to let the world know the concrete

DOING ONES BEST.
1t Is Good Chara cter Forming Hab-
it to Cultivate.

This habit of always doing ones best
enters into the very marrow of ones
heart and character. 1t affects ones
bearing ones self possession The
man who does everything to a finish
has feeling of serenity. He is not
easily thrown off his balance. He has
nothing to fear. and he can look the
world in the face because he feels con-
scious that he has not put shoddy into
anything, that he has had nothing
TO do With shams and that he has al
ways done his level best. The sense of
craft, of being equal to any emergency,
the consciousness of possessing the abil-
ity to do with superiority whatever one
undertakes will give soul satisfaction
which half hearted, slipshod worker
never knows.
When a man feels throbbing within
him the power to do what he under
takes as we'll as it can possibly be done,
and all his faculties say Amen" to
what he is doing and give their unqual-
flied approval to his efforts-this is
happiness, this is success. This buoy
ant sense of power spurs the faculties
to their fullest development. 1t un-
folds the mental, the moral and the
physical forces, and this very growth,
the consciousness of an expanding men
tality and of a broadening horizon,
gives an added satisfaction beyond the
power of words to describe 1t is a
realization OF nobility, the divinity Of
the mind.-Success.

THE DEMOCRACY OF DEATH.

Here is a gem from a funeral ora
ton delivered a. the grave OF de-
ceased congressman, John N. Burns,
by the late Senator John J. ingalls,:
"In the democracy of death all men
are at last equal. At this fatal thresh-
old the philosopher ceases to be wise
and the songs of the poet are silent.
Dives relinquishes his millions and
Lazarus his rags. The poor man is as
rich as the richest and the rich man
as pcor as the pauper. The creditor
loses his usury and the debtor is ac-
quilted of his obligation. There the
proud man surrenders his dignities,
the politician his honors, the world
ling his pleasures, the invalid needs
no physician, and the laborer rests
frsm his unrequitted toll. Here at
least is natures final equity. The
wrongs in time are redressed, inJust-
ice is explained, the irony of Fate is
refuted, the UNEQUAL distribution ct
wealth, honor, capacity, pleasure, op-
portunity, which makes life so cruel
and ineXplicable tragedy, ceases in
the realm CT death. The strongest
have no supremacy and the weakest
need no defense The mighty cap
tain succumbs to the invjncible ad
versary who dsarms alike the victor
and the vanquished,'

EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO.

EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO.
The friends of industrial education
for the Negro will feel much satlsfac-
tion in the result Of Booker I. Wash
ingtons recent canvass OF pubic opln-
ion in the southern states with
view to finding out whether the promi-
nent white citizens of this section be-
lieve, as charged in certain radical
quarters, that negro education has
proved a failure, says the Atlanta
Constitution. The president of Tuske-
gee addressed letters to a large num-
her of representative white citizens in
various parts OF the south, without
previous knowledge of their views in
the premises, asking them seine ques-
tions directly to the point. The re-
suit CT the 1876 replies received is Civ.
en- as follows:
Has education made the negro
more useful citizen?
Answer-Yes, 121; no, 4; ananswer-
ed IL.
Has it made him more economical
and more inclined to acquire wealth?
Answer-Yes, 9S; mo, IA; unanswer
ed, "a.
olyn i'm vol
workman, especially where skill and
thought are required?
Answer-Yes, 1872; no, 2; unanswer-
ed, g
Has education improved the morals
CT the black race?
Answer-Yes, 81; no, 2; unanswer
ed 19.
Is it, as rule, the ignorant or the
educated who commit the crime?
Answar--Ignorant, 115; educated,
3; unanswered, II.
Does chime grow less as education
increases among the colored people?
Answer-Yes. 102; no, 19; unans-
werd, Is.
This is a most satisfactory exhibit
and goes to prove the contention of
the advocates Of the Tuskegee eduea-
tional system that the best thought
and conscience of the south is friend
ly tc elevating the Negro by this prac-
tical means. Washington, having prov
ed that public sentiment in the south
is behind his great work, sums up ris
case with the following strong state
ment of fact:
Not a single graduate of the Hamp-
ton Institute or the Tuskegee lnsti-
tute can be found today in any jail or
state penitentialy After making care
full inquiry. | cannot find half dozen
cases of man or woman who has
completed a full course of education
in any of our reputable institutions
like Hampton, Tuskegee, Fisk or At
lanta, who are IN prison. The records
of the south show that so per cent of
the eolored people in prison are
without knowledge of trades, and 81
per cent, are illiterate. This statement
alone disproves the assertion that the
negro grows in crime as education IN
creases. If the negro at the north is
more criminal than his brother at the
south, it is becaue the north with
holds from him the opportunity for
employment which the south gives
1t is not the educated negro who has
been guilty of or even charged with
crime in the SOUTH it is, as rule. the
one who has the mere smattering OF
education or is in fetal ignorance"
The Richmond Times-Dispatch a
representative newspaper of the Old
Dominion, adds this tetimony t. the
truth of the foregoing statement:
we have made some investigation
on our own account concerning the
graduates of the normal school at
Hampton, and, with single exception
the reports were all good. These grad.
yates who are living in Virginia are
oolng well and behaving themselves
an becoming manner. Mr.. e. c.

PEER TEACHES BOYS.
FRIEND OF KING EDWARD CON-
DUCTS PRIVATE SCHOOL.
Marquis Of Normandy, Left Poor by
His Father, Preferred Humble
Work to Contracting a Mar
riage for Wealth.
London (Eng.) Special.

