MANNERS AND THE WOMAN
Points Wherein Many of Our Modern Women Are Found
Sadly Lacking

p these days manners are not taught
girls as they were in former times,
which accounts for much of the outre
conduct Of the present day.
Many an attractive girl spoils herself
in company by certain mannerisms Of
behavior that are Objectionable. These
may not actually constitute breach of
etiquette in the broader. sense OF that
term. but they are sufficient 90 rob the
bearer of what charms she may pos
sess.
often a pretty girl loses considerable
OF her attraCtiveneSs by an indescrib-
able something that CRATES upon ones
nerves. In spite OF her good looks such
q girl fails TO take in social circles. She
may be jolly, she may be good company,
but she lacks the fine polish Of manners
that go to make the real woman. There
Is a happy medium between the girl
who Is hoydenish and the young woman
Of demure manners. and she exists in
that particular type of maiden who
knows TO what precise extent she may
go in her most exuberant moments
without OFFENDING the canOns OF good
breeding and who. with proper reserve,
is still no prude
Sitting Properly an Art.

the fact that in his native state, North
Carolina, there are 100 negro physicians,
four college presidents, five normal school
principals and 1000 teachers with not less
than 10000 pupils under their charge. He
argued that today the negro its, propor-
tionately, producing more OF the national
wealth than is any other class In this lcoun-
try. referring to the increase during the
mast forty-one years in the production of
cotton from 100000 to over 100000
bales which production, he said. Is prac-
tically the work Of the negro.
Mr. Dancy also delivered an address In

: dence on every hand that the popularity OF

TO SUCCEED HEARST
THAT TAMMANY WILL
SEND TowNE TO CONGRESS.
The Announcement Causes Consider
able Comment in Local Politi-
cal Circles.

The announcement which comes from
New York to the effect that Tammany has
decided to send Mr.. Charles A. Towns to
the House of Representatives as a successor
to William Randolph Hearst has created no
little interest and comment in local po-
litical circles. 1t is given out tina. MI
Hearst does not desire denomination, being
content with the one term he is now serving
in the lower branch of the national .ssis.
lature. ~
Tammany was very anxious during the
last session of Congress to send Mr.. Towne
to tie House. and there was considerable
talk of his selection to succeed Repre-
sentative Mcclellan when the latter re-
signed to become mayer>of the greater city.
But Bourke Cochran had to be provided
with a seat at that time. and it was decided
to withhold Mr.. ToWne until the Fifty
ninth Congress.
Mr.. Towne will be an aggressive worker
and an active and vigorous participant IN
party debates Mr.. Hearst, on the other
hand, was present at the last session of
Congress only at long intervals, and his
speech making efforts were confined to one
address before committee.
1t Is not known whether Mr. HearSts an
nounced intention not to stand for renomt-
nation for Congress means his retirement
from active politics or not.
His canvass for the democratic presi-
enlvening features of the ante-convention
campaigning.
The further statement comes from New
York that Tammany Leader Murphy Is
thinking of sending Harry Payne Whitney
to the polls as congressional candidate to
succeed Representative Francis Burton
Harrison, the democratic nominee for lieu
tenant governor of New York.
Mr.. HARRISON very Unexpectedly carried
the thirteenth district at the election two
years ago. It was thought the thirteenth
was surely republican. but Mr.. Harrison
made active campaign and won out
handsomely. Mr.. Whitney. it is under
stood. has not yet consented to make the
zee in this district but the Tammany
leaders hope to persuade him.
The Whitney name is one to conjure
with in New York. and it is believed the
young scion of the family would lead a
successful campaign. fr--
he Tammany slate is understood to in
clude for denomination the names of Rep
resentatives Timothy D. Sullivan. Henry
NJ. Goldfogle, William Sulzer, W. Bourke
Cochran. Jacob Rupert. jr., Francis. E.
