latter days. Every phase OF Democratic opinion

Protection for the Arrenians.

A cablegram from London last night
SAYS: Great Britain has successfully
brought pressure to bear on the porte for
the relief of the prosecuted Armenians.
according to statements in letter writ
ten by Foreign Secretary Lansdowne to
the Anglo Armenian Association. The let
ter says that Sir Nicholas OConor, the
British ambassador at Constantinople, in
long interview with the grand vizier,
Ferid Pasha, on June IA, pointed out to
that official the responsibility Of the porte
should the reports of Kurdish outrages
prove true. The ambassador called the
attention of the grand vizier to the de-
sign which had been accredited to the
Turkish authorities of driving the Ar
menians from their mountain homes to
the plains and urged that orders should
be sent to the vail of Bitlis that refugees
be allowed to return to their homes and
be given protection from the Kurds. The
grand vizier acquiesced in the wishes Of
Sir Nicholas O'Conor and telegraphed or
ders to that effect in the presence Of the
ambassador Lord Lansdowne said that
the porte had also granted permission for
a British officer to accompany any troops

THE NEGRo'S EDUCATIcN.
Booker T. Washington Discusses Its
Phases at ST. Louis

A dispatch from st. Louis last night says:
Members of the National Educational AS
sociatio today listened to address by
Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee, Ala.
He was greeted with enthusiastic applause.
He spoke in part as follows:
Judged purely from economic and
industrial point of view, the education OF
the negro is paying, and Will pay more
largely in the future in proportion as edu-
cational opportunities are increased.
"A careful examination shows that of
the men and women trained at Hampton
and Tuskegee, not 10 per cent can be found
In idleness at any season Of the year. They
have learned the beauty of work, the dis
grace of idleness
But it has been repeated with emphasis
that, no matter how much strength of mind
or skill of hand the black man may ac-
quire after all, the weak point In that edu-
cation does not help but retards his moral
growth, and that educated negro youths
are more given to crime than was true in
the older generations. A study of the
criminal statistics of the whole world
shows that it is the young people who are
most given to crime
But what are the facts as to the effect
of education? Within the last month
have asked and secured direct Informal
ton as TO the criminal records of the grad
yates of fifteen of the largest and Oldest
negro colleges and industrial schools and
the facts are that only two graduates out
of the whole number have ever been sem
fenced to prison, and at the present time
not single man or woman bearing the
diploma of one of these fifteen institutions
wears the prison garb.
THE records of the south show that 90
per cent of the colored persons in prison
are without knowledge of trade and 81
per cent are illterate. This statement
alone disproves the assertion that the ne
gro grows in crime as he secures educa.
ton. If the negro at the north is more
criminal than his brother at the south IL
Is largely because the north withholds from
nyann trtraifx fl. ,a,.rD. -
the south gives. 1t Is not the educated
negro who has been guilty of or even
charged with crime. 1t is, as a rule, the
one who has mere smattering of educa-
ton or who is in total ignorance"

FRENCH ARMY SCANDAL.
Three Officers Under Arrest for Alleged
Bribery-Paris Sensation.

cablegram from Paris last night says:
The arrest of three officers of the active
service, Lieutenant Colonel Rollins, Captain
FRANCOIS and Captain Mareschal, in con-
nection with the case against M. Doutriche,
has caused a sensation In Paris. The exact
charge against them is not made known
officially. Rollin was chief of the so-called
information bureau in which Doutriche was
a subordinate official during the Rennes
trial. Francois and Mareschal were also
employed by the bureau at the same time.
1t is assumed by the press that these Off
GERS are accused of completely in the pro-
ceedings of Doutriche, who is charged with
having by means Of erasure falsified the
accounts of the information bureau, with
the object Of concealing the payment of a
sum of money to the witness, Czernuski.
who gave evidence at Rennes against Drey-
fus In the course of the inquiry instituted
by the criminal chamber of the court of
cessation, based upon the alleged fait nou-
veau.
The judge discovered in one account book
Of the bureau the item: paid to Austen
litz, 1900 f." the word Austerlitz being
written over an erasure. Inquiry as to the
identity of the recipient Of this sum led to
repeated examinations Of Rollins Francois
AMI Mareschal. 1t was after their con-
formation yesterday morning, In the pres
ence of a representative of the court-mar-
tial that they were arrested.
1t Is stated by one of the morning papers
that General Delanne; who was chief of
the general staff at the time the payment
was made, had declared, in the course of
the present inquiry, that his subordinates'
information bureau obtained his signature
to an order for the payment of the 1900
francs by means of a subterfuge. 1t is
suggested that the arrest of the officers
was decided on in consequence of the de-
position of General Delanne and of other
facts that afterward came to light. An.
other government organ is responsible for
the statement that the officers made dam
aging admissions during the course ca the
inquiry.

The Nominal Fee Charged by the Krum Physicians Is
Not Intended to Bar Out Any Class of Sufferers
In Need of Care and Attention

The New System Of Medicine perma-
nentiy located at No. 6O4 Market street,
founded by DR.. Krum. is intended TO
provide facilities that cannot be afford
ed in ordinary private practice for the
speedier and more certain cure of
chronic catarrh. asthma. rheumatism,
kidney disease. skin diseases. stomach
diseases. nervous affections and all
other ailments requiring various arti-
hcial conveniences and appliances as
aid to effective treatment. The insti-
tute is drawing an immense attend
ance Of all classes of sufferers and do
ing a world Of good. its success being
such that some similar plan viii doubt
less be adopted by others In the profess
sion. An impression may, Of course,
prevail. owing to its very expensive
and elaborate equipment, that the
Krum Medical Institute is more or less
exclusive IN its patronage It is
conducted mainly for privileged pa
tients and for the benefit Of people
OF large HlhAMcs I nc lAlllANNolNlA rs just
as erroneous as to conceive that the
atre, or a public library. or a park. or
a church. is intended to favor one class
OF attendants and to chill another class
TO its partial or complete exclusion.
And no sick person entering the plain,
quiet, sensible-looling reception rooms
OF the Krum Medical Institute is ever
daunted or embarrassed by gaudy OF
pretentious surroundings, or by any
thing stiff. or cold. or naughty, or dis
tant IN the reception they receive. To
state It plainly, they are made to feel
al home and made TO feel welcome As
to ceremony, there is no ceremony, be-
yond respect and politeness. And.
considering the work and purpose OF
the system, 1t would be strange If IL
were otherwise. In fact it is to let
everybody into admit poor people as

and the second floor over both stores
was utilized for salesrooms. With this
additional space, the business of the
store extended very rapidly, and it was
soon found that the room was utterly
inadequate for business that seemed
to grow every day. At this time to
increase the facilities the firm extended
the second floor over the entire store,
which increased the available room
about one-third.
In a short time even this large store
was too small. and arrangements were
made for the purchasing Of the two

move the Office space is practically

building is devoted to work rooms.

goods which this firm gives with their
coupons.
Even with this immense amount Of
space there was not enough room, and
this year arrangements were effected
by Mr. Lippincott that secured the
property at 3i4 Market street. and it
has now been added to the already ex-

This marked the greatest advance
ever made in the store at one time,
more than doubling the space avail

great step OF advancement, and gave
Lippincott & Company practically the
largest store in Wilmington.
Shortly after this change the firm of
