The Mulatto Question.

Alfred H. Stone in May Atlantic.
 Probably nothing mas contributed more toward the persistence of our effort at creating an artificial being from the me- gro than the absolute elimination of the mulatto equation from all our considera- tons from the subject. We re- cognize the very simple and very patent fact that the intermixture of white and black races has given us a hybrid that Is neither the one nor the other; when we get far enough along to separate this type from the negro masses, in our ef- forts at determining what may be best for the latter; when the South is willing to lay at the white mans door many of the failings of this mulatto type, and much of the meanness which he too fre- quently exhibits-and Northern opinion is sufficiently candid and honest to no lon ger persist in ascribing all his virtues and accomplishments to the negro, l think we shall have made a distinct gain in race problem discussion.

PEACE AND WAR.
A Relationship That Has Grown Ur
 With Modern Commerce.

With Modern Commerce.
 Boston Globe lDem)
 Last week there were launched two big ships. The one was the great mer- chant carrier Minnesota. typical of peace. and the other the great armored cruiser West Viginia.
 Here we have peace and war, many will say. The one ship will spread the white wings of peace and carry our civ illization to the ends of the earth, while the other will serve as the armed guard ian of the peace ship on her errands of sociability and trade.
 Yet 1t is not quite easy to see why this relationship between peace and war should have grown up with modern com merce. Piracy has been largely swept from the seas. Our ships did not formerly need the protection of the armored crui- sers. They carried one or two guns to guard them against sea robbers andsava natives on shore, and for the rest they depended solely on the softening and civ ilizing influence of friendly trade.
 The West Virginia is one of i've other powerful ships of war that are to fol- low, having l4,00O tons displacement and carrying four eight-inch guns, fourteen six-inch eighteen three-inch, tweleve three-pounders, eight one-pounders, and the usual assorment of field guns. ma chinery, guns, automatic guns, and tor pedo tubes constitute her battery. Her purpose is to protect our commerce, and the number of similar ships are to be in- creased as the big merchant ships such as were launched last week in Groton
 Is 1t not our protective tariffs that have

MISS. GRIFFIN HoNoRED.

Miss Frances Griffin has been appointed Deputy Supreme Commander of the La dies of the Maccabees for the State of Alabama. The society is secret insu- rance order for women.
 The appointment of Miss Grimm is a compliment deserved. She has held many State positions. and is now the President of the Alabama Woman's Suffrage Asso- citation.
 No one enjoys a joke better than does Miss Griffin. even though 1t is on her self. In connection with her work for the suffrage cause she tells the following story at her expense.
 An old negro woman who Is very fond of Miss Fanny" was having heart to heart talk with her recently on the sub ject of the degeneracy of the world. She had seen "better days when she had been fed and clot.- in luxurious suffi- ciency by the white folks" In the course of the conversation the old darkey said:
 Well, Miss Fanny. the white man is downed de nigger man; but he's lef' you an me whar we wus befo'. Neither of us kin vote."
 Miss Grifin. in relating the story says: Now, I ask you. is not that negro equal ity?"

New York News.
 1t is reported from London that Pres ident Markham, of the Royal Geographi- cal Society, says 1t has been proved couciusiveiy that there is a vast conti- nent in the antarctic circle. The British ship Discovery, Captain Scott, penetrated 100 miles further south than any previous expedition, and discovered an extensive and hitherto unknown mountainous re- zion, extending to 8 degrees 20 minutes. Captain Scott thinks this indicates that the land stretches to the pole in a series of very lofty mountains.

SPREAD OF NEW LANGUAGE.
Esperanto" Said to Be Capable Of
Univereal URe.

Universal Use.
According to reports from Europe
the spread OF Esperanto. the language
invented for universal use, has proved
Of value to Esperantists. At recent
gathering in London one Of the guests
brought with him French gentleman
and his wife and a. Czech from Bo-
hemia. None of the three could speak
a word Of English. but Esperanto was
found to be perfectly facile medium
for conversation. The Bohemian gen.
tleman had had various amusing ex-
periences while journeying through
Europe. He had taken one of the Es-
peranto journals, marked the names
Of the secretaries of the various
groups in the foreign towns through
which he had to pass and so. not
knowing anything OF the languages, he
had travelled through several conti-
mental countries, seeing all that was
to be seen with the help Of various
Esperanto friends and finally ar
rived in England. He knocked at
the door OF London Esperantist, who
came down to interview the stranger.
found that he needed home while In
London, but did not know where to
go. as NO one could understand him.
There was no difiiculty, as both could
communicate in Esperanto.
