AS TO THE RIGHT MAN.

a college president quoted by the
Boston Globe is authority for the
statement that the young women edu-
Gated In colleges are as willing 10 en-
ter the state OF matrimony,as any other
young women, provided the right man
woos them They are, according TO
this expert more independent than
their sisters, and can therefore
afford to wait for the right man, since
they are perfectly capable OF taking
care OF themselves.
II this Is true statement Of the
facts, there must be lamentable lack
OF THE right man among the I'M
married portion OF manhood. For an
overwhelming number OF college wa.
men, somehow, do not ind him. DR.
Felter principal of the Girls High
School, Brooklyn claims that one In
vestigator proves that only 81 per cent
Of college girl graduates marry. An
other concludes, after an examination
OF l,s05 cases, that only 2s per cent
married. The rate OF marriage for
the country at large for women more
than twenty years OF age is nearly SO
per cent Still another investigator
shows that OF $3.50 graduates OF slS-
teen colleges, 20 per cent married. II
Is claimed, furthermore, that the rate
of marriage Of college women 10 de-
| creasing and that the age az which
marriage occurs Is becoming steadily
later.
The question OF motherhood is also
considered, and the conclusion ia
| reached that II our race depended
upon the rate OF replenishment OF the
educated classes, It would be doomed
to speedy extinction, ANY college, "
says DR., Felter that depended on
the children OF its graduates for fresh
students would be doomed TO extinction.
Colleges have grown and educated
| classes have increased until some o.
the professions are overcrowded. bu,
the old families are disappearing and
leaders are continually recruited from
the class below" Among the causes
for this state OF affairs, the principal
seems TO be the unwillinsness to sac.

the responsibilities Of parenthood.

this point the Brooklyn professor says:

 T never knew Walsh" said one but a man who is in business in a neighbor- Ing city told me that Walsh was a con tradiction. He cited in proof this singu- lar story:
 One day he went into Walsh's bank and found him in consultation with two men who were making a special plea for loan, offering security which seemed to be gilt edged He overheard Walsh say that he did not care to make the loan upon any conditions.
 "The two men went away The man who tells the story passed in He had never spoken to Walsh until this. The banker asked him what he wanted
 "'fhe man replied that he had intended asking if he could borrow s1O0 but that he had overheard what Mir. Walsh had said to the two men who had just passed out, He guessed there was no chance for him.

TELL SULTAN WHAT
 HAS TO BE DONE
MIR. WHITE AT ALGEclRAS Dl- REcTs ATTENTION OF DELE GATES TO uNFAvoRARLE STU. ATloN OF MOROCCAN JEWS.

Algeciras. April 2.-Today's sitting of the conference on Moroccan reforms though primarily devoted to the framing of the protocol, assumed importance owing to various delegates moving resolu- tions directing the attention of the sul- tan of Morocco to the necessity of inter- nal reforms. Mir. White. chief of the American delegation, with the support of the Duke of Almodovar, president of the conference, directed attention to the un- favorable situation of Jews in Morocco.
 Sir Arthur Nicholson, the British dele gate, and NJ. Revolt, the first French del- egate, advocated the abolition of slavery in Morocco. Herr von Radowitz, the principal German delegate, made an ap- peal for the establishment of light houses on the coast. Count Bolesta Koziebrodzk, the second Austrian delegate, urged the importance of the publication of com mercal statistics of the country The construction of-railways was advocated by the Duke of Almodovar.
 The conference requested the Italian minister to Morocco, Signor Malmusi, to proceed to Frez and communicate to the sultan the fact that the conclusions reached by the delegates have been unan- imously approved. The revised articles of the agreement of the conference as reached probably will be signed on Sat- urday.

DECISION RENDERED
 AGAINST THE ROADS
SUPREME COURT HOLDS THAT LINES IN MICHIGAN MUST PAY THE STATE s2,ooo,ooo AccUMu- LATED BACK TAXES.

Washington, April 2.-The supreme court of the United States today decided the Michigan railroad tax cases involving the taxes of all the railroads in that state for several years past against the rail- roads. The opinion was by Justice Brewer.
 There were twenty-seven cases, all in volving the validity of act No. 173 of the Michigan legislature of 1901 This law changed the method of taxing railroad and kindred corporations from the old system of exactlng the payment of cer- tain per cent of their gross earnings to an ad valorem system providing for the fixing of the tax vaius of the railroads on the average value at which other prop erty in the state is assessed The taxes levied against the various railroads of the state for 1902, the first year after the new law went into eeffct. aggregated s744, ,- s9S as against s263 446. the amount which would have been called for under the old system. The railroad companies tendered the latter sum and resisted the paymnet of the difference amounting to s4Sl All.
 Each year since. companies have re- fused to pay the differences so that the suits involved an accumulation of about g. COG. 600 in taxes as well as the establish ment of a tax system for the state per- manently fixing their annual payments at about three times as much as they have been in the past. The circuit court dis missed the bill of the railroad companies. thus sustaining the action of the state tax authorities and upholding the law under which it was taken and it's decision was affirmed by the supreme court today.

House Makes a Slip.

Jackson, Miss, April 2.-(speciq 1.-The house made a discovery yestepday that took the breath out of the enemies of the proposition to exempt money loaned at per cent from taxationt' The meas ure originated in the senate ywhere it was adopted after a warm debate, but the house put it's heavy foot 8gainst it. How ever, by some hook Or crook, the bill was returned to the senate with that section relating to the exemption of per cent money in place, just as the senate wanted it. The house was advised of the error, but in the event the senate does not feel disposed to return the bill for correction to suit the views of the house, nothing can be done about It. and per cent money will be exempt in spite of fthe house.
