Original "Uncle Tom Dies at
the Age OF Ill.

Lancaster, KY, March 8.-Nor.
mau Argo, born a slave, died to.
day at Pains Lick at the reputed
age of Ill years, the authenticity
of which is fairly well established
by the family in whose service he
spent the greater years of his life.
Argo belonged to Gen. Samuel
Kennedy, one of the wealthiest
planters in Garrard county and the
first representative of the county
in the Kentucky Legislature. He
was only 3 feet, 4 inches tall, and
for that reason was known as
"Little Norman" He was en-
ployed as a house servant and was
a great favorite with the children.
Mrs. Stowe got most of the
material for "Uncle Toms Cabin"
from the Kennedy place. Argo is
said to have been the original
Uncle Tom, as many of his traits
which made him respected by his
owner are found in Uncle Tom.
Argo was proud of this distinction.
He has been repeatedly written up.
Fifty years and more ago he was a
wonder as a jockey, and by his
skilful riding won thousands of
dollars for his owner.

Jim Grow Bill Defeated.

Jefferson City, Mo-, March IL
The House had some fun with the
Jim Crow Bill this morning when
it adopted a resolution, declaring
that as ga doubt exists as to the
parentage of one Jim Crow, be it
resolved that it is the sense of this
House that Alonzo B. Williams of
Holt county is the father of said
Jim Grow and that Col. John II.
Crisp is his stepfather, and that
Jim is the joint heir of both" Both
Williams and Col. Crisp introduc.
ed jim Grow bills and each accuses
the other Of stealing his thunder.
When the House took up the
Jim Grow bill, Williams made an
appeal for its passage. Murphy
of st. Louis asked Williams if he
thought the negro had a soul.
"We're not trying to regulate
his SOUL" said Williams, eve
want to keep his body out of white
mems coaches"
"I'll tell you," said Reinmiller,
a niger is only an Irishman turn
ed inside out" The House roared
and petitions against the measure
began to pour in.
Crisp got the floor and attacked
the people who opposed a separa-
ton Of the races. ~ admire Pres.
ident Roosevelt" he said, in a
burst of rhetoric. eyes, l love
him but he's a freak, a strange
freak, like | am. His peculiar
actions with regard to the negro
will cause his overwhelming defeat
if the Democrats nominate a man
who has sense enough to keep his
mouth shut"
The bill was lost by IL vote of 50
for it and II against it.
The professional world. (Columbia, Mo.) 1901-192?, 1903-03-13

AS was predicted by the Profess
sional World, the separate coach
bill, or, better known as the "Jim
Grow BILL" was killed in the house
of representatives last Wednesday
morning. While Missouri has
been classed with the southern
states and it is we'll known that
considerable race prejudice exists
here, we have never believed that
those who are selected TO enact
laws for the state are so narrow
minded and biased as to allow
themselves to go on record as vot-
ing for the enactment of such a
law. During the entire consider
alton of the bill not a single plaus-
ible reason was given for the en-
actment of such a law, not ever by
the two braying asses who intro
duced the two bills, namely: John
Z. Crisp and Alonzo E. Williams,
who have done nothing in the
present Legislature except intro
duced the two "Jlm Crow bills" and
drawn their So per day and made
themselves laughing stocks for
the Legislature. But Crisp and
Williams are not the only preju.
diced people in Missouri as the
fact that the bill on its vote receiv-
ed ffty-fve votes revealed. An
other evidence of the i'll feeling
against the negro was shown in the
many petitions presented to the
Legislature asking for the passage
of the bill, four different counties
Boone county not excepted. 1t
is gratifying, however, to note
that this class of individuals have
by no mean a majority either in
the Legislature or in the state, but
that the better people think that
such a law would be a menace and
that it is entirely uncalled for.

THE ANTHRACITE ARBITRATION.
post Ditpatch.)

