DENNIS MARSHALL

scholar and tutor to Governor Stokes,
OF New Jersey, and many other men
OF note, applied Sunday for admis

phia.
His body was bent with years and
illness and his voice tremulous with
emotion as he made his application at
detective headquarters in City Hall.
He had been walking the streets for
hours before he got mis- courage to the
sticking point.
1T is the last ditch - he said, as
the tears streamed down his face.
The detectives who heard his story led
the shabbily dressed wreck of a man
to chair.
Originally, he said, it was his in
tention to become physician, but,
after studying medicine short time,
he abandoned it to take up teaching.
He taught German, Latin and other
branches in different schools OF New
Jersey, and about five years ago he
had charge of the bookkeeping depart.
ment of the Culver School, in Mill
vile.
1t was in 1876 that Governor Stokes
was among his students in public
school at Millville. In the same class
there were many other young men,
who have since become prominent in
business and politics in New Jersey
and other states.
II we'll remember Governor Stokes, -
he said. "He was the smallest stu
dent for his age in my class. After
the Governor left the school he entered
Brown University and spent four
years there. I have seen him but sci
dom, and | have not seen him at all
since his election to the Governor
ship"
He left MillvilIe about five years
ago, and since has been writing for
publications of various kinds in this
and other cities. His health recently
prevented him from doing anything,
and he had to spend what little money

About Rheumatism.

There are few diseases that inflict
more torture than rheumatism and there
is probably no disease for which such a
varied and useless lot of remedies have
been suggested. To say that it can be
cured is, therefore. bold statement to
make, but Chamberlain Pain Balm,
which enjoys an extensive sale. has met
with great success in the treatment of
this disease. One application of Pain
Balm will relieve the pain. and hun
dreds of sufferers have testified to per-
manent cures by its use. Why suffer
when Pain Balm affords such quick re-
lief and costs but trifie? For sale by

THE SUFFRAGE AMEND
MENT.

Ill HtWS Itt-ttt III viz ME-
sENGER last week the announce
ment was made that the Court
of Appeals had unanimously
sustained the Maryland Legisla-
ture in submitting direct to the
people an Amendment to the
Constitution. to be adopted or
rejected by the qualified voters
of this state. If this Amend
ment is adopted it assures white
supremacy in Maryland.
Next year we have a general
registration and the Amend
ment provides that every male
person of this State who is
twenty-one years of age shall
be entitled to register, if such
person was entitled to vote on
the first day of January, 1869.
or provided he is descend
ant of a person who was en-
titled to vote in 1869 in any
State of the United States. Thus
it will be seen that the old
white men of Worcester Coun-
ty whether literate or illiterate
can vote, for the simple reason
that they were free American
citizens in 1869, and had the
right to vote and THEIR DE-
sCENDANTs ALSO are thereby
qualified to vote under the pro-
posed Amendment.
If the person who desires
registration was either NOT en-
titled to vote in 1869 or is NOT
the descendant of a person who
was entitled to vote, in order to
be registered such a person
must be able to read any Sec
ton of the State Constitution
presented to him by the officers
of registration, and to give a
reasonable explanation of such
sections; or, if unable to read
it, he must be able to under
stand it when read to him and
give reasonable explanation.
Most of the negroes will have
to meet the requirements of
this provision because the ne
groes were not given the right
to vote till 1869.
Every white man in Worces-
ter County, except some foreign
born citizen who cannot read,
and who cannot give a reason
able explanation of what is read
to him, will be entitled to regis
tration. Every white man in
Worcester County is entitled to
registration and to vote, wheth-
er he can read or not, unless he
has been convicted of some in
famous crime.
If the Amendment is adopted
it will surely disfranchise thou
sands of negroes in this State,
but it will not disfranchise for
any reason any white American
citizen.
Mr.. Vandiver, chairman of
the Democratic State Central
Committee, has published in
pamphlet form and in several
of the daily papers an exhaust
i've explanation of this Amend
ment to the Constitution, but
for lack of space we cannot
publish his paper, yet we have
presented above the points our
people should be acquainted
with, stated in plain English
and all unnecessary verbiage
dispensed with.
This Amendment was passed
in avowed redemption of the
letter and the spirit of the plat
form upon which our Democrat
ic Senate and House of Dele
gates, as well as Governor,
Comptroller and attorney Gen
eral, were elected.
1t is designed to give to the

LILIES OF KEsLIR IND BEAUTY.

In a recent interview with Mrs. Lily

"The fact that / believe in the superior

successful life is good health; that the key

health.
"A sick woman cannot be a beautiful

One great secret of youth and beauty for
the young woman or the mother IS the
proper understanding of her wof:l"lly sys-

Of courtesy in the factory is given by
the London Engineering Magazine "At
one time" says the writer, 1--WE had
some large forging drawings returned
to the works, and the order clerk, into
whose hands they came, told his er-

one of the foremen. The boy looked in
establishment, but upon a peremptory
order he went off with the drawings.
We missed them day or two later,
and upon inquiring of the boy he said,
You told me to take them to burn 'em,

those drawings to the boiler room and
had them burned, all because the order

GREAT SUN SPOTS.
The Furious Solar Tempests That
Mark Their Appearance.

The Furious Solar Tempests That
Mark Their Appearance.
Back i'll 1913, when the AIillerites
We're looking for the end of the world,
there was a great sun spot that to
many seemed to lend weight to the
Millerites' arguments from the time
prophecies in the Bible. For a week
in that year there was sun spot that
was visible to the naked eye. 1t meas
ured 74,S1G miles across. On the day
of the eclipse in 1858 a spot 100000
miles in extent was clearly seen. These
spots are considered to be storms in
the glowing gases that correspond to
the atmosphere of this earth. If there
were ships on the sun as large as this
earth they would be tossed about like
autumn leaves in an ocean storm.
These solar spots are most abundant
on the two sides of the suns equator,
where they mark something akin TO
terrestrial cyclone belt. The center of
a cyclone is rarefed and therefore
colder. Cold on the sun is darkness.
All astronomer says that these cyclones
carry down into the depths of the
solar mass the cooler materials of the
upper layers, formed principally of by
drogen, and thus produce in their cen
ter n decided extinction Of light and
heat as long as the gyratory movement
lasts. Finally the hydrogen, set free
at the base of the whirlpool becomes re-
heated at this great depth and rises up
unanimously, forming irregular jets,
which appear above the chromosphere.
Sun spots often break out or disap-
pear under the eye of the observer.
They divide like a piece of ice dropped
on the surface of a frozen pond, the
pieces sliding off in every direction, or
they combine like separate foes driven
together into 4 pack. Sometimes
spot will last for more than 200 days,
through six or eight revolutions of the
sun Sometimes a spot will last only
half an hour.
"The velocities indicated by these
movements writes Henry White
Warren, ID. D., "are incredible. An up
rush or downrush at the sides has been
measured of twenty miles a second, Il
siderush or whirl of 120 miles a second.
These tempests are over regions so
wide that our own Indian ocean is too
small to be used for comparison. As
they cease the advancing sides of the
spots approach each other at the rate
of 10000 miles an hour. They strike
together, and the rising spray leaps
thousands of miles into space.'-Chi-
cago News.
