Harold is the son of a downtown
stock broker, says the PHILADELPHIA
Record. His mother was a well known
school teacher in one of the Friends
schools of this city. Visitors to the
house always make much of the child
and are frequently amused by his
quaint remarks. Not long ago a we'll
known literary man was a guest. Har-
old was deputized to entertain the Wis
itor while his parents were absent.
Il see you have a penny" said the
gentleman, by way of breaking the
ice.
Yes, sir" answered the bright boy
My mother gave me that penny"
And what are you going to do with
it?" the visitor continued
Why" shrewdly answered the child,
as he put his head on one side, II am
going to put it with the penny you are
going to give me and buy box of col
ored chalk"
On another occasion a woman met
Harold on the street. Harold" she
said. you don't come to see me any
more. l miss you very much. You
know you used to run in to see me
every dav."
We'll" said Harold, assuming an air
of great dignity, Il am very busy now,
yc'l know"
'Busy?" the woman said. with an
amused smile, land what can little
boy like you find to be busy about?"
Why" the boy returned, we've got
patrol box at the end of our street,
you know. and I'm kept busy running
there to see them arrest people"

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Mobile Register Dem) says;
IF the Republican platform, as
drafted by Mr.. Roosevelt denounces
the Acknowledgement of the negroes in
the Southern States as an encroach-
ment on the rights guaranteed by the
constitution, as we are told it does, it
will be in conflict with the only Su-
preme Court decision that has been had
on the subject"
The Galveston News ,(Dem.) says:
THE canal is ours, or rather the streak
of land through which the canal is to
be cut has been transferred to the
United States government The title
has passed. and the digging is due to
begin as soon as the diggers with their
digging things can be transported to
the diggings. Nothing will satisfy the
American people now but an actual
visible. seryiceable waterway that will
answer the purpose-a ditch that Will
hold water and afford flotation for
ocean-going ships for all time to
come"
The Houston (Tex.) Post (Dem.)
says: TT is now in order for the anti
Parker men in Texas and other states
to call Williams an apostate and re-
John H. Reagan and John Sharp Will
liams espouse the cause of Parker, we
do not fear that the noisy demonstra-
lions of those who seem bent upon de-
stroying party harmony will have any
great weight with the Democratic
masses. AS the situation appears
now, the party has nothing whatever
to fear from the reorganizers. The dis
organizers are making all the trouble,
but the party viii survive II"
The New Orleans Picayune (Dem.)
says: Among the younger members of
the national House of Representatives
the Southern States have furnished not
a few who are showing conspicuous
ability. They were all born since the
Civil War, or they were little children
at the time it was in progress, there
fore Il is that they cannot be charged
with having taken part in the war of
secession and are not tainted with the
treason OF which their elders have been
so falsely accused. Thus il is that the
mark which they are making in ma
tionRl affairs win rebound TO the ben
efit as well as to the homer Of the
South"

His Cause of Complaint.

Good gracious!" said Miss B,
the typewriter, who works for firm
of lawyers with offices not far from
Broad and Chestnut streets, according
to the Philadelphia Press. THE chief
is in a horrible humor to-day. I've
never seen him like this before. He
snapped at me horribly when l went
in to take some dictation from him this
morning. And when he spelt axle
tree wrong and l corrected him he
flew into a rage and threatened to dis
charge me-"
Il saw it this morning when he
bet yer life I'm keeping out of his
way"
Just then Mr.. - opened his office
door and chillngly said:
Miss b, if you are not too busy
talking to that boy, I'd like to give
you some dictatlon.
In half an hour she came out flush
ed and excited.
oh! he treats us just like dirt" she
said, almost crying. II wish l had
stayed with that lumber company on
Front street."
This excited the rest of the office
and one of the other stenographers de-
clared:
He's generally the kindest man 1
ever knew" and even the Office boy
said yes" to this. But by noon the
Office force was in a state bordering on
panic. When for the tenth time the
chief took down his phone and they
heard him murmuring through the
closed office door, the astute office boy
said:
Il guess he'll fire us all now, sure
'nough. He would not listen to Mr..
W, that rich man who comes in
here so much, just now"
The lawyer stayed at the phone a
long time, but when he opened his
door later he came out beaming, look
ed around and smiled TREMENDOUSLY.
She came out of it beautifully" the
doctor said. The anesthetic went off
and she walked like baby. And he
says the cut in her throat can be
covered by string of beads"
What are you talking about?" ask
ed his partner.
My little girl has just been oper-
ated upon at the hospital. It's Wednes-
day and you can all take a holiday
and go to the matinee, and here's the
money for seats"
The two stenographers wiped their
eyes The clerks cleared their threats,
but the office boy glared around on all
belltgerently and said:
Say didn't 1 tell yer that the boss
was all right?"