The findings of the Anthracite
Coal Strike Commission have not
been given out, but the published
forecast goes to show that the
miners have won a substantial vic
tory.
Wages will be advanced, opera
tors will be required to pay by
weight and adequate protection will
be afforded against arbitrary dock
ing. On the other hand, boycott
ting is condemned and the right of
a man to work whether he is a
member of the union or not is de-
clarcd.
Whether or not the union is to be
formally recognized is not known,
but the indirect recognition is
ample.
The great gain, however, does
not accrue to the operators or min
crs. The arbitration of this con
troycrsy is in the interest of public
order and benefit. The findings,
whatever they may be, will be ac-
ccpted and a precedent established
which cannot be ovcrthrown.
This is the benefit. A step in
progress has been recorded which
can never be retraced. In future
neither operator nor miner car
arrogantly refuse TO listen to reason.
The public right has been asserted
and made good. And it will no
again be questioned.

TELEPHONE ON THE FARM.

1t is difficult to realize the great
change which has taken place in
the west, particularly in the region
lying between the Missouri River
and the Rocky Mountains. Unless
one has lived through these changes
and witnessed them they are almost
beyond belief, says the New York
Sun.
The great change is we'll illus
tratcd in the experience of !. N.
Norton, a farmer who lives near
Moran, Allen county, Kan. Mr..
Norton settled there with his par
ents 81 years ago.
"At that time" he said, lone
could get on a horse and gallop for
miles in any direction and never see
a house or a man: now every spot
of land about here is occupied and
under fence.
Eight long-distance telephone
wires pass my house, and right by
my own desk is my own telephone.
When l have produce to sell l can
telephone to town and get the price
before | leave home,
"Once recently | decided / needed
a new suit of clothes to attend a
wedding the next day. l telephoned
into town at eight O'Clock in the
evening and the clothes were deliv-
cred at my door at nine o'clock the
next morning. When my wife
needs some groceries in a hurry
she can telephone to town at eight
o'clock in the morning and they
will be delivered to her an hour
latter"
A farmers wife made a note of
the advantages which were secured
by the farm telephone recently.
Here are some items:
Before breakfast the farmer dis
covered that some of his cattle had
broken out of pasture and were
missing. He began telephoning to
his ncighbors and within five min
utes had the strays located. With
out the telephone he would have put
in two hours looking for them.
A few minutes later a half bushel
of peaches which had blown from
the trees during the night were
brought in, and 1t was evident that
they must be pat up right away in
order to save them. The house
wife had not a sufficient supply of
sugar. 1t required only a minute
to telephone to town, five miles
away, and the rural delivery carrier
brought the sugar out two hours
later.
The farmer intended to cut hay,
but before doing so he telcphoned
to the post office, where the gov
eminent weather report was receiv-
ed daily by telegraph, and asked
what the weather indications were.
He was told that storms threatened.
AS a consequence, he did not cut
his hay and probably avoided a con-
siderable loss.
A bunch of cattle were driven
past the farm and we're noticed by
the farmer. Fifteen minutes later
Il telephone message announced that
some cattle had been stolen the
night before over in the next
county. The description tailed
with those the farmer had seen.
Within two hours the thieves had
been captured and the owner of the
cattle notified by telephone where
he could find them.

THAT CHAPTER.

A chapter on SCOTS Emul-
sion often holds a prominent
position in the histories of
weak children.
The gist of that chapter
usually reads like this" child
weak, pale, thin, no appetite,
fretful, weakness left over from
grippe or other disease. Be-
gan small doses SCOTS Emul-
sion three times a day after
meals. No apparent change
first week. Then appetite
improved, then strength in
creased, then child more lively,
slept better, a decided gain in
weight, better color in the face. !"
And SO it goes till the child
is reported well and strong.
Sounds simple enough and
it is simple-Scott's Emulsion
is just what the weak child
needs.

the annexation of Candee's Grove and
other sections to the city, it was de-

Quite a strong opposition developed
among some of the large holders of
land who objected to coming into the

raised to fight the movement. Resi-

be talking of carrying the opposi-

even farther than at present, since
the council has decided TO keep the
field as outlined. 1t is even asserted
that the matter may be brought into
