unassuming manner. Perhaps, never
before in his history as public
speaker did he pay the Negro race a
higher compliment than he did yes

races who were trying to solve the
race problem when they had nothing

problem Of individual success.
The speaker in the course Of his
remarks admonished his hearers not
to be ashamed of their race or color.
He said that he was proud he was a
Negro, and If he had his choice again
as to what race he would belong, he
would be Negro. He dwelt at length
on the fact that this was construct

St. Hu- bert's day is still enthusiastically commemorated by their great sport ing chatelains in La Vandee and Le Poitou by assembling their dogs III the chapels dedicated to St. Hubert where the well-trained animals are solemnly seated on their hind legs ill front of the image of the saint, when the priest, in full canonicals, enun- ciates in Latin a prayer besecehina that the pack may be free from hy' drophobia, mango, worms, ear dis ease, snake bites, wounds from boar or stag, and from all other evils ol dangers to which canine flesh is heir
 Aside from these religious cere' l monies, which are derided by a large majority of the atheistic Frencf sportsmen of today, the more demo- cratic masses decorate their shooting dogs with tricolor ribbons and take them out in quest of stray rabbit partridge or blackbird.

The two accused railroad companies may he fined a like sum, reckoned on the basis of two indictments against them io;ntlv and the two separately, the 1atter containing 1SS counts in one and forty in the other.
 These indictments, based upon al- ,o.od violations of the Elkins law
 were handed to Judge Hazel, for the Svestern district of New York, by the federal grand jury sitting at James, town, which spent several weeks in considering the evidence brought against the four corporations. The iury held that the connecting lines in Vermont were not parties to the alleged rebate arrangement. The in- dictments are found on shipments of oil from August, 1904, to June, l9Oo 22S cars in all.
 It is alleged that the lawful shipping rate from Clean to Vermont points was made up of two legally filed
 schedules of rates by the railroad companies, one from Clean to Nor wood. Vt, the other from Norwood tC point of destination. The schedule filed with the interstate commerce commission showed the rate from Il Clean to Burlington. Vt, to be 26 1-- cents per 100, while the Standard Oi and Vacuum companies were siveI rate of il S-19 cents.
