The South and the NeQro.

Clark Howell, editor Of the Atlanta
Constitution, writing in Golfers for
October %, says in part:
The south can be, and is, both fair
and just to the negro. and the only
thing that stands in the way Of the
establishment of entirely peaceful and
friendly relations between the two
races is the friction mat is engender-
ed by the use to which Republicans
are putting the negro for selfish, par
t!san ends-poisoning him against his
real best friends and making 1T the
more difficult for the white people of
the south to do for him what they
would, in elevating the race to the
pane of good citizenship. if left to
work out the problem without being
constantly beset by the firebrands OF
sectional misrepresentation and racial
antagonism.
At no time since the days OF recon
struction has the tension between the
races in the south been so marked as
it is now. and it is the more remark
able in that this condition immediate
-ly follow an era OF unprecedented
harmony in the relations between the
whites and the blacks.
For this deplorable development no
one is more responsible than Presi-
dent Roosevelt; and for the long pc
riod of amicable and friendly relation
preceding his administration the
country at large will never know
what it owes to ex-President Cleve-
lard and to the lamented Mckinley
Cleveland proved that Democratic
president sould be and would be.
Just and fair to the negro as a citi-
zen, and it remained for Mckinley
to establish the fact that even where
political exigency demanded that the
Eegro be awarded an office, it could
he done in way that left no sting.
the people of the south were con-
yinced that it was neither Mckinley's S
desire, not pleasure, to ride rough
sEod over their inbred sensibilities
or their domestic traditions.

HOW TO MAKE A
PAPER DOLL HUOSE.

Paper dolls have a charm that tho
delicate and costly bisque dolls can
never attain. Possibly because it is
easier for the young mother to keep
Ter numerous family clothed in the
latest styles. With a removable head
paper doll can wear simple frocks
in the morning and a Partisan gown
t, dinner. with hats to match every
costume. But such up to date people
strongly object to being shut up into
the leaves of book. 1t is worse than
a fiat.
The little girl can make an mex
rensive and elegant doll house from
two orange boxes Get two nice, clean
orange boxes from the grocer. They
lave a partition down the middle.
Clean them carefully and place one
eli top of the other. Don't fasten
them together. for they are more
easily moved about if separate.
See what possibilities this house has.
T. has two stories with four rooms.
Ask mamma for some pieces of wall
Taper. and carefully paper the rooms.
Then little white muslin curtains can
be tackled to the wall where windows
should be Drawn back and tied with
pretty ribbons. they look like real
windows. Small pieces of plain, heavy
Goth will make fine carpets. Rea
carpetins is bit bulky.
Now for the furniture. For sofa

about five inches long, two and halt
inches wide and high. Cut similar
piece only thinner. for the back and
two pieces of broom handle. sawed
two inches long, for the arms. Cover
the back and seat with layer of cot
ton wadding, and then with any scraps
Of plain green velvet of other suitable
stuff from mammals piece box. Put
the covers on with any tiny tacks
and sew the velvet on the arms.
When all the pieces are neatly cover
ed, tack the back on the seat and sew
the arms into the place. Behold n
tunning sofa!
Big easy chairs and small straigh
chairs without arms can be made or
brocaded satin or velvet made in IN
same way. Dining room furniture is
the hardest to make, but title think
er can plan very attractive room.
The bedrooms are easy. A block
draped with lowered dimity answers
for a bureau and dresser and a
larger and lower block we'll padded
makes a luxurious bed. Pillows and

The "Four Hundred"

When Lady Washington presided
over the Macomb house, at 80 Broad
way, and held levees on the sixth day
OF every week, there were three hun
dred persons in New York City con-
s:dered to be of the first quality"
This was the number that appeared
at the Marquis de MOustier's ball in
May. 1889. At the beginning of the
succeeding century, when Mrs. An
felica Schuyler Church, the acknowl-
edged social leader of the growing
city, gave a junket on Robinson
street. the list had decreased to two
hundred. Blow out Times candles
and bring in a new generation, and
We find Mrs. BrevoOrt, the queen OF
the give Hundred" In 1860 comes
the beautiful Mrs. Edward COoper's
reign, and we learn that the best So
ciety of New York is designated as
"the Three Thousand And SO the
number has changed until the pres
ent period. Today the organized So
ciety of the metropolis is headed by
two bodies-neither with leaders.
One is called the "moneyed Set" and
the other "the old family set" but
both names seem to be misnomers.
lr the former one finds people whose
antecedents have long been noted in
the social history of the city. while
the latter is decidedly promsicuous
in it's gatherings.
A New Yorker who has made a Sc
rlous study of genealogy asserts that
after careful research he finds there
are not ten families now occupying
conspicuous social positions in both
sets whose progenitors' names ap-
reared on Mrs. John Jays dinner
list. What has become of the others
that vast army of North River So
ciety for whom Washington Irving
played the part of an American Addi-
son. and the numerous cOteries fol
lowing it? Why do we not longer
hear names that were in the mouths
of multitudes? The answer is plain
enough There can never be any
permanent aristocracy in New York
It is the city of changes, where men
forget An ancient lineage, unvar
nished by gold dust, counts for
! naught. A well-known writing th
recollections of her girlhood lamented
that it formerly took three genera
tions in New York to accomplis h
the work of one modern fortune. She
might have added that it now takes
but one generation to forget
three fortunes.-From New York

Cerain reports have reached the
community composing the quiet

LYING WILL NOT WIN.

In mad effort to elect certain
candidates, some supporters Of the
Citizens ticket bavc charged the
members Of the present village
board with conduct little short Of
criminal in the handling Of village
funds. They have fabricated a
story that a donation Of 300 for
sidewalk improvement has been
spirited away by the board and
has never been heard OF since.
They do not know who gave this
mythical sum OF money or any
thing else about it. The bare as
sertion that it was given and made
away with appears to be sufficient
to them to accomplish their ends.
This bit Of mental contortion
has about as much truth in il, and
as much foundation for its telling, |
as has that other story which has
been pcrs stantly circulated dur
ing the week, to the effect that the
village is without cent in its
treasury and is owing many bills
which cannot be paid. The report
OF Treasurer Waldron which is
published on the first page OF this
issue punctures that fabrication
so effectually that all the bot air
certain supper ers Of the Citizens
ticket can .prcdu c will never again
successfully inflat it.
Perhaps the most remarkable
feature Of this whole business is I
that in view Of such grave charges
OF dishonesty and incompetency I
against the present village trustees, |
the fathers Of the Citizens ticket t
placed J r White, chairman OF y
the present board, who by virtue I
Of his office approves all claims 2
against the village, and f. Il. !.

tees on that ticket. Were Messrs. h

ing OF franchise for water works
system and leasing OF the water
which belongs to the inhabitants
OF the village of Shoshone to a
water company to be used for the
exclusive use OF the inhabitants of
the village OF Shoshone, they have
seen fit To 90 so far as to say that
the present owner or owners Of the
franchise who control the lease of
the water have decided to irrigate I
300 acre farm lying just east Of
the village, and thus deprive the
people OF even drop to drink;
that the granting OF the franchise
was simply a subterfuge and done
solely to disarm the people and the
village board OF the thought that
there was anything wrong in mix
ing such grant

tactics, they have been known to
