Ups and Downs of Life.

St. Louis Star.
1t is rather a sad commentary upon the
stability of human fortune toread that the
widow of John G. Breckenridge, at the age
of 76 years, has been granted a pension of
IS per month because of the service of her
husband in the Mexican War.
In speaking of this the Boston Herald
remarks \ FIFTY years ago
Breckenridge came into Congress from
Kentucky, handsome and chivalrous in
bearing, and with the reputation of one of
the brilliant orators of his State"
He Immediately took prominent posi-
ton in the House, aud is best remember
ed in that position from a personal en-
counter in debate with Francis B. Cutting
of New York, which it was believed at the
time would result in duel.
From the House he was elected Vice
President of the United States upon the
ticket with Buchanan. and at the expira-
ton of his term was elected to the United
States Senate.
He is best remembered In that position
from his debate with Senator Baker Of
Oregon, in which he was completely over
thrown.
Soon after this be resigned his seat, and
entered the service of the Confederacy.
He achieved the position of Major-General
and at the collapse of the Confederacy
filled the position of Secretary of War.
He was a brilliant man, and but for the
unfortunate Intervention of the Civil War
bis name might have adorned some of the
brightest pages of American history.

Negroes and Negroes.
Richmond Times.


The New York Sun says that while there
is no very serious opposition among the
White Democrats of North Carolina to
law designed to deprive colored voters OF
suffrage, in Virginia there is much Objec-
ton to a sweeping educational amend
ment. Virginia contains large colored
population" adds the Sun, "many of the
members of which have enjoyed the ad-
vantages of education and have established
homes for themselves and families; these
thrifty colored citizens have little in COM
mon with the negro cotton pickers and
roustabouts so numerous in the Gulf
States"
We have time and again called atten'
ton to this fact, and it is a fact which
must be and will be considered by the
Forthcoming Constitutional Convention
The Virginia negroes as a class are bow
shot beyond the 'cotton pickers and roust-
abouts" of the Gulf States. There are
many trifling negroes in Virginia who are
utterly unfit to vote, and these should he,
and We believe will be, DISTINGUISHED. But
as for the respectable, well-behaved ne
grces who have a ,cumulated property and
who have proven themselves to be good
citizens, they will be treated with consld-
Grafton, and as many as Lave prYven
themselves to be qualified to vote will con-
Nnue to enjoy the right of suffrage. 1t is
the shiltless, vicious and purchasable
negro that the people of Virginia are
after, for il is this class Of negroes that
have given us trouble and these are going
to be eliminated from Virginia politics.

Dallas News, Dem.
The President has appointed about four
teen young Texans TO positions in the
regular army. This ought to assure overly
nervous politicians that our friends in the
army will not willingly see an emperor
fastened on our glorious country. For the
presumption is that every one of them is a
Democrat. Their fathers were and are
such from sole to crown.

F|NAL APPEAL HEARD

Their Side.
HILL BEGINS ARGUMENT 7

Buffalo, June 1s.-The final direct YER
bal plea for another chance before a jury
for Roland B. Molineux. the alleged pois-
oner Of Mrs. Katherine J. Adams and
Henry C. Barnet, and the first half of
the arrangement of the plea in resist
ance were heard by the court of appeals
today. John C. AInburn. representing
AIolineux. spoke nearly two hours and
was succeeded by Ex-senator David 3.
Iiin. whose argument in opposition last
ed until court arose at 2 o'clock. Mr.. Hill
viii close by noon tomorrow. AIr. Mil
burn began with direct attack upon the
policy Of Recorder Goff. He charged the
latter with favoritism toward Assistant
District Attorney Ocborne, whose meth
ods he also questioned, and prejudice
against Attorney Barlow S. Weeks. Sen
ator Hill was equally vigorous. After
explaining his connection with the ap-
peal he reviewed the case and argued
the guilt of the defendant. He strongly
defended the course of Recorder Gof and
Assistant District Attorney Osborne and
the theory and policy Of the prosecution.
Starting with the theories of the people
as to the killing Of Mrs. Adams and Bar
net (cOrrecD he followed them through
their lines Of reasoning and contended for
their stability and acceptance. He in
sisted that the people had the right to
show how Barnet died and insisted that
a complete reconciliation OF the two
cases was impossible. He avowed that
the prosecution was within it's rights in
showing the relations Of Monneux and
his wife prior TO their marriage, and
asserted that it was the people who had
suffered when the recorder ordered the
evidence stricken out. He said Mrs MoIi-
neux had called her marriage q romance
but he called it a tragedy.
Mr.. Hill took up successfully the va
rious mysterious letters written under
the names Of Cornish and Barnet, and,
forcefully adjusting them in their places
in the theory OF the prosecution, dra-
matically proclaimed the alleged guilt of
the prisoner and insisted that the state
had conclusively proven its charge. He
defended Harry Cornish against suspicion
or insinuation and asserted the reliability
Of the mass Of handwriting testimony Of
fered by the state Reviewing the trou-
BILE at the Knickerbocl1er club and con-
A4cSNtA4S Win II vi liAsAl . uS44G4CAdOlOA OF
Diolineux and the Harpster incident, Mr..
Hill proved revenge as the motive of the
plot to kill Cornish and then pictured
jealousy as the motive in the Barnet
case. He pronounced the weight of evil
dence against the accused as overwhelm-
ing and said that DO defense had been
made, because none was possible. NJ Hill
did not touch the disputed law points
and will go into them tomorrow.

