THE PARADISE OF THE NEGRO

Washington City has the largest
negro population of any city in
the world. Next to it comes Bal
timore. In Baltimore, however,
less than one fifth of the popula
ton is colored, while in Washing
ton negroes constitute one third of
the population. Washington has
more meanly insolent negroes than
any other city, North or South.
Within ten days no less than five
white women in that city have
been assaulted by negro brutes,
and only one has been captured
The treatment of the negro in
Washington furnishes an object
lesson to those who would give
him free rein.
Nowhere else is there such toler
alton of negro ofensiveness as
there is in Washington.
Ever since the Civil War Wash
ington has been the happy hunt
ing ground of the negroes and they
have never ceased to gather there
as city of refuge.
In Washington the negro has
his own way as he has nowhere
else, even in Philadelphia or Bos-
ton. In the Northern cities the
policemen have no sympathy for
the negro, and they keep him in
order. But in Washington he is
recognized as government pet,
and the police force deals with him
very tenderly and also allows him
many privileges. The white in
habitants stand in awe of him and
give him the right of way on the
sidewalks, and the negro driver of
ten seems especially happy when
he is trying to drive over a white
man.
By the census of 1900 there were
no less than $4,000 negroes living
in Washington from beyond the
district lines. These negroes swarm
to Washington because they have
more liberty there than anywhere
else outside of Guinea. They get
Government offices, sit on juries
and those who do not feel like
working are supported by the wo-
men of their own race, who hire
themselves as cooks and house
maids.

Should Read the Bible

IN aged Reno man decided his brother
ten acres OF valuable land, with the un-
lerstanding that he was to be cared for
tie balance OF his life. The care was
not satisfactory, and after going to the
poor farm he sued TO recover his prop
erlv. Tie suit was decided against him
recently, and his lawyer, a very versa
tile man, broke the news to him gently
by reading n few verses from the 33d
chapter OF Eeelesilstieus, a part OF the
Alocrypha;
Give not thy son and wife, thy bro
ther and friend, power over thee while
thou ~liyest, and give not thy goods to
another, lest il repent thee AMI thou en-
treat for the same again.
rs long rs thou iivest and hath
breath, giye--not thyself over to any, for
better it is that thy children should
seek tfeir courtesy.
''In thy works keep to thyself the pre-
%eminence; have not a stain in thine
honor.
at the time when thou shalt end thy
dlys and finish thy lie, Distribute thine
inheritance"
The aged man thanked the attorney
for the reading OF the lesson, then tot
tered away.
