PRESS COMMENT ON
 MCDONALD COMPANY.

''Dixie Land" as played by the Mcdonald Company, was one of the most touching dramas, and the audience last night was a large and enthusiastic one, says the Fulton, Kentucky. Commer- .cial. It was full of fun and The old-time darkies of the South were all there in their inimical ,drollery and mirth Southern simplicity and ways of long ago. The scenes and character sketch es-the acting, songs and all, was so much a part of the South, that one was carried back once more to the Southern cornfield and cotton patches. The ''masher woman" had everything her own way, and Josephus Squashtop was it" sure enough. But the little soubrette was clear out of sight in her charming ways of caprice and sweet cunning. With the news of the rebellion, the old gents hysterical pantomime and the old lady was just awful in her nervous parade of excite ment and fear.

Forgot the Chimney.

A short time ago a public cer~ mony was to be carried out at Landshut, an important town in Lower Bavaria. A new public school was to be formally opened, and all Landshut quivered with pleasurable anticipation. Unfor' tunately the festivities had to be put of at the last moment. The school could not be opened. No scholar could take his seat upon the brand-new forms. The land was in the grip of winter, and the architect had forgotten to provide a single chimne, throughout the building.

SHARK AS A MESSENGER.
f.arried Newspaper to Sydney outdis tancing Steamer Conveying 1m-
 portant Item of News.

The story of the discovery of human bones and bangles in the interior of the crocodile captured at Fort Johnson, Rhodesia, brings to mind another story which may appositely be recalled at the present juncture. Every body has heard of Mrs. Macquar rie's chair," as they call the east ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney harbor. There, says the St James Gazette, it was that poor emigrant, in pre-cable days, killed and lowed ashore a shark, cut him up, and found a London newspa per in the internals. In the paper was the announcement of the war between France and Germany. The shark had outdistanced tho steamer by which tho mail was coming, and here the discoverer had the fact to himself. He gave his information to a wealthy wool dealer, who bought all the sea sons clip at 9d. per pound, anl sold at 3s. after the news of the war had arrived by the ordinary channel. He cleared, it is said. four millions sterling by the deal. The man who killed the shark and extracted the news of price-well, he received a battered silk hut and a five shilling piece and unre. strained liberty as to the disposal of the shark.

WAS WAsHINcToN's STAFF.
Interesting History of Cane onos Owned by Father of His
 Country.

One of the things that passed through the Baltimore fire un. scathed was a cane once owned by George Washington and now the property of Maj. Fl. H. Raleigh. The cane reposed during the fire in the vault of the Merchants Credit and Collection Bureau at Libertr and German streets, says the N, Y York Sun.
 wn Gen. Washington's will," said Maj. Raleigh, 1.-two canes are mentioned. One was bequeathed to Robert Washington, of Chop tank, Va, who gave it to Robert Thompson, a relative.
 "Later it passed to Miss Kittie Thompson, a sister of Robert Thompson, and finally Peter Ora. son Washington oe New York. who was assistant secretary of the treasury under Guthrie, was the owner of the stick.
 "Peter Grason Washington be- queathed the cane to the oldest male heir of Gen. George Wash. ington who was living at the time of his death. The late Mrs. Ra. leigh was a granddaughter of . Mrs. McPherson, of Washington, D. C., who before her marriage was a Miss Washington. After some contention it was proved that Mrs. Raleigh's brother, whose family name was Edwards, was the person entitled to the pos. Session of the cane. I purchased the relic for my wife, and when she died it became my property.s
 Although described as a cane. the relic is really staff. It is of bamboo, about four and a half feet long and just such stick as Washington might have used in tramping over his broad acres in Mount Vernon. The Washington coat-of-arms adorns it's gold head, anditis encircled with a gold band, upon which is inscribed:
 "Willed to Robert Washington and by him to descend to Peter Grason Washington, of New York"
 As soon as the embers had cooled, Maj. Raleigh hastened to the vault and was much relieved 10 find after tie cane had been re moved from the chamois skin case that 1t had not been scorched.

co-EDs rokEHo MARRIAGE.
Gsatistics Show That Chances of Col 1ege Women Becoming Wives Arc
 Rapidly Decreasing.

