VALUE OF HELPING OUR
SELVES.

In the September Arena DR.. Agnes
Valentine Kelly makes an appeal to
Northern friends to contribute to
the cause of education among the
poorer classes of the South, and says
comparatively few people in the
North know of the comparative
help!essness of many of the Southern
states as a result of the Civil war.
DIR. Kelly adds: "The people OF
many of these commonwealths,
notably Alabama, Louisiana and
Mississippi, are poor, The states
are poor. The governments are not
in a condition as yet to furnish pop
ular education for their people, es-
pecially in the rural and outlying
districts. I think it is safe to say
that no people in the confines of our
republic are more eager or anxious
for education today than the white
citizens of the rural districts of Louis
lana, Alabama and adjoining states;
and L as fully believe that it
is equally true that when the problem
of popular education IN these rural
districts is solved we shall have gone
long way toward solving the race
question. These states are potential
ly rich, but they are paralyzed, and
until they are in position to give
good school facilities to Industrious,
enterprising, home-building people
the tide of new life that should be
pouring into their borders will pass
to other comm )n Eealths.
It will doubtless be many years
yet before a good many people in
the North and East fully realize that
while the South wa- once poor, as
the result primarily of the wide
spread deso.atlon wrought by the
Civil war and the period of recon-
struc;ion, the South is to-day rich
and growing richer.
OF the total exports of the country
last year Al per cent came from the
South. The total value of the South's
exports last year re ached the enor-
nous amount Of $615, ,98O,911.
With its immense agricultural
interests, its unlimited minerals, its
great forests, its factories, mines,
shippings and varied Industries, the
5 nth today is one of the richest
regions in the world.
The South has fully recovered
from the Civil " ar, and the South's
development is chapter in the in
dustrial field that commands the
admiration of the civilized globe.
Alabama and Mississippi, states
which DR.. Kelly specifies as COM
paratively helpless in poverty, are
rich statel, anu making more in
dustrial progress than any states of
the North or West.
It has come to be habit among
many misinformed people Of the
North to speak of the South as
ground down in poverty. The South
is amply able to educate its own
children. All that is needed is to
arouse public sentiment in the South
to the value of education as q factor
in the creation of high citizenship.
This1thing of depending on Others
to do for us what we can do ourselves
is not only unwise but harmful as
we'll.
The whole ONE influence Of sci!
reliance must not be under estimated
The value of local pride, of the
consciousness of having perforn1ee
our duty must be kept in mind.
| The interest which self-hell
stimulates in a great cause shou't
not be lost sight of.
This lesson is rapidly being learnet
by the Southern people.

damaged by an electric car, and a
suit was instituted against the
railway company for damages.
The case was tried and it was that
the automobile was to blame.
Acting upon various information.
the mayor formulated an indict-
ment, that the kings automobile
habitually disregarded and violat-
ed the speed regulations, did not
carry the distinguishing tablet
required by law, and never paid
the automobile tax.
It is stated that the government
is indignant because of the
mayors action and has limited

is his duty to eforce the law, to

Some Swallowing Done.

Did Jouah swallow the whale or
did the whale swallow Jonah?
Once upon time, it is said, this
question was put to a small boy
in Sunday school, and the answer
was that while he could not dis
tinctly remember which swal-
lowed the other he was positively
sure that between the two there
was some huge swallowing done.
If any one can tell us which
really did the swallowing in this
case, maybe he can also tell us
whether the Democratic party in
North Carolina has swallowed the
Prohib1tionists or the Prohibition
party the Democrats. Like the
Sunday school boy, we are posi-
lively certain that between the
two some magnificent swallowing
has been done.-Waxhaw Enter

Caretakers at Mount Washing

When freezing weather came
they we're 'rounded up" IN homes.
AS soon as the caretakers were
gone they escaped and returned to
the water. All efforts to recon-
cile them to dwelling indoors have
since failed. Except in the Sc
verest weather they kept the water
open by swimming about and dis
turbing the surface, day and
night. When the mercury sank
below zero they were no longer
able to prevent their playground
from freezing, and to avoid be-
coming fast were compelled to
scramble for the ice during the
night, and opening about twenty
feet in diameter being broken out
for them each day.
Both geese and swans protect
themselves from the cold by bury
ing their feet in their features
and hiding their heads under <Sheir

lie on the ice apparently lifeless
throughout the night, but are
none the worse for the exposure
when morning dawns, clamoring
for their breakfast Of corn and
stale bread.-Kansas City Times.

