ging the ditch. I want congress to have all the facts before it when we take up the question of issuing canal bends, which will have to be considered this winter. I do not know how good are the chances of getting such a reso- iution through congress. It is possible that some Republicans will want all the information relating to the digging of the canal, and with the help of these We may be able to secure an investiga- tion. But it was demonstrated last session, when the Republicans fought every effort made by the Democrats to bring about an investigation of the wholesale charges of fraud in the Post office department, that they are oppos- ed to every effort to bare corruption"
 So there are merry times ahead. Next to being triumphant Republican is. we suppose, being a nagging Democrat.

 Ii is in the residence districts where he is to be seen and heard in all the glory that clothed him years ago. White apron reaching to his shoetops, some times white jacket, straw hat tilted back and beaming smile on his face, he strides along three-fOot strides, and his fiat basket. with its cover of clean white oilcloth, is on his arm. In and out of the streets he winds and his cry goes before him.
 One of them, who sells in the north western section and is as black as coal, gets out cry something like: ''Erao man! Crab man! LOok-loOk-look- lock look! bul-debbul-debbuI! era-a-a-bby! Had fry an a-debbul!" The words fall clear over each other in a bewildering procession, but the darky crab man never gets his tongue twist ed.
 Others have variations. hut everyone conveys forcibly the fact that deviled crabs, fried hard crabs and crab cakes are for sale. It is wonderful what a negro can do with the single word crab" He can combine it in many different forms to make a crab mans cry and each combination will make some melody.
 The crab man appears on the street the first really warm day of May, when the water becomes warm and the crabs may be caught. Then till frost chills

They say such things nowadays that Ia gentle nearer Or reader is apt to be shscked. For instance, Professor Will liam J. Armbruster, who was on the programme to address a gathering of St. Louis women on questions relating to chemistry, startled his. audience by 'remarking: "The desire of women of the monied classes seems to be to get as much money as possible and then go to hell as fast as they can with it.
 This is a decidedly careless state ment. We do not suppose that there is a woman in the world who really wants to go to hell. Hell is an uncomfortable place. It is a very warm place, and mo woman likes to be uncomfortably warm. It is also a place of bad odors, which women do not like. It is also a smoky place, and women don't even like Pittsburg. No, Brother Armbrus- ter, women do not want to go to hell. They only want a good time. Some of them may even want what is called "a hell of a time," but they don't want he'll It does beat all how professors and other learned men can misunder- lstand women.

patton left many negroes without home they tried to find employment. The Chesapeake bays fairly teemed With crabs and large numbers of the treed as heayen-sent cook. and those or ms race who chose to compound the crust acean's delicate Ileat with the requl- site seasonings found a large sale for them. Then hard crabs were fried ana sold and later crab cakes were made.
 With the exception of Norfolk, Bal tinore is the only city in the world where the crab man has tlCurished. and fer the last 40 or 45 years he has been regarded as a fixed institution.
 The crab man always wears cheer full cOuntenance, and he can sometimes even yet be seen, basket on one arm hand up to his mouth, with a long white apron, striding along the streets with gathering of children following him, each trembling with anticipation of the darkey's long wall.
 But that is all being changed. The crab man picks out busy corner and sets his basket down and waits for the customer to come to him. He still sells the three varieties of crab cookery, and if he does call out his wares it is sel- dom more than brief Grab! crab!'
 The decline of the deviled-crab man is due it is said to the high price of crabs. Each year, says a crab dealer, a white man who supplies numerous darkies, the price is higher, while that of single deYiled crab sold by darky must almost remain the same-5 cents. That was the price established years ago, and as long as a negro sells crabs it must remain that or no one will buy
 Another reason is found in the more attractive dealers. These people are enabled to put their crabs up in tissue paper.' with their name as an attrac- ticn. The saloons, a great number of which used to handle the real, oid- time crab mans product, have mostly forsaken him and patronize the larger dealers.
 Still another reason is that the crab man has been accused of using poor crab meat. One negro, who has built up comfortable business, said yes terday that the men who Used bad meat and mixed good meat with fish were much in tEe minority, for the Inan who practices crooked ways of selling crabs is in danger of being reported to the police by his rivals.
 Knowing all this. the men with the baskets finally decided not to stand up against such odds, and some of them went to' work Lugging a basket heavily laden with crabs around in the hot sun all day is not considered work if one is in business for himself. Work" to him, is drawing wages from another man or handling a bod or a shovel.