A Goddess That Would Not be Won.
The Creator, in making so many kinds
of people. naturally made some that have
immense ambition and desire for work,
physical and mental. Authors, writer's
and brain-workers are generally hard
working people. frequently they exhaust
vitality so fast they cannot rebuild.
Food experts have perfected a special
food called Grape-Nuts for brain work
ers. The makers selected from field
grains the proper elements which natur-
ally enter into rebuilding brain and
nerve centers.

WAS GREETED WARMLY
Urges Students to Make Best
of Opportunities.

Chicago, June 1S.-This was a day Of
much activity at the University OF Chi
cago. At noon the SSth anniversary con
vocation was held in the big convocation
tent and the chief feature Of the program
was an address By John D. Rockefeller,
founder of the institution which is now
celebrating its decenniaI anniversary. A
number of addresses were made by
members of the university. At the close
of Mr.. Rockefener's address President
". R. Harper rendered his decenniaI
statement and then conferred the de-
grees.
Wild cheering greeted Mr. Rockefeller
when he arose TO speak at the uni
versity convocation today. He said:
II am not here to discuss theological
questions such as whether Jonas rela-
ton to the whale was that of tenant or
as the landlord, nor yet the question OF
whether Stephen A. Douglas-au honor
to his memory-or President Harper
was the founder Of the University Of
Chicago. But Of this I am satisfied;
the University of Chicago would not be in
existence today had it not been for the
earnest efforts Of our honored president,
William r. Harper"
Then Mr.. Rockefeller went on to say
that the friends and contributors to the
university could be relied upon to con-
tinue their support.
Great applause followed this statement.
After it had become quiet again the
speaker said ne knew several members Of
the board Of trustees who were about to
make large contributions and again there
was much cheering. Following this
Mr.. Rockefeller began to talk to the
students. He said:
Students of the University of Chicago.
what can I say to you that will enable
you to make the best OF your opportuni-
ties? Whatever your station may be
hereafter, do not fail to turn gratefully
to your families and friends who have
stood by you in your struggle for an
education. entreat you not to forget
them and not TO fail as the years go
past frequently to express your graft
tude and regard, and return to them
proof of the sincerity of your unfailing
appreciation.
I'VE shall continue in the future as
in the past to need great men and women
in the commercial and professional world
but we shall also need just as much
men and women who can and will fill
the humblest positions uncomplainingly
and acceptabIy."

WILL PAClFY INDIANS
Thousand MOrmOns Wish TO settle on
IDdian Lands.

Mexico City. June ia Mormon agent,
James Cannon, is here for the purpose of
securing from the government a conces-
sion for settling a thousand Mormons in
Sonora on the lands from which the
Yaqui Indians have been driven. Mr.. Can
non says:
I'VE believe that If suitable tracts of
lands are placed at our disuosal in the
Yaqui country, we will DO much in this
country in the interest Of peace, for the
Mormon church has faced the Indian
problem almost since its organization.
I'VE require no rifles In our manage
ment of our red brother and are always
instilling into his mind that re are his
friends and not his foes. If the conces-
sion is obtained a commissioner will be
sent at once into the Yaqui territory by
the Mormon church for the purpose of
ascertaining the attitude of the Indians.
and II peaceful a contract will be made
and lands purchased from the Yaquis"