No Ovation to StoesseI.

St. Petersburg. March L.
Lieutenant General Stossel ar
rived in St. Petersburg this morn
ing from Moscow. When the
train steamed into the depot
many hundreds of people. espec-
tally women, crowded on the
platform. War Minister Sakha-
rolf and Admiral Zilotti, on be-
half of the admiralty, welcomed
General Stossel, who was loudly
choered and presented with flow
ers. After receiving the personal
congratulations of friends, the
general looking bronzed and in
good health, traversed the cheer
ing crowd to a reception room,
stopping now and then to shake
hands with admirers Behind the
general came Nine. Stoessel, lean
ing on the arm of military Off
Ger. She looked to be even more
bronzed than her husband, and
smiled happily at the warm well
come accorded him. It was re-
marked that the generals hair
had turned quite white.
The absence of military and
naval officers from the platform
was very noticeable. Altogether,
the generals welcome was by nc
means in the nature of a popu.
lar demonstration, and lacked
genuine enthusiasm.

Waiting for a Chance.

1t is q dangerous thing to wait
for opportunities until it becomes
habit. Energy and inclination
for hard work ooze out in the
waiting. Opportunity becomes in
visible to those who are doing
nothing, or looking somewhere else
for it. It is the great worker, the
man who IS alert for chances that
see them.
Some people become SO oppor
tunity-blind that they cannot see
chances anywhere-they would
pass through gold mine without
noticing anything precious-while
Others will find opportunities in
the most barren and out of the
way places. Bunyan found op-
portunity in Bedford jail to write
the greatest allegory in the world
on the untwisted paper that had
been used to cork bis bottles Of
milk. A Theodore Parker or a
Lucy Stone sees an opportunity
to go to college in a chance to
pick berries. One boy sssees an
opening to his ambition in a
chance to chop wood, wait on
table, or run errands, where an
other sees no chance at all. One
sees an opportunity to get an edu-
cation in the odds and ends of
time, evenings and half holidays,
which another throws away.-O.

WRONG BROTHER HANGED.
Ado|ph Black 'Confesses i'm a Frenzy Of
Remorse and Says He Desires no Mercy,

Washington, Pa, March o.
my sGod, that's my ,,sbrother!
He never killed that woman. I am
the murderer. [ should have
been hanged instead of Eugene"
cried Adolph J. Bloch today in a
frenzy of remorse, 1nterrupting a
companion at the steel mills in
Cannodsburg, who was reading TO
him an account of the hanging of
Eugene Bloch at Allentown Oh
Tuesday, He is in the Washing
ton county jail tonight, awaiting
a hearing on the charge. to which
he has confessed, and for which
his brother has been executed.
His brother was hanged for the
alleged murder of Mrs. Kate
Falzinger. AdolphlBloch declared
to the authorities to-day, after
the item hadsbeen read to him,
that he himself killed Mrs. Fal-
Finger, and that the'brother, who
had been hanged, was guiltless.
Bloch is a mill worker, reads
newspapers but little, and says he
knew nothing of the trial, convic-
tion and execution until today.
The murder of Mrs. Falzinger
was brutal one Her throat was
cut and her dead body was found
a few hours after the crime.
Eugene Bloch was arrested. He
claimed that Mrs. Falzinger had
been attacked by stranger, and
that he was trying to defend the
woman when she was killed.
Adolph Bloch says his brother
knew him to be guilty and suffer-
ed death rather than betray him.
When brought to the jail here to-.
night, Bloch was in state of col
lapse. He gave out a statement
in which he acknowledged his
guilt, and expressed the hope that
no mercy would be shown him for
the terrible crime he committed.
The Allentown officials. who were
communicated with this evening,
said it was impossible that an ip-
nocent man should haye been
hanged for the Falzinger MUIR
der.
Late tonight Bloch recovered
his nerve to some degree, and de-
clared to the jail officials that the
whole story was a joke. Later,
however, he repudiated this and
reiterated his guilt.
