On all sides this morning are heard
condemnation of the officials of the

wounded hundreds of unarn1ed subjects.
The newspapers take the same attitude

policy of blood.
Blood and Disgrace.
The Evening Sun in an editorial
has this to say:
The Russian government has covered
itself with the blood of the people. and
with disgrace. The whole civilized
world is appalled, at the bloodIustiness
of the military and other governing
bodies"
The Echo says it is hard to believe
that even the pathetic loyalty of the
Russian peasant can survive this crime
No nation, the paper adds, which
respected itself could sit down and toll
crate such abominatfon. BY refusing TO
meet its people. the Car has morally

The editorial proceeds TO contrast the
horror with the assasSina ton of King

attitude today.

Canny John Sherman.

The late Secretary John Sherman
showed his talent for fnanciering at
an early age. He and two of his
brothers had been given a sum of
money with which to pay their board
while on a shooting trip for week at
the house of farmer near Lancaster,
O., their home.
The week ended, John ordered the
wagon and paid his board. But the
farmer refused the money, saying that
the SONS of Judge Sherman would al
ways be welcome guests. When John
found that he did not have to pay his
board he sent the wagon back to the
barn and stayed another week.-Lip-

Breaking Eggs For a Living.

A correspondent Of contemporary
who has been searching for the most
monotonous method Of earning living
decides in favor Of that Of cracking
eggs. 81 met man who said he was
a biscuit manufacturer on a large scale
and was rather inclined to boast about
the number of eggs ontinental eggs
which his firm bought in the course of
a year Now, it seems that to avoid
calamity five eggs are broken into a
bowl at time before being added to
the common stock. There are men, he
told me, who do nothing else but crack
eggs. They become SO expert that a
man can dispose of 1000 an hour, Or
10000 q day"-London Star.

THE UNDER MARRIAGE.
Wedding Customs and FroIics That
Prevail In Holland.

Wedding Customs and FrOIics That
Prevail In Holland.
In Holland two weeks before mar
riage takes place cards are sent out de-.
claring that the banns have been pub
lished This is called an under mar
rage" The card also announces when
the final marriage is to take place. The
wedding itself is a small affair, and
the civil marriage is the only one rec
ogniZed by law. A church wedding is
| usually looked upon as a concession to
either fashion or sentimentalitys and is
called "consecration of the marriage"
The couple enter the church behind the
family members, bridesmaids and 9th
er attendants They are shown to seats
before the whole assembly, and the
clergyman comes in with two witness
es long after the others have been seat
ed. He first makes prayer, then de-
livers sermon on a suitable text,
which usually brings the bride to tears.
After that the couple are married. Then
hymn Is sung and the blessing given.
The whole occupies about an hour and
a quarter. Before leaving the church
huge Bible is presented to the bride
groom. During the two weeks Of wait
ing between the under marriage and
the real marriage all the wedding fes-
tivities take place. The happy couple
are literally surfeited with dinners,
balls and theater parties, and all man
ner Of practical jokes are played on the
pair. AT the dinner toasts innumerable
are given, and at each the whole COM
pany rises from the table to sound and
touch glasses with the bride and groom,
who never rise. Among their friends
the idea is not to allow the couple a
night of sleep, if possible, before the
wedding day.

A RACE war NOW
MENACES chicago.
CLASHES BETWEEN WHITE AND
coLoRED PEOPLE ARE
FREQUENT.
One Man is Killed and Another Fa-
tally Wounded and Building is
Wrecked Before Police Disperse
the Unruly Mob.