 Cherry, melodious as the sirens song and as insinuatingly seductive as the tinl1le of ice in the julep glass, this cry has rung for years through the streets of Baltimore in summer.
 How long 1t will steal musically on the car from the distance growing lou der and louder and finally sounding close at hand in glad refrain, is ques- tion, for one of the time-honored insti- tutions which have distinguished Bal timore among cities is fast passing away. It is the vocation of the crab man, and the long -drawn-out, wierd cry of the darkey with his basket of deviled crabs is not heard so frequent ly now.
 With him, in tine will pass the man with white apron, oyster can and me- lodious yodel. In this day of the cen- tralization of business interests the small dealer has no place. That is why the crab man, unable to cope with the large packing houses, will be among the memories of the past.
 The honorable occupation of selling crabs-it may be called in one sense a profession, for the crab vendor has to combine diplomacy, a certain element of comedy and good voice-has been in vogue in Baltimore ever since the Civil War. When the Act of Emanci-

SOME VIEWING WITH ALARM,

Of course the Democrats in congress have got to view with alarm the doings of the Republicans. If they didn't they wouldn't be worthy of their jobs. They are preparing for formal investiga- tion of the work of the Panama Canal Commission with particular regard to the alleged extravagant expenditures and awarding of illegal contracts. Rep resentative James Hay of Virginia, the leading minority member of the mili- tary committee of the house, proposes to start an inquiry on the opening day of the coming session. MT: Hay has been studying the canal situation lit- tie on his own hook. By the time con- gress meets he hopes to have consider able information at hand on the sub- ject.
 I am not charging that anybody is guilty of malfeasance in connection with Panama affairs, said MT. Hay, but the fact remains that a great deal of money has been expended down there, and that little or no progress has been made in the actual work of dig

INDIFFERENT AND SUsPICIo US


 A correspondent of London paper who was present when the English fleet. under the command of Sir Arthur Wilson, visited swinemunde the other day was much impressed by the indif- ferent attitude assumed by the inhabi tants, He says that when Admiral Wilson went on shore to visit the gov ernor and commandant h7 was received by the crowd about the landing place and wharf in absolute silence. There was no demonstration of any kind. Not a rnurmur of interest was heard, not hand was raised to hat or cap in salute, unless it belonged to a policeman or other official. So it was when the Brit ish officers drove through the streets. There was no sound of applause and no marks of respect or interest. The peo- pie looked on coldly and stolidly. As for signs of popular rejoicing, there was none at all. There was no decora- tion, no display of bunting. The Ger man flag was sparingly hoisted at the public buildings. The Union Jack and the White Ensign were invisible even on the excursion steamers, which were plentiful, and crowded with spectators, who had come from considerable dis tances. There can be little doubt, in the writer's opinion, that the visit of the warships was regarded by the gen. eral public, not as a friendly chance visit, but as an insolent Haunting of naval strength, especially significant after the fraternization of the French and English fleets at Portsmouth.
 We'll, why not? The people can some times see and think, and occasionally they see and think just what it is not desired by those higher up that they should see and think.

sIOW, BUT APPARENTLY SURE.

Some have thought that Mayor Weaver of Philadelphia was slow in wholly repudiating the Republican or ganization in that city, but he seems to have arrived at last. Now he has an-
 nounced that he is going to use the in- f1uence of his administration to defeat the ringsters this fall. 'T was a disciple and advocate of reform within the party" he said, "but after two years of unremitting effort, what did I find? A deliberate attempt to steal your gas works. Do you wonder that I gave up the idea?'' It was from knowledge gained as an insider that the mayor went on to say that the gas steal was but the first of four moves to loot the city. Number two of the gangs pro- gramme was to exhaust the city's bor- rowing power by the practical waste of the money obtained from the sale of the gas works. Number three was to raise the city's tax rate from S1.50 to s2.oO or S2.25; and the final step was to steal the city's water works. The gas steal was exposed and prevented. T
 supposed then" said MT. Weaver, that the rest of the programme had fallen
 through" But the organization misin- terpreted the recent quiet of the city, and the mayor detected movement to force through part at least of its old plans. .-r

The latest suggestion of Consul An- derson at Annoy, is that we Ameri- cans ought to be making the acquaint- ance of the pomelo, or Chinese bread fruit. Foreigners agree that all things considered, the pomelo is the finest fruit in the Far East" he writes. Tn my opinion it is one of the finest fruits grown, and would be very glad to see 1t produced commercially in the United States. It combines the good points of the orange with the good points of the grape fruit. It is more easily handled than the orange, and has not the peculiar bitter quality of the grape fruit. In general description it may poptlarly be known as a cross between the orange and the grape fruit. Apparently it has been cultivat- ed here in China for at least two thou sand years. I believe that with modern horticulture and modern methods of caring for and shipping the fruit the pomelo would become one of the most popular fruits in the United States"
