Helpless Women at a Premium.

A man admires nothing more in a
woman than helplessness; he thinks
1t. like patience, is a sign of woman
illness; and womanliness is the one
quality he can never resist. Now, the
helpless female is rapidly becoming
extinct-golf and tennis and hockey,
hunting, fencing and Sandow have
killed her. With the development OF
her muscular powers IL would seem
that she is losing a great deal OF her
influence over man.-Ladies' Field.

A FOOLISH AMBITION.

The Boston Globe has an editorial on what 1t calls "The craze for huge warships," that brings up some inter- esting thoughts. England has lately launched the most powerful war ves- sel ever seen, we believe, and the re- port is that she is preparing to build several more of even greater size. Then the report comes from Germany that the Kaiser has gwen orders for a more powerful ship than England's much-lauded Dreadnaught. Russia also has the fever ana the statement comes from Washington that our gov ernment proposes to build one or more ships that will outclass anything yet constructed.
 What is the meaning of all this na- val activity. and where will it end? Does it mean that all the so-called civilized nations of earth both expect and desire war and are preparing for it? It looks somewhat like d huge and very expensive game of bluff It looks as if each nation wants to bully and browbeat all other nations and as if each thinks it can make itself strong enough to overpower all others, or else that each wants to frIgnten the others and prevent theu from building big warships.
 We can see no good sense in such

 Like tLe rose. The colorS fade, the bird songs hushs how deeply it doth grieve us
 When it goes. Soon the: skies grow grey and ashen: they are clouded. drear and sober And we sigh to see the beauty of the last days of October
 Pass away. Oh. the pathos of November when we sit and watch each ember
 Burning low. When alone we con and thoughtful OCT the summer we remember

AT VANDIVER PARK.

 With the Coosa and Alabama rive:s gomery's position would he a most enviable one. for with cheap. coal at her doors and the command of chean steel from the immense steel plant. at Gadsden, and cheap lumtsr of ev. cry variety, she would become one of the S'ruth. of the products of steel furn / @, cotton soods and many mention.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Editor Advertisers:
 On my return here after some time of absence I find that such general commotion has been kicked up about the pigmy and the a3as at the Bronx Park Geological Ga:d.n. and that 50 much misst itement has gene forth about the matter, tat l ". :te to se: the facts s.r:tignt befo:" the publi :. particularly in Alabama.
 The fact is that the pigmy was new CT put in the ape cage at all. That statement was one of the numerous New York newspIre- lies He was given Job a: :nr Iuu, put on the pay roll. given :, neat c. ,mfortable room, and only went into the cages on his own account to play with the tame monkeys. The mysteries into which some people Immediately plunged were entirt'v characteristic of the people who suffered from the disease. The pigmy vas happy-he Is still.
 Perhaps if some others than apes or pigmies were caged for a while the country might be the better for it. ;. p Werner.

KNOCKERS AND GRUMBLERS. Remarks The Roanoxe Leader:

The Leader has no patience with a senseless. needless knocker. who Is always decrying his community. but 1t is a fact that every newspaper owes it to its town to point out from time to time conditions that should be rem edied. The local newspaper should be the representative of the best interests of the people.
 Every city has two classes of peo- pie who are always in evidence One class wants the newspapers to be eter- nahy knocking everything that the disgruntled citizen thinks is objec- tionable. while the others kick like steers if the paper says anything that may not be pleasant and satisfactory to them. Neither class is right. It Is not the business of a newspaper to act as 8 scavenger and nos. out and make public all the alleged wrong doings that some affect to see, nor is it the papers province to take up and ex- ploit the complaints of every man who may think he has a wrong, or a just cause of complaint. There are obliga- tions and duties resting on citizens as well as newspapers.
 But the other class is also in the wrong: we mean those otherwise good citizens who complain because the ex- posture and condemnation of a wrong may affect them individually, or may bring down censure on the city. It is the province of a good newspaper to point out Ind condemn a wrong which may affect the public or the good name of the city. For the professional and tireless knocker we have little pa- tience. and still less for the one who wants a newspaper to be a nest -hider.

LEARN NECHANYCS.

The Kansas City Journal speaks of that place as "a great city. eagerly demanding skilled mecnanics to help build It, and without a school whore boy can learn a trade" Then it says:
 Every boy should be taught trade. if possible, even though he may not gaining a livelihood. A good mechan- ic is always sure of . living, while many ambitious young men waste their lives in professions for which they have no aptitude. Many a good mechanic is spoiled in making a poor lawyer, doctor or preacher. To know trade increases young mans self reliance and gives him a sense of in- distinguished professional mon and scientists find their greatest diversion in working in their leisure hours at a trade which they learned in their youth. And many a man has utterly missed his vocation and finds himself too late a xailure because he was driven into some business or profess sion before he learned where his tal- ents lay.
 Possibly The Journal goes a little too far when 1t says that "every boy should be taught a trade" but 1t Is better to err in that direction than in the other. A practical knowledge of mechanics would be no handicap to the professional or business man. while it-might-come in handy 70 any of them at some time. The man who fails In s business or professional career might be much better off if he had trade to fall back on. and thus save himself from becoming a useless member of society. Certainly for the farmer who does his own farm work a practical knowledge of blacksmithing and car pentering would be u great help at many times in the way of repairing farm utensils and doing other neces- sary work instead of sending off for a man to do the work for him. And yet. necessary as such branch. of education would be to any boy. there are many cities where 1t is impossible for him to get 1t. That is one reason why such a comparatively small number of boys grow up with a knowledge of mechan- ics that would be of such advantage to them in after life. Better be a suc- cess as a good mechanic than a failure as a business or professional man.

Last week the Supreme Court of much importance on account of Its bearing on uniopsm. It appears that some time ago Judge Morton of that court, issued a permanent injunction restraining certain unlons and their officers and members from interfering with non union men. The unions ap- peaied to the full bench and the fol- lowing is part of the courts opinion:
 In our opinion, organized labor s right of coercion and compulsion is limited to strikes on persons with dispute, or to put it another way. we are of the opinion that strike on A, with whom the striker has no trade dispute, to compel A to force B to yield to the strikers demands Is an unjustifiable interference with the rights of A to pursue his calling as he thinks best .... This knocks out what Is called the sympathetic strike" where the work CTS in one shop are forced to quit work because those of another shop have struck. As The Washington Post says, the unions are now expect cd to admit that the coercing of one employer through the means of. an other can no more be practiced in Massachusetts" It should be the same , everywhere else.