Over four-flfths of the women grAdu. Etes Of the University of Chicago are on the high road to spinsterhood. This Is tho startling result of researches con- ducted by Mayo Fesler. who. as general secretary of the Alumni and Alumnae as' sociations of the institution. has come piled statistics of the university and ito students in the form of general register, covering the first decade of the univer- sity's history. The figures do not include the women who have taken higher de- grees. but only those who have completed the undergraduate courses and who therefore, might be expected to be win- some enough to tempt the heart of the average man.
 The register contains the names oi b98 women who have received bachelor degrees from 1898 to 1902 Inclusive. The fate of these coeds is shown by the fol- lowing percentage table:
 Percentage women married. d................l .le PeYcentage women teachers. .............N .N Percentage women ''at oms"............u
 An examination of the table for each class shows that the chances of the sx. co-eds for becoming wives arc steadily growing less. The first class that sradu- Ated in 1893 contained three women and all of them married. The next class had nine feminine members and not ono of them has yet entered the bonds of matri- mony. The class of 1895 has higher percentage and then comes the class of 1886 with . marriage percentage of & ~ tx. t~pnv, or vr ravchara From th A | hme there has been steady decrease. of

departments working harmoni
ously together. In coming into
this organization it is necessary
to study all these departments es-
pecially the one taken up by our
State. to learn why they exist,
how they work and the good that
has been done by each; in short,
what the W. G. T. U. has accom-
plished. Learn this lesson we'll,
lest you be in the dilemma in
which [ oncefound myself. Meet
ing an acquaintance, who did not
approve of our work he said to
me, in what Samantha Allen
would call severe accent"
Chow do your departments work,
and what has your organization
ever done?:" Now we have forty
departments, and have charm
lag leafet with the title: "What
the W. C. T. U. has Accomplish.
ed." written by our national cor
responding secretary, but unfor-
tunately I did not have this leaf
let in my pocket nor in my head
and. having so much to say in so
short a time and not knowing
well just how to answer, | felt
very much like the centipede in
the fable. You know they say:
The centipede was happy quite,
Until the toad for fun
Said: s:Pray which foot comes after
which?''
This worked her mind to such pitch
She lay distracted in the ditch.
Considering how to run.
To any one who do not see this
work as we do, I pray you do
your work as God gives you
grace to do it, but if you cannot
help the women do not hinder
them. You remember at one
time in the life of our Lord those
who loved Him were shouting,
His praises and others standing
near tried to hush them, when
the Lord rebuked them, saying:
''I tell you that if these should
hold their peace the stones would
Immediately cry out" This aw.
full minataur is strong and well
entrenched in a labyrinth the
women may not enter. He is de-
vouring one by one those they
love better than their lives. He
is wringing out and drinking
their hearts blood drop by drop.
Let them do what they may, do
not try to hinder or hush them
lest the stones cry out-lest some
awful catastrophe of nature be-
fall US for,
Think not earth is blind to human woes,
Man has more friends and helpers than
he knows,
And when a noble people are op-
pressed,
The land that bore them feels il in
her breast,
Spirits OF field and flood, OF heath and
hill,
Are grieved and angry at the spread
ing Ill,
The trees complain together in the
night,
Voices of wrath are heard along the
height:
And secret vows are sworn by stream
and strand
To bring the monsters low and lberate
the 'land.''
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1904-10-12

the enemy's country than his
sword was taken from him, and
without this he was helpless.
After some time of waiting, the
daughter of a king restored his
sword and led him to the en-
trance of the labyrinth. She told
him all the danger, the danger
of never being able to find his
way out and of being overcome
and eaten by the monster. In
only one way could she help him
She would stand at the entrance
to the labyrinth holding in her
hand one end Of a white silken
cord, he would hold the other
in his left hand while he fought
the minataur with his right, and
following this cord at the end Of
the fight, find his way out. Again
and again during the awful con-
fict he almost lost hope; but a
slight tugging at the whites silken
cord reminded him Of the pos
sibility of escape, and gave him
fresh hope and courage until he
came out victor, and left the
minataur dead in the labyrinth.
This seems to be a prophetic
allegory;; though written thous-
ands of years ago, it isa wonder
full allegory Of our own times.