Chicago, May 22.-Chicago is threat
ened with race war Of serious pro-
portions.
/, Ernbittered by the shooting of Enoch
Carlson, an eight-year-old bow, last
week, by two negroes, the residents in
the vicinity of Twenty-ninth and Dear
born streets have armed themselves,
and clashes between white and colored
men have become so frequent since the
Carlson murder that it has been found
necessary to detail scores of policemen
IN the quarter to preserve peace. Even
this precaution has been unsuccessful
in keeping the opposing factions apart.
In a riot which broke out in this
quarter last night between the white
and blacks, James Gray, colored, was
killed, Harry Bernstein was mortally
wounded and building, in which
Bernstein was being held captive
suffering from four bullet wounds,
was stoned and partially wrecked by q
mob OF, 1000 persons.
The trouble started when James
Gray, accused Bernstein and a white
companion OF being trouble makers.
Since the teamsters' strike Gray has
been employed by coal company as
driver.
The merits of the strike and the
shooting of young Carlson were up fo1
discussion. Angry words soon led tc
blows and in the fight that followed
Gray drew knife and attacked both
men. Bernstein, who is bartender
in the vicinity, drew a revolver and
fred four shots.
Two of the bullets took effect in
Gray's body and he fell unconscious tc
the sidewalk. He died while being
removed to hospital.
Poske, who is Waterman in a coal
yard, says that several negroes started
quarrel with him.

THE BAYEUx TAPESTRY.
An Extraordinary Work of Art of
Great Historic Value.

An Extraordinary Work of Art of
Great Historic Value.
Few besides those who have visited
BayeuX or have especially studied the
subject have any idea of what this ex-
traordinary work Of art is really like
or have any authentic knowledge of it's
history. 1t tells the story of Edward,
Harold and William and Of the con-
quest of William in series Of pic
lures, SO that it's value is great as a
chronicle as well as a relic of needle
work 800 years old.
The vicissitudes of the treasure have
been many. 1t is a curious fact that
from 1916 until 1924 it seems to have
dropped entirely out Of the worlds
knowledge 1t was preserved with
care among the treasures of the
Bayeux cathedral and was brought out
for eight days every summer and hung
about the nave of the cathedral. No
one but the peasants ever saw it, and
the cathedral authorities cared for it
only as decoration. In 1924 an old
drawing Of part Of the tapestry came
into the hands of q learned antigua
rian, who tried without success to find
the original. The Pere Montfaucon
also tried to find it and at last succeed
ed and told the world about it in his
great book, Monuments de la Monar-
chic Franchise"
The church had no power to protect
such treasure in 1924, and the ancient
length of linen with it's quaint en-
broidery was dragged out Of the ca
thedral and used to cover one Of the
military wagons belonging to the local
battalion. M. lie Forester rushed to
it's rescue and substituted a canvas to
cover the wagon and brought the tap
estry to his study till he was relieved
from his self appointed mission by a
commission that undertook the protec-
ton of the work of art. Now the tap
estry has been restored and may be
seen framed under glass in museum
Of its own.

COLOR OF THE SUN.
What Would happen If 1t Were 9th
er Than What 1T Is.

A German astronomer has published
theoretical effects of change in the
color of the sun. 1t is amazing to con
slider the possibilities if our sun were
green, blue or red instead Of what it
is. IL it, were blue, there would be
only two colors ia the worid-blue and
black. If it We're red, then everything
would be red or black. If it were vel
low, everything would be yellow OF
black. Every one knows that the light
of our sun consists of six colors, and
the reason things are different hues is
that some swallow up five of the colors
and reflect only one. Thus we have
primoses yellow because they absorb
all but the yellow, roses red because
they absorb all but the red, violets
purple because they absorb every
thing but red and blue, mixture of
which two colors forms purple.
In the event OF the sun being red,
roses, blood, red ink and all other
things that are now red would reflect
! 1t. So also would snow, the lily and
all things that are now white, but
these would, of course, be red. Every
thing else would swallow up the red
light and appear quite black. Grass,
for instance, would be black as ink,
and SO would the blue of the sky, but
the white clouds would be red. The
same kind of thing would happen il
the sun were blue. Everything now
blue or white would be blue and every
thing else black. The whole sky,
clouds and all, would be blue The
grass this time would be blue, not
! black, for it reflects both blue and
yellow Hair would be all black, the
red of the lips would be black, and the
rest of the face would be cloudy
4 blue. If the sun were green, we would
have little variety. Things that are
now yellow would still be yellow,
things that are blue would be blue,
and things that are green would still
be green, but there would be no reds,
purples orange, pinks or any of those
CHEEKY hues that make the world look
so bright.-New York Herald.
