Prof Alfred Vierkandt, the sociolo-
gist, in an article published in the Ber-
lin Beitschrift fur Socialwissenschaft
upon conditions of race superiority,
gives a great deal of attention to the
United States, where, he says, indie
pendence of character and personal in
itiatiye are illustrated by colossal en-
terprises. He finds one reason for the
freedom from class and race prejudice
which exists in the United States in
the fact that the highest careers are
possible to the individual low in the
social scale if ability is shown. Wheth-
er American race superiority can as
sert itself internationally depends, ac-
cording to Prof Vierkandt, upon recon-
Cling high standard of living with
progeny The professor
says that there is apparently a tendon
cy which discourages large families be
cause of the standard of comfort re-
Quired. -.

AN ARKANSAS SHAKE.

tsThe Arkansas chill is distinctive,

nothing like it in any other state or IN
any other region of the world. have
seen a good many chills, a good many
different types of chills, in my wander

saS product is in a class by itself.
There is the chill, for instance, which
is peculiar to the Ohio valley, and II
you will take my word for it it is no
easy thing on ones system. There is
chill peculiar to the sWampy regions
of West Tennessee, which consists of
series Of lazy yawns, a feeling of
sluggishness and little fever. 1t is a
sort of dumb chill.
But for the genuine chill, the arti-

over into Arkansas. There you will
find the peculiar brand had in mind
when / began this story. It seems. to
be Indigenous to the soil, and, some
how, -tAe people have as many as two
chills day, one in the morning and
one in the evening. / have seen men
have everyday chills and third-day
chills and chills every nine days. I
have seen men engaged in farming in
the st Francis basin shake until they
would jar theFml1d chimneys down at
the end of the shack. They would
simply shake the. whole house, and you
could hear their. teeth rattle a hundred
yards from the house. I heard a man
a few years ago, and he heard a man
say years ago, and he had lived in that

fourths of the crop of red pepper was
consumed every year in an effort to
keep the chills off. They are great be-
levers in red pepper as a remedy for
echills. OF course, Z am not Youching
for this red pepper statement, although
| know personally that the citizens of
the section use it great deal in an
effort to break the chills. How much
OF the crop they use do not know, but
from what I know about the annual
cropeo chills I should say they used a
considerable amount of pepper Qui-
nineAis also in the sections which are
able to support physicians, but red
pepper is the remedy in the out of the

When he would quit shaking he would

The president is not the only hunter

session here for one week has conclud-
ed it's labors. Appropriations for the

Home missions, $426,319; foreign mis-

in Africa was declared by Bishop Hart

said that the Methodists are fighting a

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1902.

If Mrs Mo1ineux had only 5000 when
she left New York, which was given
her by General NIolineux, how is it
that she can cut such a dash in her
new home? That amount would hard
ly purchase the best piano in the mar
ket and furnish gorgeously suites Of
rooms, and buy automobiles and other
things, which the woman is said to be
purchasing. She promises to spring q
sensation very soon. Those who have
been following the AIolineux case will
be anxious to see it sprung.

In the Union Pacific's annual report,
recently issued, says stock marker
critic, it is related that during the last
fiscal year the company increased It's
holdings Of Southern Pacific stock
from S75.OOO,0O0 to $90,000,000 The
additional $15,O00.00O believed to
have been bought in the open market
at an average price of 50, although Oh.
this point the report is silent. The
Union Pacific still needs some $S,0O0,-
600 of Southern Pacific stock to secure
to itself a majority thereof. With its
holdings increased to $90,000,000 there
still remains more than $107 200, 900 in
public hands This situation would
seem at first glance to strengthen the
position of Mr. Keene's bull pool i'll
Southern Pacific a pool which will ex-
pire by Limitation next April; but there
is another side The Southern Pa
cific's report for the last fiscal year
shows that net earnings OF more than
$10,O00,00O We're all used in improve
ments and enough more to cause de-
felt of nearly $1,O00OV0 for the year.
This is significant of nothing in par
ticular except that Mr. Hartman pro-
poses to make Southern Pacific pay for
its own rebuilding. Some $30,O00,000
or $4O,000,000 additional money will
have to be spent in. bringing the South
ern Pacific system up to the Hartman
standards. The Hartman party APP
pears to have abandoned the idea of a
bond issue to meet these improvements.
1t is good policy in the long run, of
course, to meet such extraordinary ex-
penditures out of earnings. but the
point is that this procedure removes
the possibility of dividends on South
ern Pacific into the remote future
This would seem to more than balance
the circumstance in the Keene pools
favor that the Union Pacific people
viii have to buy more stock to secure
absolute control.

The omnibus statehood bill which
passed the house at the last session
will be one of the first measures to be
tackled by the congress which will
come together. in a week or two. In
considering the question presented by
this bill congress ought to discard all
notion that these territories have any
right to statehood, says writer IN
one of the late magazines. Admission
into the Union is admission of a part
ner on absolutely co-equal terms into
a political partnership. The state ad-
mitted helps to govern the other states,
has the same representation in the SEN
ate as the states of larger and more
settled populations, saRd may ffingg dina
doubtful election determine who Shall
be the president and what shall be the
complexion of the house. Such part
nership ought neither to be asked nor
conceded unless it is for the mutual
advantage of both the new state and
the older states into whose political
union it seeks to be received. The
burden of proof is on the applying
state to show that it's admission will
be beneficial to the Union as well as
to itself. It was certainly mistake
for the senate to fix so early date as
the third day of the session for a vote
ON this bill. which ought to be voted
down, unless by general consent the
time for final vote is postponed and
and an opportunity for fuller discus
sion of the question is afforded.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Mrs. Carrie
Nation, the Kansas Joint" smasher,
attended the horse show in Madison
Square Garden yesterday afternoon.
She had occupied her seat but a short
time when her gaze suddenly became
fixed on the box where some of the
Vanderbilt family were sitting. She
was seen to study her programme and
then descend to the promenade.
Stationing herself in front of the box,
where the occupants could not see her,
she began delivering a long TRADE on
the evils OF overdress In the box were
seated Mrs. Alfred G. Vanderbilt, Mr..
Reginald Vanderbilt and his fiancee,
Miss Nelson. Mr.. Alfred G. Wander
bilt was leaning against the rail of the
promenade and did not see Mrs. Ma
ton approach.
you ought to be ashamed of your
selves the woman screamed. You
ought to be ashamed to wear such dis
graceful clothes. Take them off; take
them off at once and attire yourselves
more modest1y."
Mrs. Nation was red in the face and
gesticulated her remarks by eccentric
Wavings and jerkings Of her arms
At this juncture Alfred Vanderbilt
left his position at the rail and came
over to where Mrs Nation was stand
ing, Wiping her forehead with hand
kerchief. He whispered something in
her ear and gently pushed her away.
Mrs. Nations outburst had attracted
considerable number of people, and

Stung by the Infuriated Hornets
,a and Nearly Blinded.

A nest of hornets on the crossing on
the southwest corner of Seventh and
Main streets have been doing land
office business in stinging people the
past week. The hornets have built
their nest right under the little bridge
over the ditch which turns south and
they make a pass to sting almost every
pedestrian that passes that way. Dur
ing the day pedestrians can be seen
moving off into the street until they
pass the danger point. One young
man, Paul William Heinrich. a clerk
in the postoffice, was stung last Sun
day on the eye. A little girl was
stung on the ear. Another gentleman
was stung on the hand and there are
many who have made no report of
their battles with the little pests. 1t
is really dangerous for children and
the city authorities should wage war
on the little pests and drive them out.
