Missed Her own Party.

Senator Joe Blackburn tells story
of a quaint old woman in a remote
Kentucky village who was locally
famed for her kindness of heart and
good will toward her neighbors. says
the Youths Companion.
Far months and months she had
been saving her slender means to give
great party. so she said" the senator
relates, land at last came the great
event. All of her friends, dressed in
their best, were on hand to render the
occasion notable in the annals of the
village and all voted the party a great
success, the only false note in the
gamut of their enjoyment being the
mysterious absence of their hostess.
Meeting her the next morning one
of the guests of the night before spoke
rapturously of the party.

THE DEMOCRATIC GAINS IN MAINE

The complete returns of the Maine
election show the Republican plurality
to be 27,130. This result is regarded by
the Democratic leaders as very de-
cided Democratic victory.
On the eve of the election they said
they would consider their party vic
torious If it cut down the Republican
plurality of 1900 one vote. The Repu'b-
lican plurality that year was 1884
Therefore the Democrats cut 1t down
more than 5000. Their victory there
fore was a pretty big one.
There is no doubt that the result in
Maine is having a beneficial effect on
Democrats in the doubtful states.
What apathy there was in the Demo-
cratic ranks is rapidly disappearing,
and the indications now are that from
this time until election day the cam
paign will be conducted with great
vigor.
The Democratic leaders are confident
their party can win the election il no
mistakes are made and no efforts are
spared to get out full vote. The
utmost care will be taken to make no
mistakes and no means will be left
untried to get Democrats to the polls
in the localities in which all Demo-
cratic votes are needed.
One indication that the campaign is
to be conducted with greater viger is
the visit of Judge Parker to New York
city. While the purpose of his visit has
not been disclosed, 1t is safe to say
that it is to have a better understand
ing with the managers of the cam
paign and to aid them, as far as pos
sible, with his advice. He is not dis
satisfied with what has been done by
them thus far, and he has no inten-
ton to interfere with them. The story
that he intends TO take the control of
the campaign into his own hands has
no foundation whatever.
So far from wanting to direct. the
campaign he is showing a willingness
to be directed by its managers. 1t has
been suggested that he take the
stump in his own behalf. Perhaps the
advisability of his taking such an inn
portant step is being discussed by the
campaign managers. and it may be
one reason for his visit to New York
city is to confer with the campaign
committee as to how many speeches
he shall deliver and as to where they
shall be delivered should it be decided
that he ought to go on the stump.
That he would make a good impress
sion as a campaign orator there is no
doubt, because he Is q. very fine look
ing man. but, not being an orator, it
is a question whether he would con-
tribute much to his cause. All these
things doubtless will be taken into
consideration in reaching a decision.

BEFORE DAY CLUBS.

Judging from the dispatches rela-
| tive ITO what is called Before Day
clubs. which have appeared in the
public prints. there seems to be pretty
| good reasons for thinking there is no
such organization. 1t is true that in
| one dispatch, from a town in this
state, there were statements which
seemed to show pretty conclusive1y
that a club Of that sort existed in that
neighborhood, and a dispatch from
Florida contained what appeared to
be pretty good evidence that there was
a club in Leon county, but it is prob
able that statements made by negroes
have been tortured out of their true
meaning, and that rumors started by
thoughtless persons are responsible
for most of the talk about these clubs.
No doubt a good many people of
Tallahassee, Fla, were sincere in their
| belief that there was a Before Day
club in their county, but it seems they
have come to the conclusion that they
were mistaken.
There has not been satisfactory evil
dence yet that there is such an organ
ization anywhere as Before Day
club. and until there is it would be
well for citizens to assume there are
no clubs of that kind.
1t is noticeable fact that nothing
appeared in the public prints about
such club until after the Statesbero
tragedy. During the investigation of
that tragedy something was said
about Before Day clubs. Almost
Immediately rumors of the presence
of similar clubs in other localities be-
gun to appear in the newspapers. In
most cases these rumors seemed to be
without any support whatever, and,
hence, were hardly worth considering.
1t is probable that If any investigation
of other rumors had been made by COM
petent authority it would have appear
ed that they were based on a misun-
Outstanding or false information.
Anyway. it has not yet been shown
satisfactorily that there is any such
institution in any part Of the South as
a. Before Day club. There are clubs
of negroes for various purposes in this
and other Southern states, but they
are harmless institutions. 1t would
be an easy matter, however, to pick up
statements relative to these clubs
which. skilfully patched together,
would make it appear they were form
ed for the commission of crimes of one
kind and another.
II would be well to wait for evil
dence before assuming that in any part
of the South negroes are organizing
FOR the purpose Of committing deeds
that won't bear the light Of day. The
matter is too serious to be dealt with
except in the most careful manner.
1t is a mistake to state negroes are
forming clubs for the commission Of
crime unless there is ample evidence
that such is the case, because such
statements alarm people in the rural
districts and give a bad impression OF
/ the state. And statements relative 10
such matters are, as rule. greatly
exaggerated. IN most communities
there are always a few who take
pleasure in circulating rumors that are
calculated 10 alarm people. II there
were such clubs in this state as the
Before Day club r. reported 10 be,
the fact would, In all probability. have
been known 20 tho authorities long
ago.