AoAooH \AIH6/ opSSAoA.
TIE marquis of Normandy is a distin-
guished member of the British peerage
who has become distinguished largely by
doing what, to most noblemen of his po-
sition, would have been an impossible"
thing. For, when at his fathe~s death
IA years ago he inherited the title, with
financial balance on the wrong side
of the ledger, instead of considering the
possibilities of espousing an heiress, he
adopted the rather unusual plan of
earning the money necessary to keep
up his position, and to the great hor-
ror of some of his noble friends BIOS
somed out as a pedagogue, an occupa-
ton in which he already had had some
experience in private way.
His schoolrooms were suite of
apartments in the old Gothic castle of
Mulgrave, which he had inherited; his
pupils were the sons Of few of the
neighboring country gentlemen, and.
founded an institution which, when he
discontinued it just before his marriage
few days ago, was one of the most
successful "preps" in England for the
great schools of Elton and Harrow.
The peer-schoolmaster is also cler-
gyman. Thirty-five years ago he was
ordained in a small Yorkshire parish
and shortly afterward began to employ
his spare time for the hobby in which
he was most misunderstanding
young boys. He established his first
school while acting as chaplain in the
little town of St. Reno. Then when he
received small vicarage in Manchester
he still found time for his hobby, and a
year or so before he succeeded his ia

placed in one OF the rooms, Tiger. after
looking il carefully over and perhaps
wondering why he hadn't noticed it be-
fore, climbed up to an easy perch among
the branches and proceeded to eat the
festoons of popped corn.

bats it about with his paws, runs to tho
top of the stairs for a throw-down, and
after winning hot, hard game curls
himself up in pui,ch-bowl for snooze.
When callers come he usually takes
conspicuous station from which to look
them over. Some be will select as
friends and show them that in his esti-
nation they are all right by looking
them wide-eyed in the face. arching his
pretty back, and smoothing his sides on
their clothing. Those who do not i'm
press him favorably he let's alone.

fashioned into hundreds Of designs.
For instance, some of the houses are
surrounded by fences made entirely OF
the horns, woven together to form sort
of abattis, with the prongs upward,
forming the best kind of safeguard
against intruders, for it is impossible to
climb over the sharp points. Lawn and
porch chairs made entirely of horn are
common, and many of them have
been constructed in very fanciful
designs. Inside the houses one can
see the horn articles ranging all
the way from a tiny irkstand t.
table legs. Their peculiar sha e es-
pecially adapts them for the later pur-
pose as we'll as for chair frames. One Of
the most attractive pieces of furniture,
however, if it can be called such, is hat
rack. The accompanying photograph
shows such rack standing in a hallway
Of Livingston home. The upper prongs
are used to hold the hats and coats, while
the lower part is utilized for canes and
umbrellas Incidentally, it may be
stated that the cane resting against the
rack was also cut out of an unusually
large antler. The surface is very ar
tistically carved in number of designs
by the workmen.

Prefers Husband to Fortune.

Elizabeth Wilson Rieman, of Indian.
apolis, eloped with Herbert A. Smith, .
Baltimore lawyer, thereby risking the
loss of a large fortune lefther by an
aunt on condition that she never mar
ried without her parents consent. Her
father, who is banker, objected to
her marriage to Herbert Smith. The
banker could not be made to believe that
the young Baltimore lawyer could sup
port wife. The girl thought different
ly, and eloped with him. They were
married at Lafayette, Ind, and went to
Philadelphia on wedding journey.

obstacles to lettering the general con-
ditions of the country. 1t was becom-
ing more and more manifest that cap
ital and labor were interdependent on
each other, he declared.
Asked If he did not believe condi-
tons were improving Bishop SpaldinG
said that it did not seem so to any ex-
tent He said the riotous conditions
during the anthracite strike were not
as bad as the newspapers had made
them, although there was picketing
and always would be violence in
strikes.
II don't believe there is in America
any class of employers who deliberate
ly do their men wrong" declared Bish-
op spalding.
The bishop said he believed the
American people to be people Of good
will toward labor and the distressed.
He considered them free from anarchis-
tic ideas, and said the tendency to So
cialism was only in minor way. He
regarded a permanent tribunal Of
greater value than one created for each
case of dispute. He did not believe,
he said, in sympathetic strikes.
The strike, he replied, when asked
II he would deny labor organizations
the right to strike, was the one weapon
of labor organizations, and to deny
that right would be to deny the right
to organize, but the great object
sought, he added, is to bring about
peaceful settlements without strikes.
Labor. organizations. he said, had &C
complished much good. He had asked
Mr.. Mitchell If labor organizations
would thrive If they lost the approval
of public opinion and Mr.. Mitchell re-
piled that they would not, but would
disintegrate.
Mr.. Gompers reviewed the efforts in
congress for the enactment Of an eight
hour law and censured the arguments
by opponents of the bill before con-
eress. He resented the insinuation that
lawlessness is part of the purpose OF
Organized labor He said that Samuel
Parks had been held up by opponents
Of the bill as an example OF the labor
leaders advocating the adoption Of the
eight-hour bill or looking after the in
terests of unions. Mr.. Gompers said
there are as many honest and trust
worthy men among labor leaders as in
any other occupation.

FORM OF THE HOLY. GRAIL.
Parsifal Vessel Used in Current Fos-
tival Plays Much Different from
~. the Original.
New York Special.

New York Special.
At the present time, with the "Parsi'
fall" craze still undated, it might be OF
special interest to call attention to the
fact that the form and shape of the cup
of the grail, as seen in the Bayreuth fes-
tival plays and at the recent Metropol-
itan opera house performances, is en-
tirely different from the shape of the
original holy grail which is one of the
highest priced treasures of the cathedral
of st. Lorenzo at Genua. AS the legend
states. Joseph of Arimathea used the
original vessel to save the blood flowing
from the Saviour's wounded side. In
some way or another the sacred vessel
came into the possession Of the mosque
at Caesarea, whence it was taken by the
crusaders in the year 1902 and brought
