One of the sensations of the week
In New York was the charge against
Senior Caruso. the famous Italian tenor
for having annoyed ami insulted won-
en- In the Central Park zoo. Caruso Ii
probably the most noted tenor singer
in the world. While Caruso was at
the monkey house In Central park some
days ago. a woman complained against
him to q policeman. The policeman
arrested Caruso and took the woman's
name and address. The matter got
into the papers at once, of course.
and made lots Of talk The woman
failed to appear at the police court
trial; but the policeman himself made
good and Caruso was convicted ana
sentenced to pay fine Of $40. Car
uso has appealed and In the meantime
the papers all over this country and
Europe are talking about the matter.
Some look at it one way and some an
other, but with most Of them there APP
pears to be suspicion that the whole
thing has been trumped up with view
to the notoriety that goes to ,Caruso.
All the leading theatrical people have
their press agents, and in view OF the
many ingenious schemes that have
been resorted to from time to time. 1t
is thought that this is merely an ex-
ira clever effort on the part Of a press
agent.

IT will be interesting to note the fur
ther action Of the president as to the
discharged negro soldiers. Investiga-
ton seems to have shown that the
shooting up of Brownsville was pre-
meditated, and that all the negro SOL
diers were parties to 1t. Those who
know the negro character best do very
little violence to their intelligence In
assuming that the negroes calculated
beforehand that the president would
back them up in the affair. They eV-
IDENTIFY reasoned that he would not pun
ish them. Whether all the soldiers were
accessories before the fact, there is lit
tie reason to doubt that they became
accessories after the fact. The negro
is secretive toward the whites; but ne
tells his own race everything. The
only surprising thing about the whole
affair was that the president should
have acted as wisely as he did in the
matter. But now let US watch and see
If he holds on to his previous action.

TILLMAN IN CHICAGO.
Senator Says He Is Not Afraid OF
Any Negro Living.

Senator Says He Is Not Afraid Of
Any Negro Living.
"In view Of the present agitation l
will be forced to emphasize that por-
ton of my address relating to the race
problem"
In these words, says Chicago dis
match to the New York Sun, United
States Senator Benjamin r. Tillman on
last Saturday. answered any sugges-
ton that he eliminate from his address
on Annexation Of Cuba" to be delfv-
cred here next Tuesday evening, refer
ence to the race problem.
During his two hours stay in Chicago
he also vetoed suggestions that he have
police escort on the day he delivers
the address and openly defied any at
tempt to carry out the threats of vio-
lence.
When he was asked by Mrs. A. j..
Keeler and a committee representing
the hospital for which he will lecture
to expurgate his address so that there
would be no objections to it by the ne
gro population of Chicago, he declared
that the race problem was so knitted
into the question of annexation that he
could deliver no intelligent talk on the
subject without giving his views on the
disposition Of the negro. Senator Till
man informed the committee that he
would deliver his lecture as outlined.
II am surprised that the people OF
Chicago should be aroused by any
threats of a negro uprising. 1t seems
ridiculous that such thing should be
thought of. 1t Is more than absurd for
negroes to think they can stop sena-
tor Of the United States from speaking.
They might as well try to stop Roose-
velt."
When asked If he would want a po-
lice escort he Said
II am not afraid Of any negro that
ever lived. AS to threats against my
life they have been made so repeatedly
in the past on account Of my position
upon the race problem that I pay no
more attention to them. They do not
even assume the Importance of an In
cident Of my life"
Senator Tillman went to South Ha-
ven, Mich, at noon, where he delivered
an address Saturday night.

In our opinion the Spartanburg grand
jury Is right in recommending better
pay for jurors and witnesses; but we
do not think that the increased pay
will serve as greater encouragement
to attendance. Most people who desire
to get excused on account Of the
amount of pay are Of kind who would
not be tempted by any other per diem
that would be in reason. However, the
pay allowed to witnesses and jurors is
too small. The sum might very well
be doubled.

