inherent virility survived it.
There was a time when Jews were
held as a pledge to secure the debt OF
another with whom they had no con-
Germ. They were not allowed TO hold
real estate. They were forbidden the
poor privilege of a separate burial
ground for their race. They could not
trade except in certain geographical
limitations. To them the right of re-
ligfous freedom was denied. They
could neither vote nor testify as Wit
nesses in a contested election case.
They were frequently mobbed, and
their property destroyed by men with
blackened faces and otherwise dis
guised. And so general was the feel
ing against them that lawyers OF
standing could not be engaged to de-
fend their causes. In States where
they had been put on a footing Of civil
equality. the right was in some cases
most fiagrantly withdrawn, and as late
as 10 years ago it took legislation TO
clothe them with their political priyi-
Ieges. But today, with them, this is
largely matter of history.
They have .cruciffed persecution on
the cross of thrift and economy, and
they control with a master hand the
financial markets Of the world. 1t is
currently reported that they own four
sevenths Of the capital of New York.
The Roman Catholics have also felt
tbe iron heel of this MOlOch race preju-
dice, but they are too strong for it
now. and from them it skulks away in
the dark as the whipped and chastened
cur Wealth is strength, and it con-
sists of character, property, and edu-
cation. Armed with this weapon,
cause becomes invincible, and before
if opposition disappears and melts
away as the ripened wheat before the
laundering cyclone. 1t has never lost

progress in every cline under the sun.
With it as our watchword we, too, shall

1t would be the work of superOga-
ton for me to indulge in the history
of this remarkable event. 1t has been
discussed by orators and writer's fOI
nearly forty years, and to repeat any
Of it now would rather raise the pre-
sumption that I underestimate your

at the very moment when the Thir-

States and the whole subject Of their
reconstruction, it was found that Dill

But it is argued by those who are
seeking, by tricks and chicanery, to
disfranchise the colored man, that the
ballot in his hand has been failure,
and he has shown an unfitness to pos
sess so precious a right. If the ballot
is intended to be used as
A weapon which comes down as still
AS snowfiakes fall upon the sod;
But executes a freeman's will,
As lightning does the will of God,
and TO preserve the rights OF all con-
sistent with the principles under which
they live and have their being, l think
those who make this argument had
better beware, for their present propa-
ganda rather indicates, if not their un-
fitness to use the ballot, at least their
ability to pervert its use into an instru-
ment for partisan and wholly unlawful
ends.
These same orators do not hesitate
to say that the cOlored man has used
it against them and against their in
terest. [ am sorry to hear that any
set of Americans are willing to deprive
another of the ballot because he does
not agree with them in sentiment.
Nav be their sentiments are antagO-
nistic to his rights, to his freedom OF
speech. freedom of action, and his gen
eraI welfare.
1t would be unlike a man worthy OF q
home in this free country to be willing
to vote for any man OF set OF men
who make no secret of their hostility
to his civil rights. But this contention
on the part of those who are assaillng
the ballot fully shows they do not
comprehend the true meaning Of man
hood rights in a free Republic.
The colored man is their best friend
even in the use and exercise Of the
elective franchise He always votes
the Republican ticket, when lie IS per
mitted to vote at all, in the South
and it is now admitted on all side
that neither that nor any other section
of the country can prosper unless tha
party is in power The Democrats o
the South now cOncede this to be
fact. So. if voting the RepublicaI
ticket. he votes against the way the

LeRnl Clothes.

Possibly the strike of the ladies'
tailors and a consequent slackness in
ladies' fashions, may account for the
fact that Paris has lately been taking
a particular interest in masculine, not
feminine, attire. After the question
of the frock coat has come that of the
top hat. The headgear which remained
pre-eminent throughout the nineteenth
century is said now to be doomed, by
a dictate, not of fashion, but of the
authorities. 1t must at once be added
that the top hat has not been pro-
scribed throughout the length and
breadth of the land, but only in one
commune of France. The mayor Of
this locality has issued an edct threat
ening pain of fine and imprisonment,
as the hat in question is undemocratic.
French municipal magnates are dis
playing a great zeal for regulating cos
tune, and the present is only one of a
series of edicts on dress in various
towns in France. One mayor had
vetoed the wearing of 'bloomers" by
ladies within the limits of his juris-
diction, and several others had issued,
in their respective communes, enact
ments prohibiting priests from appear
ing in public in their clerical garb,
before the latest local tyrant took
arms against the top hat.

GUESSING AT THE ADS"

Form of Puzzle Working Devised by a
Now York Young Woman.
A new game is being played on the
upper west side by young people, says
the New York Sun. 1t is an outgrowth
of the immense amount of pictorial
advertising which is being done in all
the newspapers. magazines and street
cars and elevated trains. Almost all
articles which have sale that is
more than purely local, whether they
be books, corsets, gloves. magazines,
crackers. pickles. hair tonics, stove
polishes. or liniments, have nowadays
some pictures which have become
identified with them in the public
mind through seeing them in all sorts
of public places. This led a certain
young woman, who was at loss for
something new to do for an evenings
entertainment to work out a game.
She collected lot of magazines and
cut from the back pages all the ad-
verusing pictures, carefully removing
any hint of the article advertised,
which was not part of the picture
itself. Then she selected thirty-six of
them and pasted them on cards, CIV
ing to each number. These she
strung around her parlors and when
her guests arrived they were put at
work to find out what the pictures ad-
vertisad. Some of the pictures were SO
familiar that the task was not difficult
and yet 1t was surprising to find how
confusing 1t all was to the puzzle
workers. Pictures that seemed fami-
liar were mighty elusive when it
came to Identifying them among
thirty-six others. The soap ads got
dreadfully mixed up. and so did the
hair restorers, II the pictures were
ever published labeled the way most
of the guests guessed there would
have followed whole lot of trade
mark infringement suits. The girls
were very much better at the work
than the young men, presumably be-
cause the articles advertised were
mostly household things and so of
more interest to the fair sex than to
their brothers. OF the thirty-six pic
lures the highest number guessed was
twenty-five and this was by one of the
young women.

There Is no genuine shirtwaast
weather yet, but womankind is e,i
IDENTIFY determined to be equipped for
the pleasant season when 1t does come.
Petticoated purchasers now stand
three deep about the counters where
the new cotton blouses are displayed.
Shirt manufacturers have learned to
cater to every taste by producing no
less than a dozen varieties of this in
valuable garment, ranging from the
perfectly plain percale and duck to
organdie and fancifully trimmed silk
madras garments. There is no tenden-
cy to reinaugurate the use of the
stiff white linen collar Contrasting
and fanciful neckties hang cheek by
jowl with the shirts, and no woman
can escape the hint. Sleeves, as is only
natural. are inclined to the bishop
shape, to wrist puffs or double cuff eff
fects. and bosoms still pouch little
and hang in soft fullness. Last au-
tumn, when the new flannel waists
were put on the counters, the women
who rushed In to buy turned away in
disgust, for the manufacturers had
daringly tried to force tight fitting
shirt. The sacrificial sales of tight
flannel shirtwaists now forced at the
retail shops have impressed the mer-
chants with sense of their own help
lessness in choosing the mode, and
among the percale and toll du nord,
and brown batiste and colored French
linen shirts not one basque-like model
is seen.
Pretty sailor blouses are evidently
going to play a part this spring for

cotton examples are being brought up
