At the meeting Of the stockholders
Of the Intereity Athletic association,
the sponsors for the Barre Montpelier
base BAH team, to be held this evening,
it win probably be decided whether
or not the two cities will support a
league team next summer. And umdoubt-
eddy II the financial showing Of the
past year proves not too discouraging,
the stockholders will see their way clear
to have team the coming season. liz
case decision is made to venture again
it should be borne in mind that the
extravaganza Of last summer would not
be warranted. We mean by that the
extravaganza Of last summer will not
excessive premiums in salaries. If we
judge the feeling in the other cities
there Is d disposition to place the league
on a less costly basis Not one Of the
representatives in the league came out
so well, we believe, as the Barre Mont
pelier combination, the debts ranging

thousands, as in Burlington's case.
Those cities have had enough Of reclS-
less throwing away of money, and when
the annual meeting of the league comes
there win be disposition to limit the
expenditures by general agreement. This
can be brought about by placing a limit
on the salaries. This year there win
be no need Of great outlay on the
grounds, as they were put in good
shape last season. There remains then
the cutting down Of the salaries 50
that the teams may be placed on
paying basis. 1t is certain that with
the business experience gained last sum
mer, the Barre Montpelier team can be
made paying proposition, as it started
out to be last summer. If league is
formed this season, Barre and Mont
pelier ought to be represented.

MEANS ADDED WEALTH TO THE
STATE.

The Vermont Forestry association
gives out the information that the wood
lands Of Vermont are producing some
thing like Slo,ooo,0oo per year. That
will be surprising news to most PEG
pie, although it has been known that
the wood and numbering business is Of
vast proportions; yet there is no rea-
son to doubt the statement Of the com
mission which has the opportunity to
investigate and determine with more
accuracy than the individual. When one
considers the wealth being taken out
by this way, that vast amount Of
timber land is being cut over each
year, and he realizes, too, the neces-
sity that such work be guided by the
hand Of intelligence, lest the source Of
All this revenue be cut off, In other
words, the denuding Of our Vermont
hills ought to be done under fixed
programme. Some of it is done under
fxed programme and intelligently.
The rest Of it Is done the best the cut.
tiers know how, with view to present
advantage alone. From the work Of the
former class there is no need to fear
that the state win be stripped Of forest
land. From the latter class the state
must be spared if It hopes to retain
large part Of its value and its beauty.

ORPHANS DAY AT THE CIRCUS.

least, last child was left behind.
They arrived 5000 strong. Harry Went
worth, the clown, did the honors and ruined
a pair of white gloves in an effort to shake
hands with all the children. Every one in
the show was on his, or her mettle, deter
mined that the kids should have day
to remember the remainder of their lives.
They had it.
The children began to arrive at noon.
They filed trains on the subway, swamped
surface cars and made the neighborhood
of the Garden look as If a big school was
celebrating the coming of spring Several
institutions brought their bands and pa

ASKS FOR INVESTIGATION.
italian Ambassador Officially Calls
Attention to Death of Leanto.

Baron Mayor des Planches, the Italian
ambassador, has brought formally to the
attention of the State Department the
death last Thursday, near Lorton, Va, of
Joseph Leanto, an italian laborer, who
himself had MORALLY wounded George NAL
colin, a deputy sheriff, in resisting arrest.
1t was at first claimed that Leanto had
defied the authorities and terrorized the
community, and had then committed sui
eide to avoid arrest.
The ambassador went last Sunday to
Alexandria to confer with the police au-
thorities there and then dispatched one of
his secretaries to the scene of the tragedy
to make an investigation. Now the ambas-
sador represents to the State Department
that from the character of the wounds
found on Leanto's body, one in particular
being in the hand, there seems good rea-
son to doubt the theory of suicide, and
that it is an open question whether the
Italian was not killed by mob
Following the usual practice the State
Department has communicated the ambas-
sodars note on the subject to the governor
of Virginia with a request for an investi-
CATION and statement of facts. 1t will
then be determined whether the case is one
calling for the payment of an indemnity.

date stampede for the exits.
A houseful of people were watching a
Yiddsh play and for a couple of minutes it
looked like a serious panic. The curtain
was rung down and the orchestra began
playing. The ushers and employees of the
theater, together with two officers from the
Elizabeth street police station, fought with
the crowd rushing out and soon succeeded
in quieting them.

Bishop Charles B. Galloway of the Metho-

cal condition of the colored population In
Mississippi is improving somewhat, but
very little. He thinks that about thirty

JACKSON, MISS, April 3, 1905.
While it is a delicate question to dis
cuss, and one that is impossible to deter
mine, several people who have lived on
both sides of Mason and Dixons line have
asserted to me since l have been in the
south that the standard of official integrity
and private morality down here is much
higher than in the northern states, particu-
larry in the cities of the north. 1t is con-
tended that the southern people, as rule,
are more regular in church attendance and
in the performance of other religious du-
ties; that they are more free from social
scandals, and that divorce is very rare
everywhere throughout the south, and in
many localities almost unknown. A Pres
byterian clergyman who has preached both
in the north and in the south says that
the private lives of city people down here,
as rule, are purer; that they are more
critical of the behavior of their neighbors,
and that greater disgrace attaches to social

sins and delinquencies than in northern
cities. The women of the SOUTH a rule
have larger families than in the north and
there is less complaint and criticism of
mothers who neglect their families for So
cial excitement than is heard up north.
Little Crime Among the Whites.
There is very little crime among the
white population, a fact which is attributed
to temperance legislation. A great deal of
whisky is drank in the homes of the white
people, but seldom to excess. AS a rule
every southern man takes his toddy, either
at his club, in his own dining room, or with
his friends; but at the same time he is
prohbitionist so far as the sale of liquor
is concerned, because he realizes that
drinking demoraliZes the negroes and the
poor white class and is the chief cause
of crime. Hence there are compare lively
few saloons, as l have told you in previous
letters.
The moral condition of the colored people
is deplorable, and 1 have been told by
everybody that crime, vice and immortality
are spreading among them even on the
plantations. While sociologists attribute
the largest measure of the crime and vice
to the idle and vicious elements that drift
into the towns, those who are familiar
with plantation conditions and village life
assert that there is very little difference
so far as the morality of the women and
the colored preachers is concerned. In
every city and town in the south there is
a large negro population without regular
occupation who live by their wits; who de-
pend upon odd jobs or do not work at all,
or who rely for their living upon the serv-
ants of white households, or upon different
grades of theft from pilfering to highway

1.-THE education of the negro is not only
duty but necessity. 1t Is an economical