CHARLOTTE SEcEDERs.-There are no
better people in the world than the
Seceders. or the Associate Reformed
churchmen. 1t Is within the memory
Of many Charlotte residents when the
membership of this denomination here
was but a mere handful and the one
place of worship quite a primitive af-
fair Now the Associate Reformed de-
nomination Is one of the strongest In
Charlotte. An evidence Of its growth
is instanced in the case Of the East
Avenue Tabernacle, the congregation
Of which was organized only six years
ago, with eighty members. 1t now
has a membership Of four hundred
and sixty-five, the largest enrolment
OF any church in the Associate Reform
ed synod. This is the record Of but
one particular church Of this denomi-
nation. Much of the good results Is
due to the fact that 1t has for its pas
tor consecrated minister, holy man
Of God, who follows the precepts OF
the Saviour in going about doing good
and In searching out opportunities for
fulfilling his Observation-Disclosures Chron-
icle.

would be literally paralyzed. However
it is probable that the American Fed

The gulf stream Is a remarkable
oceanic current which derives it's name
from the gulf OF Mexico, out Of which
II flows, passes into the Atlantic be.

North America until II reaches New.

One portion then passes southerly to
ward the Azores. but the larger stream
washes the coasts Of the British isles
and even reaches to the shores Of
Spitzbergen and Nova Zembla. II va
Ties in velocity at different points Of its
course. II has an average speed OF
four or Eve miles an hour as II issues
from the gulf OF Mexico; of Cape Hat
teras the velocity IL about three miles
an hour, while OF Newfoundland II is
reduced TO one and a half miles per
hour. In its passage across the Allan

ST. SWlTHiN AND RAIN.
The Legend of the Chapel Over the

The superstltions referring TO par

legend Of st. Swlthin is an example
that will occur 10 every one:

Antiquities" was n man equally not
ed for uprightness and humility. So
far did he carry the latter virtue that
on his deathbed he requested TO be
buried not within the church. but out
side the churchyard on the north OF the
sacred building. where his corpse might
receive the eavesdropplngs from the
roof and his grave be trodden by the
feet OF passersby. His lowly request
was compiled with. and In this neglect
ed spot his remains reposed I'LL about
100 years afterward, when a at Of
plous indignation seized the clergy at
the fact that the body OF 30 holy a
member OF their order was allowed to
occupy such position. and on an ap-
pointed day they all assembled to con-
vey 1t with great pomp to the adjoin-
ing cathedral Of Winchester. When
they were about to commence the cere-
mony heavy rain burst forth and con-
tlnued without intermlssion for the
forty succeeding days. The monks In

from heaven Of the blasphemous nature

disturbing his remains they erected a
chapel over his grave" "St. Swithin Is

A managing woman is quite term
Of reproach; but it ought not to be so,
for every wife and mother should try
to be this. The fact is that women
feel this pretty generally, but good
many have not the tact and wisdom
they need to help them in their work.
Management. when recognized. is al
ways rather resented both by children
and grown-up people as an indignity,
but tactful woman never lets it be
seen, and peace and happiness are as
sured under her reign.
She studies the dispositions of her
husband, children, and dependents, and
wins rather than drives. She is gentle
and courteous, and requests and sug-
gests far more than she commands.
The great secret of successful man.
agement at home Is to keep your own
temper. and to take care not to upset
any one elses. In the control of her
servants the good mistress gives praise
where it is deserved. and gives credit
for good intentions even where the per-
Torrance has not been wholly satisfac-
tory. II sometimes it is necessary to
administer repr00f, she chooses a
time when she can do so pleasantly.

ner, the look, were perfectly natural,

How pleasant was that courteous re-

to the wife. Many husbands of ten
years experience are ready enough with
the courtesies of politeness to the
young ladies of their acquaintance,
while they speak with abruptness to the
wife, and do many rude little things

In making a young girls dress 1t Is

tain the even length demanded of all
short dresses. Hang the skirt proper
ly and sew. it on the belt Try it on
the girl who is to wear it and when
it hangs as it should, take a stiff foot
rule and hold upright with one end on
the floor. AS the model turns slowly,
mark the skirt very closely by the up
per end of the ruler, with pins or chalk.
Take off the skirt and spread 1t on the
sewing table and outline the tracing
by basting. Having decided how short
you wish the skirt you have simply to
remember that the skirt is gagged u
