Slate School Enrolment.

There was a total of 1886, ,542
pupils enrolled in the public
schools Of Arkansas during the
school year ending in June, 1904,
according to figures compiled by
the department of education from
the reports of the county exami-
ners.
A popularity shown in these
figures is that there are moro
white males in the public school:
than white females, while there
are more females than males
among the negroes enrolled in
the schools. This is found to be
true in almost every county ir
the state. 1t has also been found
that this rule holds good in the
total population as we'll as the
pupils enrolled in the schools.

BLOODY RACE WAR LIKELY.
Ben R. Tillman, the pitchforl

Ben r. Tillman, the pitchfork
senator from South Carolina, has
recently made some sensational
statements regarding the ques-
ton of the races. In a statement
in response to a request for an
expression of his opinion on the
question whether mob violence
and the burning Of negroes will
not ultimately destroy the repub-
lie he says:
"The action of the mob at
Statesboro, Ca, is to be deplored,
but more deplorable still is the
fact that a whole family of white
people were butchered-stamped
out by two fiends and their ac-
complices," that "Mobs are bad,
but they are evidences of a spirit
of liberty" that "The Southern
people are confronted by a con-
dition such as has never existed
in the history of the world" that
"From necessity we used force
and fraud to overcome the negro
majority" that Grace antagon-
ism and race hatred grow apace,
and that, inspired by the actions
and utterances Of President
Roosevelt, the negroes have given
evidence only too plentiful OF
, hope and belief that their time
will come again. y "The crimi-
.nal classes among the negroes
9increase at a fearful rate, and,
Iunless the Northern people can
.be made to understand that the
negro equality is something that
will not be tolerated and that no
l'power in the world can force it
upon us, race war is inevitable
land the negroes will be extermi-
mated. In such as is threatened
tby the Republican party, only
,aggravates the already. strained
relations between the races"
The Northern people can help
lis if they will by sympathy and
cooperation, but they have got

Cruel Treatment Of the Russo
Jewish Soldier

Ic SOlulCl, LII CIC uCW huIIA-
Der Of the Nineteenth Century, remarks
that there is one class of soldier which
has ''no particular cause to sing" be-
cause marching forms very small part
of it's duties. These are the soldiers who
work day and night in the tailors', car
penters' and smiths shops in barracks.
"They are frequently Jews,' says Mr..
Joubert, "and that is another reason why
their officers maltreat them"
"You have made the sleeves Of my
uniform too long," shouted a younker to
a wretched little tailor in my presence.
81 am sorry, highborn. They shall be
altered''
"They should have been right to begin
with, Judas Iscariot," the officer re-
joined, and with blow in the face Of
the tailor he walked out of the shop.
1 did not hear that Jewish tailor sing
after the officer had gone; only heard
the sewing machine going like mill
But, judging from Mr. Joubert's arti-
Gle, the Jewish soldiers lot is not partic-
ularly worse than that of his Christian
comrades, who are treated with "syste
matte brutality by their officers"
The current number of Free Russia
contains a dispatch from st. Petersburg
stating that recently Jewish soldier of
the Thirty-seventh artillery brigade,
named Gleser, was court martialed for
an offense against one of his superior.
"The matter rose in this way" says the
journal, "some Of the men of the Thirty
seventh brigade were ordered to action
in the Far East among them Jew who
had volunteered his services. The ser
geant Of the battery began to sneer at
and insult this Jew. Gleser, who was
standing by after listening Indignantly
for some time, lost his temper, and said
to the sergeant: Why do you insult
him? He is going to give his life for his
country; and you abuse him. You are
more fit to be swineherd than a SER
geant. Gleser was court martialed for
this, and condemned to two years of
"penitential service
In dispatch from Riga, published in
the same Journal reference is made to a
proclamation headed, "Do Not Kill"
which was circulated among the soldiers
The colonel of the Taborsk regiment
summoned the Second and Fourth bat
talions, and in a speech denounced the
proclamation. He began to read it to
them to illustrate his words, when he
was suddenly seized with fear and
stopped short; then he began to abuse
the Jews, saying the whole thing was
their work, that they had no religion, and
that they were traitors to the Russian

GREAT RABBI DEAD.

News has just been received in this
country that Chief Rabbi Chayim Aryeh
Halen Ish Durwitz Of Cracow, one Of the
greatest rabbis Of Galacia, died on Sat-
urday, November 2Oth at the age Of
fifty.
Chief Rabbi Durwitz came from a
family Of rabbis, his father, who is still
living, and all his brothers, hold rab-
binical positions
Though not an academically trained
rabbi, the Austrian government per-
mitted him to bear the title Of chief
rabbi as a mark Of honor, the deceased
rabbi having been one Of the ''Gaonim"
Of the country. He was well known
everywhere for his scholarship and fine
character By his tact and love Of
peace he managed throughout the
whole period of his incumbency to pre-
serve the unity of the community, by
no means an easy task in any Galacian
community.
On the day of his funeral, on Sun
day, the 21st ult, every Jewish busi-
ness house in Cracow was closed, there
was no performance in the Yiddish
theater, and all festivities were post
poned.-Jewish Comment.
Mr.. Oliver Bainbridge, who recently
arrived in Cape Town, after an eight
years tramp in unfrequented parts, told
a representative of the Cape Times Of
the discovery he had made Of a race Of
strange people in central New Guinea,
whom he calls "Black Jews" Both in
feature, religion and customs, he says,
the likeness to the white Hebrew race is
remarkable, the one great difference be-
ing that the New Guinea specimens Of
the twelve tribes are black. Among
them are to be found many Albinos.
Asked if they were intelligent, Mr.. Balm
bridge replied that they were, but the
only sign Of an educational system he OBJ
served was tablets used in religious OBJ
servances.

