A NEW DANGER.

new menace to human life Is devel- oping in Massachusetts, and. strange to say. it Is the gentler sex that is causing the trouble. Not that it Is strange or unusual for pretty women to cause trou- bic among men. They have been at It about as long as history tells of them. We suspect that if there had been two Adams and but one Eve there would have been hot times in Eden even be- fore the old serpent got in his work. From Potiphar's wife to this good day they cause trouble among men. They can't help it, though.
 But to get back to the starting point. this new menace appears as the trolley girl" a new one to most people but the indications are that she is getting to be n serious problem among our Yankee brethren. She gets on the trolley-car, as near the front as possible makes goo goo eyes at the motorman, enters into conversation with him, distracts his att tention, and the first thing he knows there is a collision or some other acci- dent Who is to blame? The motorman is human and can't help being attracted by a pretty girl And the girl is human and can't help her firtatiousness. and there you are. The problem is a serious one, for to keep some girls from flirting is as difficult as it would be to try to keep some men from enjoying the game. The only remedy we see it to insist that all motormen shall be old. ugly and mar ried.

PHILIPPINES CENSUS.
One Million of the Inhabitants of the
 Islands Uncivilized.

Special to mes-Democrat.
 Washington.-Henry Gannett, the geo. grapher of the United States census. and Victor H. Olmstead, who went to the Philippines several months ago to assist Gen. J. P. Sanger in taking a census of the archipelago, returned here to-day The returns of the Philippines census will be worked up here as soon as the data reaches Washington. General SarS'- CT will make his headquarters here also and give his time to working out the va rious features of the census.
 MT. Gannett says that the population of the whole archipelago will approxi- mate about 5000 GOO. The civilized people will number 100000, and the wild tribes, who were counted imperfectly, are esti- mated to number 100000 souls. So far as counted the latter aggregated 65O.0OO
 Cebu province has a larger population than any other division of the Philip pines. the estimate being about 650,0OO. Iloilo comes second, with about 100000
 General Sanger is on the transport Sher- man, and 1t is not known when he will arrive in this country. All the census re- turns are also on the Sherman. The cen- sus office will compile the reports with the reports with the assistance of Gen eral Sanger; MT. Gannett and MT. Olm- stead. No totals have been obtained on manufacturing and agricultural statistics. and it will probably require a year to compile these.
 The wild tribes are chiefly in the Is lands of Mindanae and Luzon, and conse- quently the returns from these islands are indefinite and based chiefly on esti- mates. Enumerators were employed there, but found it impossible in many cases to get an actual count.
 This is the census required in the Cooper law. which would give the is lands representative home pule.

The Fifteenth Amendment.
Rirmingham News.

Birmingham News.
 Senator Carmack's announced intention of proposing for the consideration of Congress the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States has mot been received with any loud acclaim in the South. While the Fifteenth Amendment Is now univer- sally recognized asfa blunder, it is not for the South to correct it. The the pro- posed repeal to emanate from a Southern or even Democratic source is to stir up d feeling which had better be permitted to Slumber.
 Congressman John Sharpe Williams, who will probably tbe the Democratic leader in the next National House of Representatives, is quoted as endorsing the proposition of MT Carmack and eX- pressing the belief that the proposed re- peal would be an issue in the next cam paign. Mir Williams, If correctly quoted, shows a misapprehension of Northern sentiment.
 The thinkers of the North know that the Fifteenth Amendment was q blunder but the people of the North would not tolerate its repeal. If the Democratic party should raise the issue 1t would not carry d State north of the Ohio RiN CT. In the opinion of The News, it is the part of wisdom to let the Fifteenth Amendment alone until there is a We'll defined sentiment and d tangible move ment in the North for the repeal,

WE MUST CARE FOR OUR OWN.

WE MUST CARE FOR OUR OWN.
 There must be an awakening in this community to the needs of helpless hu- manity.
 The news columns of The Advertiser this morning tell a terrible story of hu- man suffering. of human privation. A little boy has died under the shadow of our remarkable progress and prosperity for the want of food! And yet more har- rowing; the President of the Organized Charities says that this is the fourth person who has died in Montgomery within three weeks because of a lack of the ordinary necessities of life.
 No sermon is necessary. The facts are sufficient to scourge our people to a re- alization of their duty. We must care for the distressed among us and we must do it in an organized methodical man. ner We have an excellent organization but it cannot work without funds. Ii has not been properly supported Its President says so.
 Let us rally to his support. Let us take care of our own before seeking other fields of charitable endeavor.

LEARNING TO WHITE.

It is consoling, to learn that one promi- nent college Professor, and that Yale Col lege, has taken a decided position against the old and absurd idea that all school children must be taught to write in a certain way, hold the pen at a certain angle, sit in a certain position, and all form their letters after a certain pre- scribed and unvarying form. He reasons that hardly any two children are pre- oisely alike, mentally or physically. What would be an easy and natural position for one would be unnatural and painful for another and to force all to follow an exact method would be absurd.
 The Professor Is right, as all observant persons must have noticed. The truth is that educators are getting away from many of the iron-clad requirements of former days. While we do not agree with some features of our modern edu- cational system We do agree with any movement looking towards more rational methods of teaching. The main object to be gained in teaching penmanship is that the pupil should learn to write easily and iegibly. If one can do this by holding
 pen at different angle from that as- sumed by others. let 1t be so. If one can write with less exertion and more Ia
 cility by giving the letters little diher- ent slant from that used by another. let it follow that form It would be just as reasonable to try to force all children to speak in exactly the same tone as to try to force them to assume the same position, hold their pens at the same an-
 gle and give their letters. the same form The mythical Procrustus had bed on which all prisoners had to be laid. If one was too short he was stretched, and if one was too long he was cut off, Each
 had to be exactly the length of the bed. Tn some respects we have Procrustean l ssytem of education and each child must
 be stretched or Topped to certain length. It is irrational, obstructive and often cruel. The Yale Professor is on the right ! line and his reasonings should be needed.