affirm that If she continues to use her
old name it will injure the Protestant

NAT GOODWIN GETS A NOTICE
From the New York Times.

IOIl Tic NEW 1OTk Times.
Nat c. Goodwin. the actor, is said to
have engaged in a game of cutting
cards on the steamship Kronprinz Will
helm of the North German Lloyd Line
during the voyage. which ended yester-
day at this port, with the result that
he swelled the purses of two other men
aboard, one of whom is recognized as
professional gambler, to the amount
of $780, Mr.. Goodwin would say
nothing of his losses, but other pas
sengers, who said that they had watch
ed the card-cutting game, reported his
loss.
According to these folks, the actor
thought he would stand no chance in
poker game, knowing that there were
several professional players aboard.
He would not sit In the game, and
when the gamblers noticed this they
proposed other means of getting
money.
Finally the card-cutting game was
suggested at SIS cut. Goodwin and
the other two sat in. At first, it is
said, the actor lost without showing
any feeling. Finally. however, when
he was out a considerable amount he
became angry and demanded that the
amount be raised. The gamblers con-
sented to the raise, and at length 800
was the wager on each cut.

day. When he had lost all the ready
money he had he rose from his seat,

A SLEEPING CAR INcIDENT.
From the New York Tribune


Charles o. Haight some months ago
purchased a ticket at Boston emitting
him to the sardine box accommodations
Of a Pullman sleeping car to Water
town. When near Utica, according to
the Cleveland Leader, he sat up in his
berth with his legs protruding a short
distance into the aisle. The porter, in
answer to a bell from further down the
car, ran against the protruding legs.
and in the mix-up that followed one Of
them was broken. Now Mr. Haisht
asks that the court give him Judgment
against the Pullman company for s35,-
600, alleging in addition to his broken
bones further complications includ-
ing the impairment of the five senses.
paralysis of the organs of speech, shat
tering of the nervous system and the
ensuing inability to do any work.
The question is an interesting one.
If man has not the right to stick
his legs out into the aisle in a sleeping
car when he wants to don his trousers
how is he going to get them on?

Women are voters in Colorado. 1t is
said that Chairman Cortelyou's COM
mittee hopes to capture the woman
vote of Colorado for Roosevelt on
corset lines. The committee is max
ing the claim that the Republican pol
icy of protection has given American
women the most perfectly fitting cor
sets in the world and therefore the
handsomest figures. It is predicted
that the corset issue will make a
great hit among the Mormons. Mean
while DR.. Degrave, a French special
list, declares that the straight front
corset, in the manufacture and sale
of which this country has taken the
lead, is unhealthy and injurious
Women wearing that style. he says,
sooner or later fall victims to dyspep-
STA, sleeplessness, anaemia and other
troubles, and that nobody who suffers
from these ills can retain pretty face.
He is sure that the modern styles of
corsets are responsible for waning
of the beauty of womanhood. Logically,
therefore, if the Republican policy of
protection is responsible for the cor
sets, it is also responsible for the dys-
pepsia, sleeplessness and loss of beau
ty to which the French expert calls
attention.
