LEGISLATURE

The Senate was in session less than

ing for keeping open the law library

MONDAY EVENING. DEC. /, 1902

A MAN once upon time walked INTO
n museum and took off his hat and bowed
before statue of Jupiter. A bystander
asked the reason for his procedure, when
the man replied that heather mythology
might become popular again, and if it
did he would have friend. The wild
assertion of Mr.. John Wise, in Richmond
on Saturday to the effect that he is the
only friend the negro now has left, is on
a par with many other of bis absurdities
and paradoxes. The negro, politically,
has seen his day. He is about as much
a factor in the makeup of this State as is
Jupiter Ammon in theology. His last
act was his appearance as an ally OF the
late William Malone, and Mr.. Wise in
the short-liyed readjuster craze, which
threw Virginia back many years, and
from which she was long time recu-
perating. The man who DOTTED his hat
to the statue died in the course of time,
and never realized his dream of seeing
Others reverence Jupiter. Mr.. Wise
will die without seeing the negro in
position to do him or any one else anypoli-
teal good, and his efforts to cajole the
colored race, the sincerity of which may
be reasonably questioned, is akin to the
stupidity of hen who sits on china
egg. Like all his other slip-ups in past
years, Mr.. Wise became greatly exas-
perated because Chief Justice Fuller
and Judge Waddill did not view the
Virginia constitution through his spec
tacles and rightfully dismissed the case
he was urging. The instrument, by this
action, is relieved of all questions as to
its validity, and hk bombastic rawlings
will prove but harmless thunderbolts.
The new constitution has come to stay.

A Big Transaction.

London, Dec. 1.-The Morgan ship
ping combine will today pay $25, OOO,-
900 in cash, beside stock, In the conf
bine for the transfer of the White Star
line shares. Three hundred sharehold-
ers will be the recipients of the money.
The transaction has not necessitated the
shipment of an ounce of gold from
America. The money was lodged in
Morgan's bank and will be distributed
by check. In this way it will not affect
the financial situation in the least.

THE republicans are growing holder
and more arrogant every day. But a
short time ago they said the tariff would
be revised by its friends and that the
trusts would be regulated. Now they
have changed their tune. Senators Hale,
FRYE and Others say the talk of tariff
revision is absurd and that the tariff will
not be changed unless Congress loses its
head and Senator Hanna goes bowshot
beyond them, for in discussing the trust
question last night at the Arlington, in
Washington, he said 'Itwould beunwise
for the republicans to push bill that
would tend to unsettle business. II
isn't time to discuss the trust question.
The shortness of the session makes it
doubtful about the passage of trust legis-
lation. Generally speaking, should
say it would be unwise to try to pass any
bill that would tend to destroy or sensi-
bly, diminish the great business prosper
ity which we are now enjoying"

CAPT. WISE having been completely
knocked out in his attempt to invalidate
the State constitution now processes to
have great concern for the negroes
(whom he formerly spoke of as competi-
tors with monkeys for chestnuts) and
says, 81 am the only friend the negro
has left, and will keep up the battle
for his rights as long as there is ray of
hope" OF course he means hope of
getting the fees which the poor negroes
are being taxed to pay him.

THERE are many Virginia democrats
who would not lose much sleep were
certain clauses of the new constitution
declared invalid, but they do not want
the suffrage clause touched, nor do they
want Mr.. Wise to have anything to do
with altering, amending or invalidating
the constitution or any section thereof.

CAUTION.

This is not a gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally known
and remedy that has had the largest
sale of any medicine in the world since
1868 for the cure and treatment of Con-
sumption and Throat and Lung troubles
without losing its great popularity all
these years, you will be thankful we call
ed your attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
Others that are cheap and good for light
colds perhaps, but for severe Coughs
Bronchitis, Croup-and especially for
Consumption, where there is difficult
expectoration and coughing during the
nights and mornings, there is nothing
like German Syrup. The rs cents size
has just been introduced this year.

Sunday In England.

Few people are aware how strict a
Sabbath is still legally ordained in
England. The Lords day observance
act forbids not only Sunday trading.
but also every possible occupations
walking, riding. rowing or any game
and strictly enjoins upon all subjects
over nine years of age attendance at
church. At the opening of every as
size the royal proclamation for the
preservation of morality is read. Peo-
pie who are then present for the first
time are astonished to hear that the
monarch forbids and calls upon the
magistrates to punish absence from di-
vine service ON Sundays, any playing
of cards or other games Of chance or
haunting of public houses on the same
day. Everybody found in an inn DUR
ing service hours is liable to fine of
80 cents, the landlord to a penalty Of
$40, and for a successful prosecution
church wardens are entitled to a re-
ward of $40. AS recently as 1864 Isaac
Walton, manservant, was fined $3.50
for refusing to attend church on Sun
day when ordered there by his mis-
tress. About the same time mother
was prosecuted by her son and actual
ly imprisoned for not attending church.

Don't Do 1t "Just For Now,


Many young people form habits
which cripple and handicap them for
life by doing things lust for now"
They let things drop wherever they
happen to be lust for now," thinking
that they will put the book, the tool.
the letter or the article of clothing lat
er where it belongs. When these young
people grow up to manhood and wom-
anhood, they find that the habit of
putting things down anywhere Just
for now has become a tyfant that fills
their lives with confusion and disor-
der. 1t takes no more time or effort
to put a thing where it belongs in the
first place than it does later, perhaps
less, and the chances are that IL you
do not do so at the proper time you
never will. Even If it costs you a lit
tie inconvenience at the moment to
put everything in its proper place, To-
do everything at the proper time, the

you cultivate in this way will increase
