ssSocIALIsM" was the subject OF
lecture by ]. II. Hollander at Hazazer
Hall Baltimore, yesterday afternoon
Among other things DIR. Hollander SAID
Education is the conspicuous need oil
trade unionists. BY this | mean not so
much the education of trade unionists as
the education of the public regarding
trade union. Such education can only
come from a grave, dispassionate discus
sion of economic questions. Socialists
maintain that socialism is the exclusive
economic system that will bring about a
betterment of social conditions. 1t IS
not enough, however, for socialist argu-
ment to point out that there are certain
glaring defects in the existing system.
What assurance have we that socialism
is the panacea for the existing evils ?
We have every reason for retaining the
present industrial system. We have no
reason to adopt the socialist system. The
risk of exchange is too great. Socialism
means life of sufficient food and cloth
ing but it means a life devoid OF ambi-
ton or higher attainments. 1t offers
rs so much and no more. 1t gives US
an assurance of lack of absolute want,
but it offers insurmountable barriers To
advancement and betterment."
Men have been dissatisfied with gov
ernments even since the race appeared
upon earth, and in every country indi-
viduals have appeared with what they
supposed we're panaceas for all our DIS
comftures. Socialism, under different
forms has been exploited throughout
the ages and exposed and shown to be
the fimsiest of all dreams. The Deity
formed a theocracy many years ago
People, however, soon grew tired o
such government and clamored Tor I

REV. DIR. CHARLES III. PARKHURsT,
of New York, yesterday delivered the
annual convention sermon before the
National Conference of Charities and
Correction, in Atlanta, Ga. Among
other things the doctor compared
the case of the convict to the eman-
cipated negro. "There wa" he
said. mot much craftsmanship in the
construction of peace after the civil war,
and one of the radical mistakes made
was in supposing that altering the
colored mans condition altered the
colored man; that letting wolf out OF
cage domesticates the wolf; that sub
shutting coat and trousers for swaddhng
clothes makes of an infant a man, and
that emancipation not only relieved the
slave of his letters, but qualified him to
be a citizen" DR.. Parkhurst may

caused many to question his wisdom bu'

of the impractical acts of the republican

prenarino for the Trial Races.

Bristol, r. l., May 1.-THE remark
able showing of Sir Thomas Lipton's
cup challenger Shamrock III is causing
uneasiness among the owners of Re-
lance and orders have been given to ex-
pedite the work of reftting the defender
in order that she may be tried out and
put into racing shape as soon as possible.
The feeling of rivalry between the own
ers of Reliance and Constitution Is on
the increase and there will be many a
bitter fight between the boats before the
preparatory races are over. The renting
of Constitution here last week has made
her another boat and both she and Re
lance will have to allow Columbia a
liberal time allowance. August Bel
mont has virtually given up his business
for a time in order to see that everything
is done to put Constitution in racing
trim. He has engaged Captain Terry,
one of the smartest racing shippers, to
assist Captain Rhodes, and Captain Barr
of Reliance will have his hands full when
he meets them in a race. The work
here ON Reliance will greatly change her
sail plan and when she is ready for her
races with Columbia and Constitution
her appearance will cause surprise.

A STORY OF PATTI.

"Adeline Patti said an aged Phila-
delphian, "came to this city when she
was eight years old. She was born
in Spain-in Madrid-and her public
career began at the age of seven. 1t
began, I understand, in Philadelphia,
and it was in Philadelphia that she
made Eer first appearance before royal
ty, singing in Martha at the Academy
Of Music during the soiourn here of
the Prince of Wales. The programs
on that occasion were elaborate
enough. They were OF satin, with
fringe Of gold lace.
"Patti was great business woman.
She made sums of money that have
not been equaled since by any singer.
I'll tell you a story indicative Of her
ability as a financier. She was being
managed by Colonel Mapleson, and
her contract was for $4,000 a night.
Everything went well, but on GER
tain day in Boston Mapleson was
short of cash. 1t was PATHS dictum
that she must set her salary $4,000 on
the afternoon. when the manager could

and appear when the extra $1,000 was
Forthcoming.
"She did this At T.3o O'Clock she
sat in her dressing room in her stock
ing feet all prepared otherwise to go
on. Mapleson by this time had taken
in 5000 and he sent it back to her.
She returned him word that she would
now put on one shoe.
"At s o'clock another $400 lot Of
tickets had been sold. The money

