If Sophie Crolzette is spoken of now
adays, no one seems to understand, and
yet few years ago she was an actress
of such prominence that it was sug-
gcsted that Bcrnhardt had In her
possible rival. Her death in Paris re-
Gently has brought up her name, and
those who are ambllng through the
reminiscent period of middle life are
discussing her as she was in the height
of her achievement when she had Just
established her fame in lie Sphinx"
That was In 1874 and Bernhardt was
new enough in those days to feel the
power of Croizette as a rival. But
Croizette married in 1882, and with her
marriage meant retirement from the
stage, and so we ceased to hear from
her, and the present generation knows
her not, while the divine Sarah is still
triumphant.
One little incident comes to mind in
connection with Croizette. 1t was at
the moment of her greatest fame. A

NEW SHORT STORIES
GratefuI Tor Nonattendance.

AT recent dinner party in Washing
ton good story was told at the ex-
pense of Representative Norton of
ONO, commonly known to his col
leagues as Doctor" relates the Chi
cago Chronicle. 1t seems that early in
ms career Norton graduated in medi-
cine and took up the practice, later
giving it up for the more enticing
practice Of politics." The story In
question was told by one of DR.. Nor
tons colleagues from Ohio and was as
follows:
Back in the seventies / lived near
Or. Norton, then practicing physi-
clan. While in that neighborhood l
was taken seriously i'll and required
the services of two physicians for days
and days. knew l was pretty sick
man, and consequently when the doc
tors failed to put in an appearance on
certain day l asked my wife what
had become of them. She held back
for a minute, but finally confessed,
with tears in her eyes, that they had
given me up, that they were convinced
they could do nothing more for me.
Well, | was determined not to die and
happened to think of DIR. Norton. And
| want to say to you now that DR..
Norton saved my life. have always
been grateful to him for this great
service, although l have never been
able to repay him.

story ON senator Plat.


During n recent session of the SEN
ate committee on finance the question
of abolishing the revenue tax upon ex-
press money orders came up for dis
cussion. The senators were not fa-
miliar with the express money order
business, and Senator Plat of New
York, who, us most people know, Is
president of the United States Express
company, offered to enlighten them
Accordingly, he excused himself for a
moment and went to neighboring
office of his company, where he found
young clerk of whom he demanded
an express order for the sum of 8
cents. The boy was astonished at the
sihallness of the amount.
"Yes," Senator rlatt repeated, II
want a money order for cents. am
the president of this company"
The boy rushed into the private Office
of the company's agent.
"Say," he exclaimed, there's an old
gentleman outside who says he's the
president of the company, and he
wants an order for cents. I'm afraid
to give it to him for fear he'll raise it."
The agent appeared, and Senator
Platt got his order, and i'll due time
the members of the comp1ittee We're
enlightened as to the express money
order business.

The Tax Question.