THE PANAMA CANAL.
It Appears to Be in Hopeless Condi-
 ticn-Time Expires Tonight.

Washington Special.
 Hope of an agreement with Colombia with respect to a canal Is absolutely abandoned by officers of the State De- partment The time for an exchange of ratification expires at midnight Septem- Der D.
 There is plenty of time for ratification if the Colombian Congress had any de- sire to carry out the solemn promises of Senos Claderon and Concha the Minis ters with whom the officers of the State Department negotiated the agreement which the Colombian Senate unanimously rejected on August D.
 But that body has no such desire.
 For two or three weeks after August 5 there was a strong inclination to believe the rejection was merely parliamentary move, the effect of which would later be neutraliZed. But for the last three weeks Minister Beaupre has been sending advices each sufficient in itself to bowl over the optimistic.
 The next move in the matter has not been fully decided upon. It is most prob- ably that stinging representations vii be made to Colombia about her failure to observe faith They will be so caustic that Colombia may think it desirable for Minister Beaupre to depart. Officers of the State Department are cautious in their utterances upon any phase of the subject It is such a critical state that kind words may be the best course. Pres- ident Roosevelt is exceedingly anxious to have the canal begun in his adminis- tration and unlike him as it Is. he may preserve an appearance of cordiality he does not feel.
 There is no doubt that the United States will give all the encouragement any man or party proposing the secession of Pan anna may desire or expect. Panama, with the assistance of the United States. could maintain an independence she would de- clare, as the first step in the process of secession.
 The President is still his own interpret CT of the "reasonable time" within which he may negotiate treaty.
 The Nicaraguanites, on the assembling of Congress in November. will doubtless try to force the Presidents hand, a move which is likely to give rise to sharp controversy at the opening of the ses- sion

FOR CONSURPT

Tuberculosis, or consumption, is due to invasion by the lung-eating parasite first discovered by Prof. Koch of Berlin in 1882 and scientifically known as the coma bacillus. Strictly and plainly speaking the disease is a literal eating up of the solids. and literal drinking up of the moistures. and a literal vampire drainaga of the precious animal vitalities of the entire lobes of the lungs until they fall to pieces in the final process of decom- position. After consumption has once set in. and during the progress and unfolding of the disease examination of the lunG substance under the strongest microscopes shows that the long succession of symp- toms, from the slight approximation Of white, frothy matter and the mild first warning signs, to the hurried pulse and increasing fever and cancellation, the growing violence of the paroXysms of coughing, the deepening pains in the chest, the hot palms. the hectic flush. the swollen feet and ankles. the sunken and enfeebled body. the ghastly hollow eyes and the profuse diarrhoea of the last stages of suffering-that all. are but the successive manifestations of poisoning piIlaging, infaming and consuming by sWarms of lung microbes.

NEW BACON CIPHER.
St. Louis Doctor Claims to Have
 Solved Shakespeare Riddle.


 Dr. w. Hutson Ford of St. Louis, a well-known scholar and scientific inves- tigator claims to have discovered new cipher in the writings of William Shaks- pears which proves that Francis Bacon was in reality the author of the Shaks- peare plays. says The New York World. Dr. Ford has worked out and will pub fish large number of anagrams from the text of the Shakespeare plays and from the prefactory odes by Ben Johnson and others In the 1893 folio edition, which, he declares, are the cipher writings of Bacon. In them Is reiterated Bacons claim to the authorship. They also contain his urgent appeal to the deciphers to work out all the cipher and let the world know the truth.
 The cipher writing discovered by pr. Ford has nothing to do with the ciphers which have engaged the attention of Ig- the Bacon theory.
 According to his discoveries, made after translators of the anagrams in the Shaks- peare plays not only prove that Bacon was their author, but that he claimed to be the son of Queen Elizabeth and the rightful heir to the throne. They reveal, says Dr. Ford, many extraordinary per- sonal and State secrets. But perhaps the most remarkable of all Is the investiga- tors reading of the inscription on the tomb of Shakespeare. which, he says. coupled with the cipher writings in the text of the plays. shows that Bacon. with the assistance of Ben Johnson, exhumed the body of Shakespeare and cast 1t into the river Thames, depositing in it's place a small casket containing the key to the cipher and some of Bacon's (Shakspeare's s latest and best writing in the original manuscript, together with other indisput- able proof of the authorship of the great plays. This proof in this casket, Dr. Ford is certain, will be found when the grave is opened Dr. Fords translation of the inscription follows:
 'U aske, goode friend. for the dead sot. I tel. Fr. Bacon dugg; he rose. See, Sir! Haste! Move the stones Syphers and best Ms rest beneath them. Bacon Blest U."