THE DIVORCE EVIL.


Now that the ministers and the law
yers are striving to lessen the divorce
evil perhaps something to lessen that
evil will be accomplished. As
stated in our dispatches yesterday the
Interchurch Conference on Marriage
and Divorce has put forth its first APP
peal in which several aspects of the d.
vorce evil are presented. In this con-
ference there are fourteen leading
Protestant churches, and its purpose
is to so educate the public on the
divorce question that 1t will be posi-
bic to secure legislation that will
greatly aid in the suppression of the
divorce evil.
There is a movement among minis
tiers of some of the Protestant churches
to refuse to marry divorced persons.
II this movement can be made strong
enough to prohibit the marriage of di-
vorced persons by ministers, whether
in the churches or out of them, 1t will
go a long way towards bringing about
decrease in the number of divorces.
When divorced persons are not recog-
nized as being sufficiently respectable
to be married by religious ceremony
they will cease to have a good stand
ing in society, and when that time ar
rives there will be less anxiety to es-
cape the ills of nfatrimony. 1t hasn't
been so many years since divorced
persons were not accorded warm well
come in respectable society. In pro-
portion as the welcome increased in
heartiness, however, the number Of
divorces increased. In other words
just as soon as people found that they
didn't lose standing in their respective
social circles by being divorced they
resorted to the divorce courts for a
remedy for marital troubles in increas-
ing numbers.
The American Bar Association has
taken hold of this matter of divorce
with the view of securing legislation
that win lessen the evil. 1t appears
to be moving very slowly in the mat
ter, however, and it may be several
years before il will be ready to act.
Perhaps the ministers will prepare the
way for the legislation which the law
yers will propose. 1t will take a good
deal of hard work along the lines
which ministers and lawyers work to
secure such uniform divorce laws as
will check the divorce evil. When
there is one divorce TO every eight
marriages, as is the case now in some
OF the states. it is time for the Ameri-
can people to awaken to the fact that
there should be prompt and energetic
action against the evil.

In the May number of the Arena
there is an interesting article by Mr..
Clifford Wayne Hartridge on Business
Reasons versus Business Morals" It
is a study of the methods of Wall
street. THE people who make up
Wall street and the people who fur
nish the means for their existence"
says Mr. Hartridge, ARE all amenable
to the laws of this country. and the
fact that so much is said about the
criminals of Wall street, and so little is
accomplished in bringing those crimi-
nails to punishment, is not perhaps due
so much to the lack of laws to reach
them, or to the shrewdness of the OPP
orators themselves, as it is to the in
reference, purposely> or otherwise, of
outside powerful influences" OF the
author of the article the Arena says:
While among the more brilliant men,
bers of the New York bar, few have
taken a more active or Intelligent in
terest in efforts favorable to sound
morality and municipal integrity than
Mr. Hartridge. In discussing Business
Reasons versus Business Morals, he is
thoroughly at home with the subject
a subject which indeed is one of the
most vital now before the conscience
Of American manhood"

Il am honest" replied the applicant.

president
Yes, SIR
Would you pay even poker debt?"
Yes, sir
I'm sorry" said the president, but
we have no place for you"
When the applicant had left friend
of the president ventured to ask:
why didn't you employ him? He's
apparently honest enough"
Well" replied the president, "he
probably wouldn't steal but he tells
lies. No man ever pays poker debts"

