The white man, if he is wise, will
decline to allow the negroes in mass
to grow to manhood and womanhood
without education. Unquestionably
education such as is obtained in our
public schools does not do everything
towards making a man good citizen;
but it does much. The. lowest and
most brutal criminals, those for in
stance who commit the. crime of rape,
are in the great. majority men who
have either no education or very little
just as they are almost invariably men
who own no. property; for the man who
puts money by out of his, earnings,
like the man who acquires education, is
usually lifted above mere brutal Grim

Roachey struggled desperately to rise, but his life was too near gone, and he gave it up, eX- bring before the last round had come in.

GIRL is LCRED BY FANATICS
Florence Hines Follows a Band of
 So.(alled Divine Headers.

Colorado Springs, Nov. 19,- the hypnotic spell of a religious
 frenzy, Florence Hines. pretty 15-year-old girl was taken from the divine healing home of the Rev. erend G. F. Fink in this city last night and was returned to her mother in Pueblo.
 The arrest of the girl caused a scene at Fink's home. She fought against being removed and shriell ed that no power on earth could com pei her to give up the strange faith that caused her to leave home and become a convert to Fink s teach ings For six weeks the detectives have been searching for the girl. and all this time she has been in hiding in Colorado Springs.
 The girls mother, Mrs. Hines. aives at No. 120 Eighth street #Pueblo. \ year ago Mrs. Hines came to Colorado Springs, attracted here by the stories she had heard #of Fink s power as a healer, and she spent some time at his institu- tion, taking the faith cure Not receiving. any benefit, she says. she renounced the religious sect and re- turned to Pueblo.
 The influence of Fink and his fol- lowers over the young girl, how ever. was so strong that she ran away from home and returned to the sect in this city. Detective Schultz subjected her to sweating process in an effort to duplicate the religious sect in her detention, but without avail The girl fell to her knees in the chiefs office and loud ly called on heaven to help her in what she considered the greatest distress of her life. The child-lille prayer she uttered touched the tfarts of the officers.

NOW MOST
 FEARED FlnANclER
Achieved Ambition of His Life When He Successfully Enginccf-
 ed Illinois Central Coup.

Washington. D. C., Nov. Ed ward henry Hartman has achieved the ambition of his life only to face government inquiry into his cham of railroads extending rom the At lantic to the Pacific and from the Lakes to the Gulf. His control of the Illinois Central, which became fact at the time J. T. Harnahan was elected president, has furnish- ed the missing link for the gigantic system. His four railroads have securities aggre@ating $1 zoo ,000,- ooo and with other corporations bringing the total up to S2,30O,- 000,OOO at his back, he is now the most feared man on Wall street, not excepting Thomas F. Ryan.
 When the interstate commerce commission begins it's investigation of the Hartman railroads, it IS probable that it will proceed nnder a resolution similar to that which controlled it's action in the North ern Securities inquiry.
 1t is now believed that the inves- tigation will be made at Omaha, the headquarters of the Union Pacific
 Some Witnesses.
 F.. H. Hartman, J. T. Harnahan, president of the Illinois Central; Stuysevant Fish, the roads recent ly deposed president; Cornelius Vanderbilt and John J. Astor will be among the witnesses In the Northern Securities inquiry w. A. Day acted for the commission, and his examination of Hartman and James II. Hill brought out much in- formation that startled the finan- cial world.
 Through the testimony of Harri man it was shown that the Oregon Short Line, with a capital stock of only $27,0o0, 0,006, was able to buy s7s,ooo,doo of Northern Pacific stock.
 The Oregon Short Line is still the holding company for most of the Hartman railroad properties, and it's connection with the acquir- ed control of the Illinois Central is what the interstate commerce com. mission win try to ascertain.
 Main Contention.
 The central contention in the matter is that, by reason of the ac- quisition of the control of Illinois Central and the Baltimore and Ohio and it's subsidiary concerns, Harri- man has destroyed the competition that naturally existed between the Union Pacific and the Southern Pa cific
 The Southern Pacific owns and controls the Morgan line steamers, which have recently swallowed the Cromwell liners. They carry freight from New York and other Atlantic coast points to New Orleans, where they deliver it to the Southern Pa cific. That constitutes trans-con- tinental system.
 Since the Illinois Central and the Baltimore and Ohio passed into the Hartman control they, with the Union Pacific, constitute another ans-continental line. Before lfar- riman got control of the two east ern properties the Union Pacific di- vided it's tonnage Hereafter, it is

the understanding, the tonnage will be diverted altogether to the Balt- more and Ohio and such part of the Illinois Central as may be needed to complete the cross-the-continent aIl-Harriman system
 Until Hartman acquired control of the link that connects his Union Pacific and the Atlantic seaboard there also was danger of compcti- tive rates being made on shipments between the Atlantic and Pacific. His control removes that.
