Tho Exodus.

Tho Exodus.
They are going. they are going. where
Missouri's waves are flowing,
Where the waving crops are grow
ing for the tiller of the soil;
Where the light of Justice beameth
and the sword of Justice gleam-
eth,
And good fortune ever seemeth as
attendant upon toll.
Far from Erin they are flying, where
their fathers bones are lying,
Where Atlantic's waves are signing
round her desolated shore;
Where the streams of care are yelling
round each simple peasants
dwelling,
And the bravest hearts are swelling
with the sorrow at their core.
There are parents fond. endearing;
there are scenes yet bright and
cheering:
But an evil star is peering. DER the
dwellings of our isle
Ger the cot amidst the bushes where
the shining river rushes,
Where the sparkling fountain gushes
like a heart that has no guile.
They are leaving home forever; and
the fondest kindred sever;
And the light Of joy shall never
brightly beam upon their breast.
Though the freeman's flag is DER them,
and a life of peace before them,
Yet the mother fond who bore them
signs with sorrow in the West.
Let them go! may Heaven speed them!
be blessed lot decreed them;
But if Ireland Ger shall need them.
may they hasten DER the sea:
May the loving hearts that slumbered,
by the weight of grief encum-
bered,
Beat for Erin's woes unnumbered,
and return to set her free!

And long the plying sky has wept
Above the moldering slain
The ravens scream or eagles flight
Or shepherds pensive lay
Alone awakes each sulen height

Where stranger steps and tongues re

Thus meath their parent turf they rest
Far from the CORY field.
Borne to a Spartan mothers breast
On many a bloody shield:
The sunshine of their native sky
Smiles sadly on them here,
And kindred eyes and hearts watch
The heroes sepulchre.
Rest on. embalmed and sainted dead,
Dear as the blood We gave.
No impious footstep here shall tread
The heritage of your grave;
Nor shall your glory he forgot
While fame her. record keeps,
Or honor points the hallowed spot
Where valor proudly sleeps.
Yon marble minsuel's voiceless stone
In ceaseless song shall tell,
When many vanquished age hath

Nor wreck. nor change, nor winters

Nor times remorseless doom,
Shall dim one ray of glory's light

4 TRUE SAYING.

A Boston banker expresses a great truth when he declares that mo money is so dead as that which is not earn ing its own living" It is rather quaint way of putting it, but it is an effective one. Live, active men have little use for the drone in life. The strong. healthy man who does nothing but loaf, and never does anything for the good of himself or others. is not regarded with favor by the industrious workers.
 And so it is with money that is hid- den away, We censure and condemn the reckless spendthrift. and too often he injures or ruins himself and fam fly. but at last there is one redeeming feature in connection with his lavish misuse of money: it gets itself scat tered and distributed. and perhaps most of it will fall into hands that will put 1t to better use. It has been said that the worst use to which money can be put is Q hoard it. This does not mean that man is to be blamed for taking care of his money, or for laying away a suitable provision for himself and family If he can afford 1t, for the man who falls to look out for the future and provide against evil times and mis- fortune is lacking in one of the essen tials of citizenship, for he may be paw ing the way for suffering for those de- pendent on him, or of causing them to become a burden on others.
 The BoSton banker evidently had in mind those wealthy misers who gather together and hoard their millions so that neither themselves nor others re- ceive any benefit from their wealth. So far as any good proceeding from their money is concerned it might as we'll be tied up in sacks or nailed up in boxes and dumped into the lowest depths of the ocean. This is what, the banker meant by money not earning it's own living. He meant that the best use to which surplus wealth can possibly be put is to keep 1t in circu- lation, so that in its course through the world 1t will touch many places where 1t will do good. relieve many burdens and gladden. many hearts. The money that is buried might as well not exist.

NO DowRY FOR DUG.

This is Stipulation of Theodore yhonts to French N0bleman.
 New York, Nov. 21.t-According to friends of the Shonts family in this city, President Theodore P. Shonts of Interborough- Metropolitan Railway, was persuaded to allow his daughter, Theodore to become engaged to the Due De Chaulnes by members of the family and by the Duke himself
 The Duke finally succeeded it ap- pears, in convincing Mfr. Shonts that he was not fortune hunter. It seems that when Mir. Shonts first heard of his daughters attachment for the Due, he declared emphatically that he could have no foreigner in the family. Nor did Miss Theodore receive much sup- port at first from her mother and sister.
 But Mir Shonts determined to treat the Duke fairly and he entertained him at the Shonts home in Washing ton. There the Duke continued to press his suit with Miss Theodore. and he won over all of the family except Mir. Shonts, but did not meet with much success until MT, Shonts real ized that he was entirely alone in his opposition.
 Previous to giving his consent, how ever. Mir. Shonts Insisted that the Duke must show his good faith by waiving any question of dowery. This it is said the Duke readily did. which proved to Mir, Shonts that his affair with Miss Theodore was really love match

Let the railroad managers assist us tmeanins the Governor and his Leg islature) in running the railroads of the State. at least to the extent of per- hitting them to cheek the baggage of passengers.r
 The foregoing Is the substance of a part of the able speech made by Sem ator Barbour in the Senate yesterday when that body had under consider alton the excess baggage bill. There is grim humor in the thought suggest ed by Senator Barbour. The grimness of it will be manifest to all our peo- pie in a short while. or as soon as the effects of the, drastic legislation enacted at the regular and speciar ses- sions of the present Legislature are felt.
 The present Legislature, under the dorlination of the Governor,-has put up a black flag against investments in this State, the evil effects of which will be felt by our children and our children's children.
 The only ray of hope now visible is the assurance that the good, sound common sense of the people win re- assert itself speedily. and that the<fu- ture win undo the great wrongs this administration has wrought.