Editor of The Times:
Sir,-The curtain lifts and instead of q
bevy of charming widows there passes in
panufama as unInvll1ns lot OF wurlocks
and witches as ever graced the midnight
orgies of Kirk-Alloway. For whom must
the REIMBURSEMENT" OF taxation be made?
For them who you say will lock up in
their strong boxes their stocks and bonds
and conceal them from the assessor.
What crimes do they commit In doing
this? Perjury and theft. We cannot be
brought to believe that The Times with
Its acknowledged and appreciated force
and chivalry would enter the list as the
champion Of this motley crew even If
they were all widows, exceedingly young
and pretty How can this '.readjustment'
be effected? BY contriving some scheme
OF taxation by which the part OF the
States revenue that should be borne by
the property forming these hiSh-class In
vestments will be shifted upon some other
property. What will be the effect of this
policy? To rob one class for the benefit
of another class.
Who will likely be robbed? The weaker
classes What effect may we reasonably
expect this policy of tyrannical injustice
to produce upon the citizens? Excite a
contempt for so-called law, develop a
spirit of dsoyalty and disregard for
the moral duties of citizenship. Under
this discriminating ''readjustment'' the
State practically says to the dishonest
taxpayer: IF you will be good and not
perjure yourself nor steal my revenue L
will unload q part of your burden upon
the backs of those helpless wretches who
cannot hide what they have" Surely such
paternal kindness will not be lost. In
justice in the State makes dishonest citl-
zens. When the State turns robber and
makes nninSt PN1ctiOnS W r111ch
blame the citizen for fighting the devil
with fire? The present tax laws are a
travesty upon justice and q shame TO a
civilized State, and have done more to
promote tax lodging than all other
causes combined. Taxation is an appro-
priation of part of the property of the
citizens for State purposes and should
be taken with an eyen hand from every
one in the proportion that he owns prop
erty.
What has the State to do with the In
come on capital invested? Are there not
thousands of dollars in the State that
make no return of income?. Shall this go
scot free? When once we depart from the
essential principle of equal rights to all
men and special privileges to none, We
enter the downward path that leads to
the moral degradation of the citizen and
to the eventual destruction Of govern
nlent.

GOOD ADVICE.

We have time and again urged upon
the celcred people Of the South that the
most promising sphere OF industry for
them is in the field of agriculture. We
were pleased to note that Booker WASH
irgton, in his recent address In this city,
took the same view. He urged the coll
osed people in the country to stay in the
country and till the soil rather than to
rush into the cities to find employment.
There is Il work for the intelligent, IN
dtstiiors coiorcd man wherever he may
be- e he has valuable labor to sell, he
can always ind a market for 1T, and II
he goes into trade and conducts himself
properly and his business properly, he
viii succeed in spite of the disadvantage
Of race.
But he will find in the cities sharp COM
petition with the white man. and his
white competitor, generally speaking, has
every advantage over him. 1t is not SO
on the farm The black man is by
ratlire q farmer. It is an industry that
he likes, an industry that suits him, and
an Industry in which his labor is most
sure TO count. In saying this We do not
mean to 6isparage agriculture nor the
black man. 1t requires a great deal Of
intelligence and education to carry on
successfully farming operations and
farming is Il noble and honorable voca-
ton. But the black man can learn to
farm. and it has been demonstrated that
he is capable of making a first rate
farmer.
We say that the farm holds out great
inducements to him because he is not in
sharp competition with the whites, and
racial prejudice does not in any way
operate against him. When he ships his
stuff to market nobody ever stops to
enquire whether it was grown by white
farmer or colored farmer, and II he has
produced the right sort of stuff it will
sell quite as well as similar stuff grown
by the white farmer. On the farm he
is free and independent. the lord of, his
manor and if he conducts himself as
gentleman ne will pc treated as such by
his neishbors of both races. The black
man who has an opportunity to get
farm for himself will make q great mis-
take if he abandons that opportunity to
seek OccupatiOn in town.

people. At least China is satisfied on this
point. She will do what little she thinks
ut in order for the court to return to
Pelsin and If what she offers Is not con-
sidered sufficient, why the wretched
struggle viii drag along with no improve
nent in trade from that direction. and
trade is what the world wants. Were.
sneace made Tomorrow am still inclined
to believe that 1T is going to take much
time before China will be in a position
to buy largely. Europe thinks it tins
to have plenty of anchors to the wind

their precautions Europeans are not
happy about the way things are turning
The death of Queen Victoria is a great
loss to the world She stood for so much
that is fine. Her experience was SO
great, her influence so wonderful. King
Edward is most popular, but the life NJ
has led is hardly that best calculated to
prepare man to assume at sixty tn,
lead of a great empire at avery critical
point in its history
This is interesting, and the more SC
because it comes from an American whs
has lived for years abroad, and who is
in position to view the situation from
the American as well as from the Euro
pean point of view. His observations
about China are especially significant, il:
view of the latest news from that quar-
