FURNISHING IDEAS.

It may be said that there is almost
no end to color schemes and furnish
ing ideas for seaside and mountain
homes. Burlaps often replace paper
on the walls, or ordinary Chinese
sun screens are hung about to cover
bare boards or rough plaster. Again,
paint is used where rough board
shelves run around to hold old plates,
books-anything that needs a resting
place. Burlaps, with top and bottom
fringed and done in simple drawn
work, make effective draperies and
couch covers, and Indian grass cloth
is utilized for window shades. Old
lanterns with colored slides hung from
wooden or iron arms are frequently
pressed into service-but always there
should be a settle Of some kind Oh de-
scription-the bigger, broader, higher
backed and winged, the better. And
with the coming Of the severely plain,
almost crude, furniture now fashion,
able for summer homes, there is a re-
vival Of the old rag carpet fhe design
only in luxurious quality, and Of hair
cloth-haircloth in yellows, reds,
green's, but, with thankfulness be it
said, never a black. These gay hair
cloths and aristocratic rag carpets, to-
gether with real, old-fashioned calico,
are seen principally in connection with
mission furniture which can be substi-
tuted for the entrance hall of our pen
and ink house, keeping the color as it
is, and for the dining room.-Good

After all the blow and buster and
the killing of one of the posse of white
men who took upon themselves the
administration Of the law in Arkan'
sas and attempted to rescue an al
legged white girl who was "held a
prisoner by band of eight Negroes
on Bruce's Island" it turns out that
the girl is the daughter of Mrs. VIM.
Hicks, who, with her husband are
the alleged leaders of the ''band." All
of the :band'' has been captured and
are in Jail at FIT. Smith, Ark. The
newspapers had great ''scare heads
three columns wide telling the trump
ed up story and attempting to
increase the already alarming race
animosities. In fact the newspapers
have been the prime cause of the
sweep of anarchy, mob, murder arsl
barbarism, which has gone over the
country recently by the methods they
follow in making mountains out of
mole hills and mole hills, out of moth
ing but their diaboica1 prejudiced i'm:

We have read many good things

Il Sir:-For an indefinite period
American people have been so en-
crossed with the perplexing Negro
problem so much time has been
spent in trying to solve it, that the
fact that other races present as intri-
cate problems is just dawning on our
minds.
No Negro was ever an anarchist,
and very few have stopped to lynch
ing, two heinous but popular crimes
.of other races. It will be hard to
picture anything more repulsiYe than

even children, who have lost all self

raving like wild beasts for their prey,
after. killing their victim lin the most
horrible manner, taking fingers, toes
<and anything accessible for souvenirs
of their horrid work. Barbarians
could do no worse. To-day every
newspaper atounds in narratives of
the work of these law breakers. Is:
not this a problem to be solved ~
Every time a president tours the
country, some suspected villain is
caught and found guilty of meditating
murder of the chief magistrate, and
these culprits are persistent and bold
"a knotty problem to be sure! And
when we remember y that no crime
for which the Negro is so brutally
killed belongs wholly to that race
that the newspaper publishes similar
crimes in other races, then the lynch
ing problem becomes harder for So
luton.
Why should a man exult over the
color of his skin, unless that color be
certain index of exalted virtues? 1t
does not necessarily follow that his
character, which, after all, is the real
man, is white, simply because the
epidermis is white. A white man
filled with prejudice so deep seated
and black that will actuate him to
treat a fellow man more cruelty than
he would a dog, simply because his
outer covering is black, has a char
acter much darker than the Negroes
skim In 1853 the white man had only
to say to his brother in black: Il am
your SUPERIOR" and it was so, but TO-
day, in 1903, the Negro says: prove
| it by your superior qualities by your
| intrinsic WORTH =
Some one, in deriding the Negro
recently, foolishly said, "he could do
nothing but pattern after the white
man."
| Did any man or woman ever reach
any high degree of ehninence unless
he had some high ideal? What mat
| ter whether ideal be white or black
if it be worthy of emulation?
When Longfellow sang:
|, Lives Of great men all remind us
| We can make our lives sublime"
He meant that we should read these
lives and copy their excellencies
What difference does it make whether

or Booker Washington, as long as
both are worthy of imitation?
Since the Indian, the only true
| American does not claim America, she
is the real home of every race on the
globe, and the Negro is as truly an
American as the decendents of any
other nation. When the national
hymns "America" and columbia, the
Gem of the Ocean," are heard the
same patriotic chords that vibrate in
others breast, vibrate also in the
black mans breast. When the cry:
'"To arms! the foe! they come! they
| GOMEZ" is heard in the land, the Ne
gro is ready, yes, eager to shed his
! blood and die. He labors ardu0usly
to become credit to both country
| and Creator, and yet, when he Losses
self-control or when one depraved to
the type of a Knapp, decends to the
lowest crimes, he cannot, like Knapp,
have a trial and be deservedly exc
cuted by the law because his skin is
black. Criminals should be lawfully
dealt with according to their crimes
regardless of color.
