stamps his feet to mark time.
When the alarm was rung in there
was not another horse in the house who
acted as quickly as Joe. He never
waited for the chain in his stall to
drop: but stopped and crawlel under 1t.
Then he would dash over to the engine,
slip his head through the collar and
be ready to leave the house in less
than five seconds.
The men of the company taught him
to pick up his collar from the floor,
and place it on his own neck. They
also taught him to ring the dormitory
bell by yanking q rope with his teeth.
but he seemed to take such delight
in rousing the men out Of their beds
that it was found necessary to remove
the bell rope. They taught him to do a
cake walk and to waltz and to bow and
answer questions with a shake Of the
head.
Joe has been placed in rear stall in
the engine house, where he pines for his
mate. who has also been condemned.
While Joe will be kept at the engine

day. will occupy his old stall. Later on
Joe Patrick Maher, captain of Engine
Company {. who is away on his vaca-

night by a friend who hopes to save
Joe to the company for another year.
The captain will probably come home
and see what can be done for the old
fellow.
The men who Is worrying most over
Joe is Lieutenant Jack Sullivan, of
Truck /, whose quarters adjoin those of
Engine I. Sullivan taught Joe to pick
out the American flag and the green
flag from a dozen flags thrown on the
floor. After placing all Of the flags on
the floor Sullivan would say: Which is
the most glorious flag on earth?" and
the horse would answer the question by
picking up the American colors in his
mouth and waving them. Then Sui
livan would tell Joe to pick out the flag
that his friend Jack Carrall was born
under and the horse would raise the

JOE on THE RETIRED LIST.

Joe, the wisest horse in the fire de-
partment, has been condemned, which
means that his days of going to fires
are over. In consequence of this news a
cloud of gloom hangs over the engine
house of Company Z, at Centre and
Chambers streets.
Just how long Joe has been a fire

day, but it is conceded that he has been

has taken a prize at the horse show
and he holds the fire department record
for getting into harness quicker than
any horse that has ever ran to fire.
He and Frank, his mate. are big sor-
rels.
Joe" said Lieutenant Bundrick yes

fall in love with. If you asked him to
shake hands he would raise his right
foot and offer it to you just like dog
would offer you his paw. If any Of the
men belonging to the company was Ill

And he could count from one to

son. "He was just like circus horse.
If you asked him how many days in the

and waited. while the calm Chinaman
carried her card to Mrs. Anderson.
This was repeated several times. un-
til the ladies were quite satisfied that
Wing was perfect in his role.
That evening at half-past I the bell
rang. Wing shuffled majestically to
the door, while mother and daughter
hung breathlessly over the banisters
to watch the result of their teaching.
They heard a gentleman's voice ask
if the ladies were at home. They saw
Wing present his tray and received a
card with an air which made them
mentally pat each other on the back,
and then they saw him draw card
from his sleeve.
"Mine!" gasped Miss Anderson. 1.-The
one we used for the lesson!'
Wing compared the two carefully.
and returning the one which the caller
had just handed him. he remarked
blandly: 'Tickee no good. No can

GEN. ROBERTS ISSUES A CARD
Makes Announcement of His Candidacy For Congress
i'm the First District.

In confederation Of my position, | have
only to refer to the fact that only a few
days ago. a delegation of the best edu-
Gated negros of the South waited upon
President Roosevelt to solicit his aid in
behalf of the measures pending in Con-
gross to defeat the purposes of the
amended Constitution of several of the
Southern States, which restrict the suf-
frage of the negro. This negro commit
tee also went before the committee of
Congress which has these measures in
charge. The education of these promi-
ncnt negroes does not teach them that
the only hope of good government, peace
and prosperity for both races in the
Southern States depends upon a restrict
ed suffrage for their race for a great
number of years. Again, the comforting
upon the negro the privileges of educa-
ton irresistibly hastens the social
equality of the races, leads to miscege-
nation, confusion and destruction OF so
cicty, with untold evils which every good
citizen must depl0re. There is in the
heart of a vast majority of the negro
race an over weening desire for social
equality. Possibly this is natural. but
the preservation of the civilization of the
South demands that it be resisted to the
bitter end. There is a place in our in
Custrial condition for the negro and he
is valuable in his place, but that place
is not in the learned profession. among
the elite of society. or as a social COM
paniOn. Educated, he is less adapted for
the place where his services are most

all the means at our command. But rCa-
son, common sense, experience justice
and our economic and industrial condi-
tions constrain me to take the position
that it is folly and madness, insanity and
suicide to extend the same equal privi-
eges of education to the negro race by
taxation. In the first place. the negro
is not like the white race, and the reason
is, because God has not made them alike
1t is not the fault of the negro. The
leopard cannot change his spots nor the
Ethiopian his skin. Secondly, only two
years ago in order to free ourselves from
certain intolerable and unbearable evils,
destructive alike to the best interests of
both races. brought about in the coun-
ties with large negro populations by the
unfortunate acknowledgements of the ne
gro, we were forced to make an effort to
amend the State Constitution. The main
provision incorporated in the amend
ment, to remedy the evils we were suf
fcring, was, the educational qualifica-
ton in order to eliminate the great mass
Of negroes from the electorate. Now by
this howl for universal education, it is
proposed to destroy the only provision
in the amended Constitution which gives
any protection to decent government in
tho negro ridden counties, and thus place
them in the same position they were be-
fore the Constitution was amended. 1t
is idiotic to suppose that the negro edu-
Gated will not continue to vote against
every interest of the white and against
his own interests in these negro coun-
ties, and every other county just as he
has done for more than a third of a
century. The negro is by nature and
instinct opposed to the white race. He
thinks he must hold the Offices and gov
