A MOTHERS LOVE

When boy is far away from home,
What pleases him the most?
Why, it's when a letter comes to him
From mother thro' the post.
No matter if the silver hairs
Appear upon his head,
Hes still his mothers boy as when
Ills nalr was carrot red!
LIMO thirty years have set their marks
And scared his careworn face,
An mothers eyes he's yet a lad
Without Times telltale tracel
Her letter thus begins: Dear boy;
1t sets his heart athrill
10 think that mother knows him as
little shaver still
"A mothers love is as a charm
The sesame of youth,
one feels that age has naught to do
With Love or Life or Truth.
Whene'er he gets letter from
His mother far away,
w no sees naught but the guileless child,
Behind the man grown gray.

HocH HAD MANY WIVES.
Chicago's Much-Married Man, How.
ever, Denies He Murdered Women.

That the creator of the traditional
Bluebeard did not overestimate the de-
moniac qualities which may be developed
in human being was demonstrated a
few years ago, when the crimes of
Holmes, the mulh-murderer. were dis
covered. Not six victims. but twenty,
was the monument to devilishness which
this real monster of an enlightened age
erected, and thereby earned for himself
a place ON gallows in Moyamensing
prison, Philadelphia. Rluebeard had
single castle; Holmes had sew eral.
1t would seem that one su,h creature
as Holmes would be enough for n whole
century, yet his own generation appears
to have produced his equal, for the Chi
cago police say they believe that Johann
Hoch, whom they have in custody, has
married twenty women aud killed half
of them. If they can prove their asser-
tons they have the most extraordinary
criminal of the age.
Chicago seems to have been made his

and taken thence Immediately after mar

LIFTS UP NEGRO.



President Roosevelt gave the fruit of
his thought on the race problem in
speech Monday night before the Rcpubli-
can Club in New York City. The occa-
sion was the Lincoln dinner of the club.
The President made stirring appeal to
the American love of justice and equal
ity for sincere effort to uplift the moral
and industrial standard of the negro,
He thought a desire to help up should
conquer a desire to crush down. The
advance of the black man meant the adj
vance Of the white, he said, and he spe-
sally urged negroes TO work INCREASINGLY
to eradicate shiftlessness and crime from
among their people. He invoked the
spirit of justice that animated Lincoln
and used this as his text. The Presi-
dent thanked the people Of the South
and North who had aided in the war on
lynching and cited the fact that the
last three months showed smaller num-
Der of lynchings than any similar period
in the last twenty years
The Presidents speech at the Lincoln
dinner was devoted chiefly to the race
problem In the course of his remarks
he said:
High though he G.incoIn) put peace.
he put Righteousness higher.
Our effort should be TO secure to each
man, whatever his color, equality of op-
portunity, equality of treatment before
the law.
The only safe principle upon which
Americans can act is that of all men up,
not that of some men down.
'I4aziness and shiftlessness, vice and
criminality of every Kind are evils more
potent for harm to the black race than
all the acts of oppression of white men
put together.
Let us be steadfast for the right; but
let US err on the side of generosity rather
than on the side of yindictiveness.
Il could not have such confident faith
in the destiny of this mighty people if /
had it merely as regards one portion of
that people,"
President Roosevelt prefaced his pre-
pared speech at the Lincoln dinner by a
short extemporaneous introduction, in
which be said that, although he was
speaking to fellow members of. his old
political club, what he was going to say
would be said as an American speaking
to good Americans. He then entered
upon ms set speech. but departed ire
quently from the text, and these depart
ures constituted some of the most inter-
esting features of the address.
In speaking of the readiness with
which people delight to find fault in
neighbors, he said:
ut is a good thing to remember that,
while it is occasionally proper to join in
mass meetings for the purpose of call
ing attention to neighbors' shortcomings,
it is normally better to turn to our own"
In presenting figures showing a de-
crease in lynchings in the last three
months the President said:
These are striking figures and l take
certain satisfaction in them in view of
some Of the gloomy forebodings of last
summer"
Another side remark which caught the
Presidents hearers was:
There is not one of us that does not
sometimes stumble, and shame be to us If
we do not help him up, but if he lies
down there is no use in trying to carry
him. 1t will hurt both of u.s."

der, may be grown and cut ct any
stage of growth. The system of rota-
ton should be governed by the condi-
ton of the land and the value of the
crops in market. No grain crop, how
ever, should follow another, if it can
be avoided. but if two grain crops are
produced in two seasons the third crop
should be clover or the land made to
produce green manurial crops for turn
ing under, lime being also used.
