SOLVING THE SEsRo PROBLEM.

The policy declared by the recent
negro convention at Atlanta is practical
and sound and II faithfully followed
will go far toward solving the problem
confronting the colored race. 1t con-
templates the uplifting of the negro
through education and labor. The reso-
buttons adopted say among other things:
ITO promote our material interests and
increase our opportunities for a hveli-
hood we, earnestly recommend to u
people through the country that they
teach their children the dignity and
value Of manual labor and give them IN
industrial education which will enable
them to enter the worlds industries
with Al much knowledge. skill and dex-
terity as members Of other races pos
sess. To secure competent men and
women to lead the race in its struggle
upward, we must encourage the higher
education Of our boys and girls"
This is wise counsel, pointing the only
way in which the colored race can
achieve the place which it's more sa-
gacious leaders are seeking for 1t. The
race has made progress. The experience
of the institutions devoted to the educa-
ton OF the negro shows that it is pos
sible to instill the American idea OF the
dignity Of labor and the value OF thrift
and forehandedness into at least Sc
lected specimens of the colored race. 1t
has shown this so ~conclusiyely that
other solutions Of the negro problem are
falling into the background. While the
material growth OF the race has not
been as marked as the numerical in
crease, yet the results are encouraging.
Many negroes are property owners and
successful business men and as was said
at the Atlanta convention they raise
more cotton under freedom than under
slavery.
The foremost leader OF the colOred
race, Booker Washington. has for years
told them that theirs is an Industrial
and not a social nor a political problem.
On an industrial basis there is a pos
sisnity OF adjusting both races to
II in the course Of time. If the
negroes throughout the country and es-
peeially In the southern states can be
taught 70 take the view OF Booker

oUR FIHANoIAL ExplNsIoN.

The proposition to make New York the
distributing point, the open market for
an entire issue OF Russian government
bonds, amounting TO hundreds Of mil
lions of dollars, is strikingly suggestive
of the financial expansion OF the United
States. 1t is an acknowledgment by
one of the most powerful nations In the
world Of American pre-eminence, or at
least equality, as a financial power. , 1t
win probably be followed by the plac-
ing upon the list Of securities permits

This will tend, says the New York
correspondent OF the Philadelphia Press,
to confirm the view Of those who have
held for some time that the specula-
tive and investment markets OF the
United States are speedily to be the
theater Of very impressive changes.
Heretofore the railway securities domi-
mated, at times TO the exclusion OF every
other security, these markets. The rail-
ways themselves are undergoing some
marvellous transformations as to own
ership and as to financial characteristics
and their future relations to the stock
market cannot be foreseen with abso-
lutte certainty. The most important fact
disclosed in connection with the Rus
sian bonds is that New York is beeom-
ing, II 1t is not already, the financial

HATLEss WOMEN IN CHURCH.
Than the Act Rebuked-
Chicago Tribune.

Last Sunday the Episcopal bishop Of Della
ware rebuked some young women who left
their hats behind them when they went TO
church. The bishop told them their conduct
was unscriptural and unsodly, and hat 1t
looked worse for them 70 attend divine
service with uncovered heads than for men
to do so without their coats. Naturally the
young women were much mortified. 1t Is
not pleasant to be told In public In a place
where one cannot answer back tina once
conduct is unscriptural and ungodly. The
girls meant no offense. They went bonnet
less to church because II was warm weather
and they would be more comfortable with
nothing on their heads.
When 81. Paul told the women OF Corinth
to have their heads covered when praying
or prophesying he gave them advice which
may have been excellent advice for the
unframed, uneducated, unciVilized women to
whom 1t was given, and yet be advice un,
suited 10 the women OF this age. They
didn't Know everything down in JUDGE"
St. Paul could not prescribe the cody
church dress Of the women Of the twentieth
century.
Furthermore, WEaG Paul actually said
was that the woman should do her pray
ing and prophesying with her head yelled.
So II one OF the young women who were
reproved at Rehoboth by the Episcopal
bishop had been hatless, but yelled, she
would have been acting in strict obedience
TO the commands Of the apostle. The
CorinthIan women did not have the elab-
crate headgear Of modern women.
When ST. Paul insisted on wells he prob-
ably did so because he thought II was
decorods and decent for women to have
their faces covered in church. He may
have believed that the spectacle Of many
women with uncovered faces would dis
tract the attention OF the men Of the con-
gregation. Doubtless It did, for even now
the eyes that should be devoutly fixed on
the occupant Of the pulpit are often de.
Voutly fixed on the face OF some fair girl.
An intelligent bishop knows where Paul
was talking for all time and where he
was talking for his wi age only. and will
act accordingly. The sight Of hatless
women in a church will not seem to such a
bishop an ungodly sight. He will rejoice In
* as an indication that his Womsa hearers
cannot gaze enviously at hats handsomer
than their own or be filled with fears as to
whether their own are on just right, and
hence are able to pay much closer atteation
