A Kind Enfher.

A young man in his shirt sleeves and
a straw hat was observed. one of the
hottest afternoons this week, wheeling
a baby carriage backward and forward
in front of one of the small houses in
the vicinity of Fairmont Park. He APP
peared hot, but happy, says the Phil
aCesl ia Ledger.

She was fat and about forty, wore a
silk dress which she did not care to
spoil, and had no umbrella, says the
New York Post. Consequently, when
it began to rain outside, she looked
around the department store for the
best place to spend the time until it
should clear again. A particularly
inoffensive looking young man presid-
ed over the blanket counter, and she
seated herself on "a stool in front of
him, and asked to be shown blankets
The young man pulled down rolls of
coverings red and yellow, fine and
coarse, smooth and fuzzy. Finally,
when the sun came out again he
had shown her every piece of blanket
ing in the store with the exception of
one roll.
Il didn't want to buy any," she ex-
planned. Il thank you for showing
them to me- l was simply looking for
a friend"
The young man cast off his exterior
of humility and said with some energy,
but great deal of politeneSs:
well, if you think your friend is in
that other roll, I'll be glad to take it
down for you.'

CARMACK SHOULD POINT THE
WAY,


In a Memphis special dispatch to the
! Chicago Tribune Senator Carmack Of
Tennessee, who proposes to introduce
into Congress a bill a repeal the Fiji
| teenth Amendment is reported as ex-
pressing himself in favor of a separa-
ton of the races. 1t is worthy of no
tice, however, that he doesn't point out
how separation is to be effected.
1t is easy enough to say that this
or that thing ought to be done. but if
the way to do it isn't apparent it is
hardly evident of foresightedness or
wisdom to say it ought to be done. I'm
til Senator Carmack and those who are
talking about the separation of the
races can point how separation can be
brought about they will not make much
of an impression upon the public.
In the states which formed the Con-
federacy there were at the last census
more than 1000 900 negroes. When
Senator Carmack talks about the sep
aration of the races does he mean that
these 100000 negroes shall be sent to
Africa or the Philippines or colonizad
in some other part of the world? The
simple statement that the races ought
to be separated means practically moth
ing unless the way that separation can
be accomplished is pointed out.
In calling attention to this matter a
few days ago We made the statement
that negroes couldn't be induced to
leave the South and that the white
people wouldn't consent to have them
deported. If that statement is correct
it seems to us that it practically puts
an end to any further talk about sep
arating the races. There isn't any use
in wasting time in talking about things
that cannot be done.
And it is doubtful if anything win be
accomplished in the direction of set
Ting the race problem by the introduce
ton into Congress of a bill to repeal
the Fifteenth Amendment. Such a bill
will provoke a great deal of talk Of a
kind that will tend to keep away from
the South the home-seekers and inves-
tors which every Southern state has
been inviting for years, but it will not
get far enough to contribute to the set
Element of the race problem. The Re-
publicans are not yet ready to admit
that they made a mistake when that
amendment was made a part of the
constitution.

Stephen Playsted of New York. the
mechanic who thought eating was a
useless habit, and who started in to
demonstrate that he could live and work
on three Dints of water a day only
without losing strength, has given up
the task. He went to his barber for a

coming soft and fiabby and the mus
cles OF his face and neck We're losing
their elasticity. Playsted looked in the

The trouble at Cripple Creek, Col,
is a struggle between organized labor
on one side and employers on the 9TH
er, over the questions of wages and
the right of non-union men to work
in the mines. The union men have
instituted a strike and boycott, and
are doing what they can to prevent
non-union workers from taking their
places. The Governor of Colorado has
taken a firm stand, declaring that he
will protect non-union men in their
right to work. even if he has to use
the militia to enforce obedience to the
law. As our dispatches show, the
militia has been ordered to Cripple
Creek and provided with arms and
ammunition. On both sides it has
been declared that the fight will be
ito a finish," and the prospects are
good for IA ng-drawn-out and costly
struggle.

ago printed a big weather map of the
United States showing that on the day
previous there prevailed in the cOun-
try about all varieties of weather,
from torrid summer to frost and snow,
with Il hurricane, several rain storms
and one or more dust storms scatter
ed about. There was a difference of so
degrees in the temperature at New
Orleans and at Yankton, and of 80
degrees between Philadelphia and Min
neapolis. A notable popularity of the
situation was that Chicago was in
the midst of a hot wave, while Mil
waukee, only a few miles away, was
shivering in the cold. These weather
maps sometimes impress upon us the
fact that we are living in a large and
versatile country.
