subject those entertaining such
sentiments to the natural and just
resentment of the whole people.
This impression the Parkhurst
party last week strove to avoid
making. although the delicacy OF
tho situation made it extremely
difficult TO do 20. Their visit,
however, had one good effect in
that it enabled them TO. under
stand the situation here better than
before, and it removed from their
minds much that was unfavorsble
in the impressions Of the South
they. had received ct second hand.
They learned that human nature

An Army Of Millionaires.


The New York Herald has been
taking . census of the millionaires
in this country. and finds 1928 of
them, owning. it is estimated. &c.
100000 900. or one-fifth of the to-
4al wealth Of this country, now gil
Yen at S81, $50. 100000. The asto-
nishing growth of milliouairism is
evidenced by the fact that in the
first quarter Of the last century
there were but two millionsires in
American, John Jacob Aston in
New York and Stephen Girard in
Philadelphia.
Nsarly al the immense fortunes
in America have been made by
their ovpsra The Herald finds
that.67 per cent Of the million
aires are self-msde men, many Of
whom started from the very bot
con. and that only . small fraction
inhssitsd any considerable sum

Ailliooairss have come from ell

Per cent inherited, IL per cent
from railroads and steamboats,, 10
per can't from banking, 6 per cent

from other sources. What will
naturally cause surprise is the fact
that agriculture. the chief source
OF wealth in the country, has con-

the millionAires. Apparently q

coming rich BY mining - BY farm

Beaumont, Tex. April 30. Keen
interest was awakened here to-
oighE BY . report that an oil flow
he'd heen struck near Sulphur, q
posto&cs situated not far from
Lake Charles, in Cslcasieu parish,
La. on the Southern Pacific rail-
way.
The report was indefinite in
chssucter and nothing specific
could be ascertained regarding
the rumor.
Tslegraphic dispatches state
that the rumor of the oil discovery
at Sulphur station is current in
Lake Charles.
Beaumont has been stirred by
the report, even in its indefinite
shape. Public sentiment here il
unanimous that If the rumor il
verified, It will demonstrate con
clusivsly that the oil field in thi'
section is exceedingly large snf
practically inexhaustible.

To Educate The South.


accompanied by DIR. Parkhurst'
the dramatic New York reformer,
made a visit to the Caroline, Geor-
gia and Alabama last week, in
speeding the educational advsn-
tsges Of the sections through
which they journeyed- The party
was said to have Represented many
millions of capital, and while they
did not submit to many inter-
views, yet they frankly declared
their purpose to be to look into
conditions in the South with .
view to aiding in some way in the
education of the masses. After,
they had gone over the field they
spoke in a very friendly spirit OF
conditions as they saw them, and
of the need for better facilities for
giving both whites and blacks the
opportunity of securing primary
education. DR.. Parkhurst, disco
vered,- like many other sincere
Northerners who have taken the
trouble to post themselves upon
the situation, that the reconstruo-
tion legislation by which the me-
gro was the right of suffrage was
q grave blunder. and he did not
hesitate to 30 express himself
All the members of the expedition
manifested the frieudliest spirit
towards the Southern white peo-
pie and made many compliments
~ references to the work they
done in behalf of the education OF
the negro, and they acknowledged
that after all, the Southern white
man best understands the negro,
and hence is best competent to
solve the race problem to the high
est interest of ell concerned.
The South is not stretching ont
her hands for charity when il
comes to the matter of educating
her people, nor does she deny the
fact that her free school system
has not yet reached the perfection
which she expects to attain. She

THE SPECUL4TORs AT WORK.

The theatrical ticket spectators, pre-
dcted have not gone out OF business. nor is the
fight against them won. They reappeared last
night at several OF the theatres. At some OF the
houses no opposition offered to the practice OF
their trade no resistance having been shown. in
deed from the beginning. At Weber & Fields's
Music Hall they present in good force. but the
speculator who has been mentioned working
under the sanction of the management was not
among them The police had to be called upon to
keep them within their bounds or. rather, without
their bounds: that IS 10 say. to keep them from In
front of the door OF the theatre. They did not do
good business Even where the spectators are
now found, they have lost good deal of their Gus
tomary aggressive insolence, and are not behaving
themselves in the disorderly and insulting manner
which is so familiar to all theatregoers. The
present agitation is be credited thus far with a
little green fruit. II remains 70 be seen whether
