A Story of Phil May.

An amusing story is told of Phil May
and an English conjurer at the fair at
Standardization, a the New York
Tribune, Phil was in the crowd which
had gathered to watch a very lever
gentleman who was wrapping up SOW
ereigns n half own in pieces of pa
per and selling them for two shillings.
The sharp had a beautiful face-such
a face as Phil May owed to draw. So
he Sketch6d him furtively. But the
gentleman saw him, and made a speech
forthwith.
IF that there celebrited portrit paint
up the picter, the equally celebrited
beneefactor to 'oomanity wot is given
away guilds for coppers will reward i'm
accordingly" he shouted.
Phil, with a twinkle in his eye, hand
ed up the drawing. The conjurer was
delighted with the sketch and pinned 1t
to the tailboard of his cart. With an
other preliminary speech. he threw
three sovereigns, three half sovereigns
and several half crowns into a piece of
paper, screwed it up and handed it to
the artist. You'll be president Of the
bloomin' R'yal Academy some dwye,
young man." said he. Here. catch."
ga bargains a bargain" said Phil,
walking off with the packet of gold and
SILVER.
He confessed afterward. hen he
opened the packet and found two pen
MES and a halfpenny in it, h a it was
the most entertaining commission he
had aver been paid for.

An AWFUL
A Startling Medical View of the
Fourth of July Tragedies.

The press Of the country has been di-
sulting from the modern Fourth of July
celebration. 1t has been shown repeat
edly that more people are killed and in
jured OF every Fourth than in any bat
tie of the SaniSh-American war. Now
comes a medical paper, The Journal of
the American Medical Association, with
the most impressive array of Fourth of
July accidents ever published. 1t shows
that in consequence of the debauch on
the last national powder day 415 people
We're victims of lockjaw, that 60 others
died from other wounds caused by fire
works, and that nearly 1000 sever but
no mortal injuries were due to eXplo-
slVeS. The blank cartridge and the toy
pistol We're the principal agents of
death.
All this reads like the list of dead
and wounded after a great battle. The
most appalling feature of it is hat of
the great number of victims of lOckjaW,
80 per cent. were doomed from the
moment the Symptoms of the disease
first appeared. In spite of the use of
the tetanus antitoXin, physicians have

The paper quoted remarks that the
only way to stop this slaughter is to
remove toy pistols INK blank cartridges
from the Fourth of July programme.
1t learns that there are only four man.
ufacturers of blank cartridges in this
country and one in Canada 1t urges
that the manufacture and importation
of these death-dealing contrivances be
forbidden by law, and if this is impos-
sible, that state legislatures prohibit
their sale within state boundaries.
But, these legal remedies failing,
much can be done in the way of popu-
lar and professional education. Law
or no law, parents a prevent their
children from risking their lives, and if
state legislatures cannot or will not act,
city INC can and Should.-Cleve-

TO BLACK NEGRO'S SHOES.
Darkies in New York Trying to
Force Whites to do That.

Negroes of Scottsville raised 500 at
a celebration a few days ago toward
enabling George w. Burks, the negro
porter, to fight his case against Paul
Bosso, the Italian bootblack. This &C
ton has just been placed upon the
court of appeals calendar. 1t is to de-
eide whether a negro can compel a
white man to Perform any kind of SER
vice for him, and its outcome Will be
important and far reaching.
BassO, the bootblack, has a large
stand in the Powers block. His story
is that some time before the beginning
of Burks' action negroes were accus-
toned to wait about his stand until a
white woman took one OF the chairs.
Then n of the negroes Would take a
chair beside her. This went on, the
bootblack receiving many complaints
from the women, until he saw his bust
ness dropping off. Then he refused to
shine the shoes OF negroes any longer.
and BurkS, after being refused, sued
him.
BOsso say he has no personal grudge
against Burks or the colored people:
in fact, he has Shined BurkS' shoes, but
1t has come to a pass when he has to
decide definitely whether he will serve
whites or blacks, and he made up his
mind to refuse to shine the shoes of
any more colOred men.
The appellate division was divided
upon the case, three of the justices vot-
ing in favor of the negro and two in
the bootblack's favor. The appeal
shows that counsel for the bootblack
made this offer on the trial for the ac-
ton:
defendants counsel offered to show
that prior to the refusal of Mr.. Bosso
certain colored men hung around the
corridor of the building in which Mr..
Bosso had his place Of business and
waited the opportunity until a white
lady got upon the stand, and then got
up and sat beside her. and by reason
Of that fact many ladies left the stand
and refused to patronize the stand
less colored men were denied the priv
ilege of being served thre."
This was OBJECTED to by the negro's
attorney, and the evidence to that eff
feet was not Observation-Disclosures, N