which seem so ridiculously small and
yet are so pregnant of evil results, the
consideration of those things which
are impossible to understand" and
yet are so vital to the mind that holds
them firmly imbedded in its theory Of
life-these are difficult lessons which
have been abandoned by so many a
broken spirited man and woman, and
left them standing upon a field of bit
ter defeat.
If we could only grasp the thought
as the absolute necessity Of perfect
married unity and partnership that
the very "love" on which most of us
depend rs our sole capital in this mo-
mentous partnership, may, by ignor-
ance and persistence, be made source
of disaster, We would eagerly turn to
the study of how to use and apply its
noble power to the requirement of the
art of living joyfully in our own
homes.
Married happiness is of n truth
Gods blessing but in this, as in al
things, He demands our cooperation
and the peace and JOY and satisfaction
of two hearts so bound together does
not descend from the clouds and light
upon US. When we give all, it does not
mean the crude commodities of our
mental and bodily endowments, but
the use they are meant to employ, and
the best results we can set from them.

RIBBON EMBROIDERED CASE.

A new departure in ribbon work Is
the crinbled ribbon which can be had
in several shades of various colors.
This ribbon is about the width OF that
used for ordinary ribbon work, but
somewhat softer and closely crinkied.
This embroidery is suited only to
dainty articles which will not have
rough usage, table centres, sachets,
book covers. etc, being suitable artl-
cles for decorating with it.
On handkerchief case the punches
of flowers are all worked in the ribbon,
with the exception of the stems and
centres The foundation is heliotrope
bengaline silk, and a thin lining Of
cotton is placed under it to give greater
support to the embroidery.
The colors of the ribbons are two
shades OF orange, one of blue, two
of pink and two of green.
The centre bunch is entirely worked
in greens for leaves, stems and centres,
the flowers being all OF one shade Of
orange or else with alternating petals
of the two shades.
The corner punches have flowers in
4. one shade only, pink, yellow, blue and
HQrange being used according to taste.
The tiny flowers between the punches
are alternately dark and light orange.
The needles used are what are
termed Chenille needless" which have
large oval eyes and sharp points,

CHARACTERISTIC OF WORTH.

The woman who carries herself well
is more apt to command respect than
the woman who trudges along with her
head inclined forward and her shoul-
ders in a STOPPING position. The pos
SCISSOR of a graceful, erect carriage un-
consciously impresses us as having
characteristic worth, says the Pitts
burg Observer. There are many noble
hearted women who really do them
selves injustice by the awkward way
they carry themselves. 1t is very hard
for others to see beauty and grace of
heart in an unloyely outward appear
ance. 1t is the exterior charm of the
2 rose that giYss fitting expression to its
hidden sweetness.
Although there are many beautiful
women with worthless hearts, still that
fact does not weaken the other fact
that spiritual nobleness and Il fair body
are consistent, harmonious associa-
ton. Everything that appertains to
the elevation of the soul affects for the
better the aspect of the body, beautify-
ing and refining it. Just rs rare jewels
need fitting caskets to rest in, so it is
only meet that lovely souls should be
enclosed in bodies that are beautiful
and fair.

A BRASS TINIsH.

For some time silver and brass

all the thousand and one trifles be-
longing to the table, desk and dressing
room have been Of the highest lustre
and polish. This promises TO be super
seeded by dull finish. which 7ill be
appreciated as a change il for no
other reason. Old brass and copper
must be polished, if its character is to
be preserved, but modern bric-a-brac
too brilliantly finished gives an i'm
preston of "brand newness" which
makes other things around 1t look
rather shabby.

BANANAS AS FOOD.

Opinions often differ rs to the diges-
tive qualities of bananas, especially for
children. The banana is highly nu-
trltious, and satisfies the craving for
starchy food which most children feel.
The trouble is that the fruit is usually
eaten without being chewed, and the
stomach has hard work to digest the
solid Jumps. A good way to serve
bananas at the nursery table is to cut
them in small cubes, thereby preserv-
ing the taste, which seems to be lost
when they are sliced thinly. Break
up fresh lady fingers with them and
serve with plenty Of sweet cream.

becomes important to others. since to
meet the requirements OF the well in

manufacture must be OF the most per-
feet order and the combination the most
excellent of its kind. The above is true
not of food products only, but is espe-
cial1y applicable to medicinal agents and
after nearly q quarter of century of
growth and general use the excellent
remedy. Syrup of Figs, is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family laxatives. Its quality is
due not only to the excellence of the
combination of the laxative and carmin-

sweetens the system effectually, when
a laxative is needed, without any un-
pleasant after-effccts. Every well-in-
formed druggist of reputable standing
knows that Syrup of Figs is an excel
lent laxative and is glad to sell it, at
the regular price of fifty cents per bot