A POSSIBLE FACTOR.

Wireless telegraphy may play I part in impending naval operations in the Yellow sea. The impression prevails in Washington that Russia has adopt ed combination of features winch originated with Ducretel and Popoff, the former being a Frenchman and the latter a subject Of the czar. Japan has eXperimented with the Marconi sys- tenn, but it is not believed that her vessels are fully equipped with it yet.
 A comparison between the two kinds of apparatus would not be feasible without fuller details. For military than is needed in the merchant marine Ability to transmit messages to a dig tance of fifty or a hundred miles is practically sufficient for the Philadel- phia or the Lucania. A guarantee against orders being overheard by an enemy just out of sight beyond the horizon will prove exceedingly handy in emergencies such are likely tc arise in the next few days. Marconi has not sought to furnish that safeguard in the outfits supplied to ocean liners, but for year or two he has been con- fident that he could insure secrecy when he wanted to. If Japan has been able to take advantage of his latest improvements, she may be amply re- paid for any possible delay in com pleting her equipment The first test of wireless telegra phy in a naval cam paiGn will be awaited eagerly-New York Tribune

CURRENT COMMENT
THE POINT AT ISSUE.

The statement given out at TOkio is apparently a fair proposition of the Japanese case against Russia. In brief, the assertion is that if Man churia is to be a Russian province, Korea can be kept from falling into the Czar's possession only by Japanese occupation. .s... ,. i-
 Japan at first proposed what amounted to a friendly division of the spells; in return for Japanese Iecog- milton of Russia's paramount interests in Manchuria, the czar was asked to recognize the Mikado's ascendency in Korea. The St. Petersburg govern ment was ready to have Japaa wash its hands of Manchuria, but refused in return to concede Korcl. 1l,is country, it insisted, should be neutral. Tn view of the history of Russian ex- pansion Japan felt no confidence in the neutrality of weak power in the part of the Muscovite advance.
 Under the circumstances fluSsi m guarantees would be worthi a,;s, no matter how sincere they might be. For trade, spreading from Mancll.ria lnuc Korea, would eventually necessitate a Russian protectorate over the ;Jciiil.- sula. The only possible barrier to such an event would be the neutrlli- zation of Korea Dy international agreenent--as has been done II the case of Switzerland and of Belg.unl- or Japanese occupation.
 In the absence cf information neu- tralization the controversy amounts merely to dispute as to which power

The Weeks War.

The week which ended last night has been the stormiest the world has sen since the midst of the war in South Af;;ca. The close of it was, however, quite tame in comparison with the be- ginning. It was like the month of March, which, when it comes in like a lion goes out like lamb. But there will not be so tame at the clcse or a't any period between the beginning and. the end.
 The war may have an early ending, as many predict. but it is difficult to see on what the prediction is based, for the surface signs at least point to a prolonged struggle, with the possibility Of the involution of nations which do net at this time intend to get into it. The mood of England is threatening, too threatening perhaps for earnest ness. It appears that if that nation were really serious she would be less cstentatious in this stage of the strug gle. On the other hand, she may re- gard this as her opportunity, and the only one she may have. to catch her ancient and dreaded enemy at disad- vantage. She will probably never again have such a powerful ally as Japan has proved that she would be, and in a struggle with Russia she must have an ally.
 The nti-Muscovite party in Eng land has always been a powerful and an insistent cne No doubt war would have been undertaken against Russia a generation ago but for the peace loving Gladstone. It was urged then by one of the most active of the war party, Colonel Frederick BurRaby. who also perhaps knew more of Rus that the struggle was inevitable; that the sooner it was precipltated the bet ter it would be for Great Britain; that a time was coming when it would be a hopeless contest, The predictions of a man who was regarded as a hct headed soldier have been borne out by the development of the Russian policy.
 But if Great Britain should throw herself into this war she woali entSr upon a game fer great stakes. If she should turn out to be on the winning side she need no longer dread Russia. On the other hand, if she should be on the losing side she would bid farewell tc India, and to what level she should sink among the powers would be a subject of interesting conjecture.
 Nor would Russia be alone. France would be at her side, and it might transpire that in the turning of the worlds Kaleidoscope Germany, strange as it would seem, would be in the group with France.

cHEsTERFIELD's CURIOUS sPIRE

The devil hs q just had his hoofs shod hv a local blacksmith and his pain was so intense the edifice was shaken out Of shape. Another and w:ttier legend says the spire was lowing to a lovely and vir- tuous bride.
