Sullivan fought 2O-round draw
in the arena of the International Ath-
letic Club at Fort Erie tonight. 1t
was their fifth encounter in the ring,
and though opened slowly. it finished
as fast as could be desired. In the
last half-dozen rounds Broad began to
rock Sullivan's head with hard drives,
and in the eighteenth and nineteenth
rounds had his man groggy and in a
very bad way. In the closing round
Sullivan picked up wonderfully and in
a glVe-and-take finish perhaps more
than held his own. The boys were
mixing hard and fast in the center of
the ring, with ten seconds to go when
Chief Griffin slipped into the ring and
stopped the bout, saying that it was
degenerating from boxing match into
a fight. The referee declared it a
draw.