The Gift of Growing

Judge Parker is enjoying a brief rest
from the criticisms that have been
showered upon him by Democrats who
are opposed TO making him the Demo-
cratic nominee for President. What
the Republicans say against him is not
a matter of much consequence, be-
cause it is expected they will try TO
make il appear that any Democrat
mentioned for the nomination Is I'M
worthy of the confidence of the people.
Democrats who are opposed to Judge
Parker have said about all they nave
to say against his candidacy aud
whatever they say in future will be re-
iteration of what they have already
said. OF course there are stories still
floating about as to Tammany's inter-
tons, but whether or not they have
any foundation II is impossible tc say.
The one thing that seems to be GER
tain about Tammany's position is that
Tammany has no objection TO Judge
Parker personally. II objects 10 him
simply because there is such a close
alliance between him and former SEN
ator David b. Hill.
If it should appear, before the meet
ing of the ST. Louis convention. that
Judge Parker. in the event of his NOM
ination and election, would be abso-
lutely fair in his treatment of Tam
many, the chances are that Tammany's
opposition to him would be withdrawn.
The opposition to him that is cropping
out now in different parts of the coun-
try is based wholly upon Tammany's
attitude. Some Southern and Western
Democrats who have been talking for
publication have fears that he couldn't
carry New York unless he had the
hearty support of Tammany. They ex-
press themselves as satisfied with him
in all other respects.
The Tammany leader Mr.. Murphy,
has been quoted as saying that Tam
many would withdraw its opposition
to the nomination of Judge Parker pro-
Vided he would make certain pledges
relative to the federal patronage in
New York. OF course Judge Parker
cannot give pledges now. If he should
do so the fact would become known
and be used to defeat his nomination.
And there is no probability that un-
der any circumstances, he would give
pledges that would amount to the
abandonment of the friends who have
stood by him since his candidacy was
first announced. II he should do such
thing as that he wouldn't be worthy
of the nomination.
What he can do. and doubtless viii
do, is 20 give assurances that Tam
many shall have absolutely fair treat
ment. Tammany cannot ask anything
more than that.
The fact that Mr.. Hearst secured the
Iowa delegation Is being heralded over
the country as an indication that Judge
Parker is losing ground. Iowa is
Bryan stronghold, and it was not I'M
expected that it's delegation would be
for Mr.. Hearst. Mr.. Hearst is getting
delegates in strong Republican states.
MIR. Bryan's friends are doing their
utmost for him. and that accounts for
his success in those states. The states
that give Democratic majorities, or
from which Democratic majorities are
expected, are choosing Parker men as
delegates. Judge Parker hasn't lost
any ground yet. and there are no in
dications that he viii lose any.

THE INCOMPLETE FAIR.

Savannahians returning from St
Louis tell the same story about the
incomplete condition of the fair that is
being told in the newspapers. The
buildings are not finished and the ex-
hibits are not in place. In view OF the
fact that the opening of the fair was
put off a year it seems appropriate to
ask If the fair would be complete at
the opening date if It's gates should be
closed now to be opened year hence.
Why is it that great expositions are
never ready for the opening? Unless
we are greatly mistaken the st. Louis
fair has not been delayed on account
of a lack of money or because of
strikes. 1t is stated that $4,000 men
are at work on it now. Would It not
have been possible to put enough men
at work on the buildings and grounds
to complete them by the day fixed for
the opening? And why are fairs OPEN
ed before they are ready for visitors
1t is evident that visitors don't get the
worth of their money. For instance,
the Savannahian quoted In yesterdays
Morning News was permitted to enter
only one or two of the buildings. He
was told they were not yet in con-
dition that would justify the admission
of visitors.
II is to be expected that some of the
exhibitors will be tardy. Many OF
them have good excuses, but we have
heard of no valid excuse for the fail
ure to have the buildings ready on the
opening day.
But, Notwithstanding the confusion
on the fair grounds now, everything
win be in order within month, and
then there will be seen the greatest of
the worlds expositions. And there is
no reason for doubling that the at
tendance will be greater than that of
any preceding exposition.

The BOyheart.
From the Reader

The boyheart! The boyheart!
1t lies within your breast.
All ready to go leaping when your soul
is at its best
When on the street there comes to you
a whistle or a call.
Or but the echo of song whose happy
measures fall
Upon the chords of a memory, and
rouse them into life
Until they send a surging thrill as
rich as drum or fife
I
The boyheart! The boyhearti
1t may be but a rose
That mods in careless glee at one as
idly on he goes;
But instantly he sees a street that
wanders I'D and down
Between the sleepy fences of the quiet
little town:
Or maybe it's a country road where
swaying branches spread
And build an arching canopy of
branches overhead.
The boyhearti The boyheart!
The embers in the crate
May paint for one the picture that will
bring the thoughts elate-
A picture of the meadowlands which
reach beside the brook
And blend into a forest where there's
many a leafy nook,
Where every tree that waves it's arms,
and swings and sweeps and
SwayS.
Is waiting shouts and laughter from
the boytinne summer days!
The boyheart! The boyheart!
Pray that you have 1t yet!
A-many times It's tugging thrills will
leave your eyelids wet;
A-many times its sudden beats will
set your blood afiame
When out of all the other years will
come a whispered name;

you wandered when a lad,