THE ORIGIN OF COFFEE.
A Dervfsh Uses of the
Plant and Berry Centuries Ago.

AS to the history OF coffee, the legend
runs that it was first found growing
wild in Arabia. Hadji Omar, a dervish
discovered it In 1885, GIG years ago. He
was dying of hunger in the wilderness,
when, finding some small, round ber-
rfes, he tried to eat them, but they were
bitter. He tried roasting them, and
these he finally stepped In some water
held in the hollow of his hand, and
found the decoction as refreshing as if
he had partaken of solid food. He MUIR
ried back to Mocha, and, inviting the
wise men to partake in his discovery,
they were SO we'll pleased with it hat
they made him a saint
The story is told that coffee was in
troduced into the West Indies in 1923
by Chirac, a French physician, who
gave a Norman gentleman by the name
of De ClieuX, a captain Of infantry, on
his way to Martinique, a single plant.
The sea voyage was a stormy one, the
vessel was driven out Of her course and
drinking water was so scarce that it
was distributed in rations. De Clieux.
with an affection for his coffee plant,
divided his portion of water with it
and succeeded In bringing it to Mar
Unique, although weak, not in a hope
less condition. There he planted it in
his garden, protected II with a fence
Of thOrns and W atchad it daily until
the end of the year, when he gathered
two pounds Of coffee, which he dis
tributed among the inhabitants of the
island to be planted by them. From
Martinique coffee trees were sent in
turn to Santo Domingo, Guadalupe
and other neighboring Stands.
The coffee tree is an evergreen shrub,
growing in its natural state to a height
! Of fourteen to eighteen inche 1t is
usually kept trimmed, however, for
convenience in picking the berries,
which grow along the branches close to
the leaves and resemble in shape and
color ordinary cherries. The tree cam
not be grown above the frost line,
neither can it be successfully grown in
the tropics. The most successful eli
mate for production is that found at
an altitude. Of about 1000 feet Any
thing much above this is in danger Of
frost, which is fatal to the tree, and
when coffee is grown much below this
it requires artifcial<shade, which ma
terially increases the cost of production
and does not produce as marketable
berries. 1t is owing to this particular
requirement that coffee has never been
successfully produced in the United
States.-Sucoess.

Weak
Hearts

Are due to indigestion. N~inety-nine Of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges-
ton. II is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails Of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in the course Of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

trouble and was in a bad state as ! had heart trouble

Against Immigration.

Various editors, and possibly others, are
seeing spooks in the great influx OF immi'
grants 10 this country. Nearly million
came In last year, and now great fear has
been expressed that they will be of damage
to this country.
Until 1t can be shown that the class of i'm
migrants who are coming here today are In
ferior, or worse, than the ancestors Of those
who are now 80 alarmed, this newspaper shall
be glad to welcome immigrants TO our shores.
The sons and grandsons Of immigrants 10
this country In former years are today prov.
ing the worthiness of their ancestors, and we
presume that the sons Of the immigrants OF
today will prove in after years that they are
good and useful Americans.
Any effort to make poverty and lack Of
education crime on the part OF immigrants
should not prevail. Because Of lack OF op-
portunity and because OF ambition to be
somebody, these oppressed immigrants are
seeking our shores, where the fight for the
good things of life Is not as uneven as in
their own country. With our free schools
and with the opportunity TO work, these i'm
migrants are valuable acquisition.
1t seems to rs rather out Of place to hear a
grandson OF an immigrant inveighing against
the immigrants Of today. The probability is.
that the immigrants OF today are from as
good class OF people as we're those from
whom sprang the critics Of the immigrants
OF today.
