HAVE SLIM CHANCE
TO LAND HUSBANDS
GIRLS OF THE MIDDLE CLASS
GREATLY HANDICAPPED UN.
DER PRESENT coNoI.
TONS.
New York Press.l

There is no girl in the world SO
handicapped in the race of matrimony
as the middIe-class American girl. 1t
is all very well to pirate of liberty and
co-education, and all that sort of
thing, but the American girl who does
not have to work for her living AID
who is yet not wealthy enough to be
invited TO balls and parties and taken
to Europe has about as much liberty
and about as much chance of acquiring
good, substantial husband as a bird
in gilded cage.
Wealthy American girls are intro
duced to men socially. They go about
here and there, with. chaperons AMI
maids, and meet the American man at
home and the foreign man abroad.
They may buy themselves dukes If
the within seizes them. If they are
not popular it is because they were
not born to be so, not for lack of op-
portunity.
On the other hand, the woman who
goes into business, the girl in the
shops, the typewriter girl, the very
maid in the kitchen, is thrown among
men daily, and If she does not find
a good husband it is because she was
never meant by Providence to get
one.
But, alas for the middle-class girl!
Outside of few pink teas, where men
wouldn't attend if they were invited,
she has no particular social life. Dur
ing her boarding school days she
makes eyes at a few callow youths,
and If she has a brother she may by
chance induce him to bring home a
chum or two for the holidays. But
she is thrown with men neither in
business nor socially. She feels that
she is bit too proud or too comfort
able at home to go to work, and yet
she is not rich enough to travel or to
entertain.
1t is only by accident that she ever
meets an eligible man. Slowly but
surely she sinks into old-maidenhood
wondering vainly why Prince Charm
ing never appeared, or else she grows
tired of the monotony and breaks out
into profession or goes in for church
work, where she meets and marries
the minister.
Do you know why so many girls
who do not have to work are filling the
downtown Offices? They are doing it
to kill the ennui that blights the life
of the middle-claSs girl.

A RECONSTRUCTION
ALABAMA BALLOT
1T WAS CAST OVER THIRTY
YEARS AGO WHILE FEDERAL
TROOPS GUARDED BAL
LOT BOX.

The Andalusia, Ala, News says: ].
]. Ballard has a copy of the first bal
lot he ever cast. 1t was voted in
Greenville in 1874, during the days of
reconstruction. George S. Houston
was the democratic candidate for gov
ernor and r. F. Lyon for lieutenant
governor; for justices of the supreme
court, Thomas ]. Judge. Robert c.
Brickell and Amos r. Manning; for
attorney general, John w. A. Sanford /;
for secretary of state, Rufus K. Boyd /;
for treasurer, Daniel Crawford; for
superintendent of public instruction,
John McKelroy; for congressmen-at-
large, Burwell B. Lewis and William
H Forney; for chancellor of southern
division, HGriosco Austill; judge of
eleventh circuit, John K Henry; con-
gress second district, John A. Padgett.
Then follows the Butler county demo
cratic candidates, many of whom, if
not all have passed over the river.
Mr.. Ballard says that troops were
on hand to see that the negroes were
not interfered with, and that rope
was stretched leading to the polls.
The whites marched up one side and
the negroes the other SIDE. He says
the voters were lined up for a long
distance like people trying to get to a
theatre ticket Office and that when a
man voted ne would drop out and the
line would move up, the next man in
rotation taking a turn at the ballot
box.
Mr.. Ballard prizes his relic very
highly IL is DOssiblV the only CODY
of that election ballot in existence.

BR0WARD A SAFE PILOT

Jefferson Bell in The Florida SUM-

than that he strongly feels that he
has been sent to Tallahassee to render
certain definite services to the people.
and that he is determined to Justify
the confidence of the people reposed
in him so help him God"
Will Keep His Promises.
Prior to him nomination and cleo
ton Governor BroWard made to the
people certain promises, outlining the
executive policy which he would pur-
sue and the legislative enactments
which he would recommend. There
can De no doubt that to the limit Of
the power vested in him by law. he
WlH faithfully and fully redeem every

ernor is thoroughly in earnest in his
purpose 10 render worthy stewardship
OF the great responsibilities and i'm

indeed earnestneSs may be said to be
the mans chief Characteristic. and
this guided by his never-ouestioned
honesty, is bound to insure the conf
dence of the people and the success
OF his administration.
Welcomes Advice.
Governor Broward has caused it to
be made clear that he does not pro-
TESS TO know it all" He welcomes
advice from men in whom he has con-
fdence and often, indeed, seeks it.
Upon every proposition presented for
his action he is determined to know
what he is doing, and why he is do
ing it, and before ne acts he knows

There is no danger of Governor
Broward running amuck. Guided as
he is by the constitution and laws of
Florida, by an abundant measure of
good, hdTd common sense. and by his
singularly honest and jealous devo-
ton to the best interests of all the
people Of Florida, the excellent re-
cord which he has made during the
first and perhaps most trying mouth
of his administration, furnishes high
ly satisfactory guaranty that he will
give to the people of Florida four
years of administration of their pub
lie affairs of which they will all be
justly proud.

HE MEETS A COMMITTEE OF clTI-
zENs IN THE ISLAND TOWN
AND SHOWS THEM PLANS FOR
CONSTRUCTION OF MOST WON
DERFUL RAILWAY IN THE
WORLD.

Key West correspondence in Mi
ami Metropolis: The BiScayne, with
Hon. H. NJ. .Flagler and party aboard
arrived Wednesday. The members of
the party were, MessFs. H NJ. Flagler,
]. r. PARROT, w. H. keenan,, E j.
TRAY and son and F. s. Morse. An
important meeting was held Wednes-
day night at which Mr.. Flagler, his
party and Hon. George w. Allen, Hon.
B. D. Trevor, George L. Barthum. DR..
J. Y. Porter, VIM. r. Porter, Senator
W. Hunt Harris, Representatives
Ernest P. Roberts and Chas. Knowles
and w. D. Cash were present. Mr..
FIagler called the meeting to ascer-
tain the popular sentiment in regard
to his building the road to Key West
and il is safe TO say that he went
avav entirely satisfied with the result.
Mr. Fiagler was assured by the repre-
sentatiyes of Key West who were
present. that the people were not only
willing but anxious for the railroad TO
be built to this point, that they would
gladly offer him any Involvement TO
continue the extension TO Key West.
Mr.. Flagler showed the committee
TO this point. He also pointed ou[
seven miles of the road which would
require the expenditure of half mil
lion dollars per mile TO build. This
fact gives some idea of the magni-'
tude of the undertaking, and the i'm
mense sums which viii be required
for its accomplishment. Mr.. Flagleri
will have no trouble in securing rlpa-
RAN rights as the various owners
consented to give him full right OF
way. He also stated that he had
never before announced that the road
would be extended to Key West, but
he would then make known 10 them
the Island City would be the terminus
Mr.. F1agler and party left Tuesday
to complete the inspection OF the sur
vey.
The benefits which the railroad VIII
bring to hey West are almost lncon-
ceiEable. New citizens, and conse-
quently new ideas, new industries Win
be introduced. It will probably be-
among the finest in the system. Tour
lists, allured by the genial climate ana
