Latest Idea In Fashionable Wrist
Bags For Women.
Among the fashionable accessories of
the feminine costume which have been
named in honor Of the coming royal
ceremonies in England is the corona
ton wrist bag" which in its newest
and smartest form is of walrus hand
somely mounted in gilded silver, says
the Philadelphia Times: The bag is
somewhat narrower at the clasp than
at the bottom, where it has a pointed
effect. An artistic coronation bag in
beige covered walrus has a clasp of
gilded silver which also forms the
chain and the graceful scroll orna-
mentation applied along the bottom of
the front of the bag.
The bag closes with two acorns form
ed of turquoise nuts set in cups of the
gi!ded silver. The front of the bag is
arranged with a flap which opens with
a turquoise labochon button. revealing
a pocket to receive the handkerchief.
The lining is of MORE silk, the delicate
beige tint Of which harmonizes with
the ivory hue Of the leather.
Equally artistic is a coronation bag
of black walrus similarly adorned with
silver edged mountings and scroll orna
mentation and acorn cups holding
amethyst nuts. the deep luminous pur
pie of which, is repeated in the color Of
the MORE lining. A bag of tan walrus
is still another variation Of these arts

Passionate Another Year.
From Saturdays Daily Gazette.
At the fourth quarterly conference
Ct the First Methodist church, held
last evening under the presidency OF
Presiding Elder Rev. G. d. King, A.
NJ, the following resolution was unan-
imously adopted:
Resolved: That this fourth quar-.
terly conference desires to express it's
high estimate Of the intellectual and
spiritual ministrations Of our pastor,
the Rev. DR.. Allen. We are convinced
that few congregations in this state
are permitted to listen to a superior
ministry.
Further realizing the perplexing
condition we were in as a church when
DR.. Allen came, owing to the sudden
and unexpected removal of our former
pastor, the Rev. DR.. Stull, we also
express u appreciation of our pas
tors labor and ability in %financering
and securing so large a subscription at
the reopening of the church.
I'VE recognize the diff
ficult problems which have been plac-
ed upon III al a board, must have been
equally trying to him as to us; and
we believe that the best interests of
the church will be served by the re-
turn of u pastor for another year;
therefore we most heartily request
DR.. Allen to return to us, and desire
that our presiding elder So express
u wishes to the bishop at the ensu-
ing conference in the cabinet meet

The Issue in a Nutshell.

New York World
 Three very brief declarations of the dominant Republican belief in regard to trusts and the tariff are worth more in defining the policy of that party than are yards of patformitudes, adopted to throw dust in the eyes of the people.
 The tariff is good enough as it is.- Senator Hanna.
 We deny that the Dinglcy tariff breeds and shelters trusts.-Revised Republican platform in Speaker Henderson's district.
 Let well enough alone-All the party organs.
 To these declarations all the great trusts and monopolies subscribe.
 The average Dingley duty of 45 per cent, on iron and steel products Is good enough" for the Steel Corporation. It's annual dividends of $110000, 900 are well enough for those who share them.
 The prohibitive Dingley duties on cat tie, beef. sheep. mutton, eggs and all other food products are good enough for the beef combine and the meat merg- CT.
 The Dineley duties on sugar, that give the trust monopoly of our markets and enhance the price far above the cost of sugar in England or in Europe, are well enough, for the trusts and its political stockholders.
 But
 Are these laws and the conditions which they invite and the monopolies which they protect good enough for the people? This Is the paramount ques- tion" to be answered by the voters this year,

HOW CAN THEY AGREEp

Recently in Abilene, Kan, a Jury in q breach of promise case brought in a yer Adict for $6sOO. with this result, as told ln The Kansas City Journal:
 The jury got at its verdict in just tw en- 1y minutes. But now an application for a new trial has been made. It is alleged that the jury arrived at the sum s.lov ed as damages by each juror giving his per- sonal idea of what damages ought to be, after which the sums were added together and divided by twelve. The Supreme Court of Kansas has held that this sort of verdict will not stand: that it is a way of arriving at conclusion which falls to express the honest convictions of n single juror.
 Perhaps 1t Is true that this verdict does not represent the convictions of a single juror, but will that Supreme Court tell how twelve men. all differing honestly on the amount of damages to be award ed, can agree on a verdict and all retain their convictionsr Suppose, for example, that each of the twelve men had fixed in his own mind sum which he believed was just and right and that all these sums were different. Then suppose that one man was able to bring all the others 10 his way of thinking-would the verdict he strictly in accordance with the con- Nictions of those eleven men, or any one of them?
 We do not know what the courts or laws of Kansas require of jury. but we do know that in all questions involving money damages there will be differences of opinion among individual jurors as to what is just and right. and We must as sume that each juror is honest in his opinions and convictions. How are they 10 agree on a verdict in such cases except by compromise? And unless there is such compromise, can there ever be a verdict, except on rare occasions? We suppose if this Abilene jury had cast lots. thrown heads and tails. played a game of poker. or resorted to any like methods to ensure an agreement, the Supreme Court would have put the ban of it's .disapproval on the result just the same. In fact, we fail to see how dis agreeing jurors can arrive at a verdict in Kansas.

Shown to Be in Error.

Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.
 The President might do well to think more and talk less. or at least to study the subject more carefully, to be more sure of his ground. before he speaks
 In his Cincinnati speech he declared that "the products of many trusts are unprotected and would he entirely un- affected by change in the tariff, or at most sligh. -'" He gave as ex-- amnIes the Stgr .' oil Company. and the anthracite coal corporations, assert ing that there is mo duty whatever on anthracite coal"
 Immediately those who claimed to know better camc forward with correc- tions. and # was shown that on anthra- cite coal imported from Wales the duty of 67 cents a ton is collected It was ad- mitted that different paragraphs of the coal schedule seem to be contradictory, but the interpretation of the general ap- praisers. after consulting the Congress sional Record of June 30. 1897. Is thus quoted: Ut will be seen that the propo- stion to impose a duty of 6I cents per ton on all coals containing 92 per cen tum of fixed cartoons was expressly in- tended to cover anthracite coal The Philadelphia Record also points out that there is a duty on petroleum in all cases equal to that imposed by the country which produced it, often exceeding 40 per cent, and concludes: Tt is unfor- tunate for the Presidents contention that the two trusts which he specifics as beyond all reach by revision or the tariff are both highly protected under the Dingley tariff"

nnaaoEg PHYSICAL CONDITION
Body and Mind Have Been Gradually
 Deteriorating Since the War.

New York Medical Record.
 Tuberculosis has, in recent years, be- come so prevalent among the negroes as to justify the belief that it may soon be ceptfoility of negroes to consumption has apparently undergone a most remarkable change within the last thirty or forty years. During the days of slavery the disease was so seldom found among them that they were considered almost inn mune to it. Tn fact, some of the oldest writers took the stand sduarely, and as- serted that consumption was unknown to be almost unknown, it has. in sin gle generation. become so prevalent ana so fatal that now more negroes Tn the South are dying of tuberculosis than of any other dsease. While 1t exists among all classes, 1t is in the densely populat- ed quarters of town and cities, where they live in over-crowded and poorly ven- tilated houses. that it Is found to he most frequent. In institutions where large num- bers are more or less closely confined, truly alarming.
 The following quotation from a paper on the "Future of the Colored Race in the United States published some teresting in this connection. He says, '.AH the information which I have been able to obtain has satisfied me that the race was a healthy one, even healthier In the main than the whites. Since the war things have been reversed: the col ored race as a race is not healthy and robust one; their vitality Is in stage of unstable equilibrium, liable from any undue strain to give way Statistics from institutions, having both white and colored patients, will show that the lat ter is less able to resist the onslaught of disease. Dr. Mitchell the Superin- tendent of the Mississippi State Insane Hospital. in his last report says: There ta rr.. hats ~ TOT . as regards mortality, and although our treatment, both dietetic and medical, is the same. our loss from deaths among the colored far exceeds that sustained by the whites
 Turning from the physical condition of the negro, let us now investigate the mental stability of the race. Since 1860 the negroes in this section. and the same Is true of the South generally. have un- dergone such change in their tendency as Is shown by no other people in a similarly short period of time in the whole history of mankind. l will take the statistics of our own State, Georgia, typical Southern State. as they will prob ably be of more interest to this society than would those of the whole United States. In forty years the total negro population in the State has been little more than doubled, while the number of insane has increased twentyfold. No oth- CT such rapid and radical change in the mental stability of a race is recorded in history. This outburst of insanity be- comes still more remarkable when we consider that for generations prior to 1860 the colored people had been free from mental disease. It has developed there fore, without the slightest hereditary taint
 I cannot leave this subject without call ing attention to one more danger which is threatening the negro at this time, that is, the drug habit

MISFIT CANDIDATES.

The Republicans will have some dif- ficuity Tn reconciling the difference of opInlon between their nominees for Gov eI nor and Lleutenant-Governor, MesSrs. smith and Lane, the former attacking the suffrage clause in the constitution. and the latter upnoIoing 1t. With two lead horses pulling in opposite directions, iI will require no prophet to toreteiI that they will draw and quarter the party be- tore the election Is over without the as- sistance or the Democrats.-hunIsvllle Democrat
 All the wonderful assimilative powers with which the Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor is so well equipped will be needed before this campaign is over. He has always shown a remark able power for adapting himself to po- litical conditions, but he now has the hardest job he ever tackled. He was an ardent advocate of the new Constitution, and especially of the suffrage clause which barred the colored voter. MT. Smith, if he has not been misquoted, op- poses tEat feature of the Constitution. and if he had the power, would set it the colored vote.
 MT. Lane has also been the advocate of clean white Republican party in Ala bama, but if candidate Smith has ever favored such a movement it was alto gether in his mind. Now that he has been nominated by convention entirely composed of white men, he may give a passive support to the movement, but we have no reason to believe that he really favored the elimination of the negro.
 There are other points of difference as marked as those we have mentioned, and if candidate Lane can reconcile himself to such antagonistic conditions, he will add a new proof of political adaptiveness to the many he has already gwen the public. We imagine he holds his nose when he reads what the head of the ticket thinks of the Constitution and it's requirements.

In North Carolina.
Washington Post.


 "1he independent movement in North Carolina" said Hon. F. NJ. Simmons, United States Senator Wom that State, at the Riggs House, will not prove a success. It is really nothing more than the old coalition of the forces that are always arrayed against the Democracy. aided here and there by some disgrunt- led Democrat
 "The opposition, knowing it could not win on the old lines. imagined that by appealing to the people under the guise of a so-called independent organization, the voters might be induced to turn their backs on the Democratic party. It was the voice of the siren. but it falls on deaf ears, and North Carolina will stand loy- ally Democratic. The attempt to make the people believe that their salvation lies in a high protective tariff, which is the chief program of the independents. is likewise futile. for if there is a State in the Union that is thoroughly committed to the idea of a tariff for revenue, that State is North Carolina"
