TUE OLD FIGHT RENEWED.

We see definitions of what a gentle
man is. How will this answer. He is
a man Of truth, honor, urbanthy- un-
s~elishness, true manners, self-respect,
conscientiousness, kind, sympathetic
n noble in his impulses. More might
be added, but II a man possess all the
qualities indicated, If he is not a gen.
hleman what is he and how should he
be designated? In a high sense how
many men are indeed gentlemen. And
this reminds US Of what we have often
stood in the past, that woman and wo-
manhood were the right terms to be
used. It is thought by some that If
you would refer to women Of the best
style. character and intelligence you
must designate them by the very
often abused and much over-used
ladies" The word lady" is Anglo
Saxon, and means bread-keeper. That
is what it meant once. Now it sweeps
out and takes in every female includ-
ing, of course. the negro women as
we'll. You may hear now an inquiry
by a negress Of this sort: The lady
at the door wants to see the woman in
the house" Lady" means wife, the
female head of the house. or a woman
of social rank or position. Woman is
also Anglo-Saxon. 1t is the female OF
the human ace. It expresses a great
deal when properly understood. We see
it mentioned that DR.. J.. L. M. Curry.
of the Peabody Fund, ia a recent ad-
dress at Greensboro condemned the
using Of female" in place of "wo-
man. He held that it lacked dis
Effectiveness, and was applied to all
animals. Wal upon female" and
.slady'' is no new thing. It has been
waged for a half century. we dare say,
and perhaps for a great deal longer.
A noble woman is mans blessing. The
womanhood OF h United States Is tc
be its saving grace under Gods
and blessing.

SOME NAMES on THE GOVERN

The Atalanta Constitution has a
valuable correspondent at Washing
ton, Mr.. Jos. Oil. In a recent letter
he gave some figures and names as to
people under United States govern
ment pay. The Government Blue Book
tells the story of names. On il there
are 2,700 Smiths, and of these there are
but 400 with plain John prefxed. The
Jones family is TO the front. There
are over 1900 on the rolls. while Brown
and Johnson are following close behind
with their 1000 each Uncle George
Washington had no descendants, but
there are so Washingtons all the same