\ nnMocRAr IN sPoTs.
Says The Pittsburg Sun:

The injustice of Mir. .Bryan's charac- kerization of the President as Dem pcrat in spots" must be recognized by twists and antics of this vociferous ex- ecufive. If the spots were only fast color, the public would have reason to the good judgment to take the best of his opponents policies and apply them where it seemed best; But these col when put to the test. The President goes so far and so hard after each new fad that appeals to his fancy that his valuable time backing up or tack ing. It will be noted now that in spite of all his tiamboyant talk about rich malefactors he hasn't landed a single one yet Either there aren't any or he doesn't dare reach out and take them, or he can't. Study the Spotted Demo- craty and his actions and choose your own theory.
 We are free to confess that we have little regard for spotted politicians. We can respect an earnest. sincere RepuI- ncan. however little regard we may -faye for his mistaken political views, but the Republican who tries to be "a Democrat in spots'' is not at all to our liking. We may safely feel assured that whenever MT. Roosevelt adopts any of the theories or policies of De- mocracy he does it for political or per sonal advantage. He expects to help his party or to help himself when he exhibits a Democratic spot.
 We must admit that our regard or respect for milk-and-water statesmen and politicians is not of the highest. A man who professes or claims to be- long to one party and will adopt the policies of the opposite party whenever he has something to gain by 1t. is not to our liking. An open political ene- my we can respect-and watch. but one who is neither an avowed enemy nor a known friend is not our sort. If Roosevelt believes in the doctrines of the Republicans he should adhere to them and try to carry them out. If he is not willing to do this he had better quit them and be honest. "A Democrat in spots" may please some folks. but we are not one of them.

COMING TO HIS SENSES,

We can very well understand, says The charleston News and Courier. that
 the President is much disturbed by present conditions. only a few weeks ago. It will be remembered. in his speech at Nashville. Tenn. he split the welkin with his denunciation of the malefactors. and declared that while he knew very we'll there might be some suffering on account of his prose cution of the bad trusts" the country would be all the better for it after the furry had passed. The furry" began almost immediately after the speech in Nashville, and was probably hast ened by the Presidents bold utterances on that occasion, and no sooner had 1t fairly started than the President began to take counsel with the ''malefactors of great wealth" as to what could be done to reassure the people of the in herent financial soundness of the coun- try. It was greatly to their credit that they did not sulk in their tents, but for patriotic or predatory reasons came gal Iantly to the rescue of the administra-

tion. and by their help and the mas terful tactics of Secretary corteiyou. who poured millions Of dollars into the New York banks. the situation was temporarily relieved at least and the country enabled to go on with its bus mess in limping fashion. 1t Is true. but with sufficient strength to rea- waken some degree of public confi- dence. It Is reported now that Mir J. Pierpont Morgan Is organizing a syndi- cate for the purpose of taking over from s25,ooo,ooo to s1oo.ooo,ooo of the new Treasury Issues. and it is expected that conditions will so greatly improve by the time Congress meets next month that new financial legislation may be undertaken without further embarrass- ment.
 How the Roosevelt panic will affect Mir. Roosevelt's political ambitions re- mains to be seen. That he will ac- cept any part of the blame for the present financial trouble cannot be inf- agined; that he will get the credit for it there can be no doubt. The coun- try was never more prosperous than 1t now is. but capital is tinlid and the people are losing their faith in the Big Stick method of running this Govern ment. What is needed as much as any thing else to restore tranquility to the business and commercial world is a new deal at Washington. One ex- pertinent of the Roosevelt sort ought to be enough to satisfy the dramatic instincts of out people for at least a hundred years.

MORE ABOUT PEANUTS.

"ff,' says The Boston Globe, "that
 Illinois physician who Is now emulatins the example of the boy who stood on the burning deck, eating peanuts by the peck. succeeds in carrying out his purpose of living sixty days on a pea nut diet, it is doubtful whether his ex- pertinent will have accomplished any useful or instructive object. Composed as 1t is of nearly all the elements in the vegetable and mineral Kingdoms, the human body needs something of
 them all for it's proper nutrition. A man might sustain life for sixty days, or even for sixty weeks. ore single article of diet. but that would by no means prove that his whole body
 was properly nourished during that time. These dietary stunts whether they are performed on peanuts, beans, onions or sauerkraut. have little prac- tical value except as showing what may be done in an emergency. If na- ture had intended man to five on any one kind of food exclusively. it is safe to say that the other kinds would not have been so bountifully provided"
 Of all the faddists we have among us, the food crank is most persistently in evidence. If these faddists were confined to the common people it would not be so surprising and perplexing. but the doctors and the scientists have a fair representation among them. One will insist that a. certain article of diet Is all that is needed for man to subsist on, and that he can live and comes another who pronounces 1t all bosh and points out something entirely different as the one and absolutely in- dispensable article of food for human ity. And so they go on, differing, dis putting and crossing each others path until the average layman sees nothing for it but to eat whatever he wants and can get ana as much of it as he desires.
 We have been hearing, quite great deal of late about this peanut fad. It has been held up by some as possess- ing all the essential elements of human food, while others refuse to see any thing good in it whatever. Suppose this Illinois doctor lives and thrives for two months on peanuts alone what does 1t prove? Merely that it agrees with him. and that Is all that will be certain about it. Another ex- perimenter might try 1t and derive no beneft. even if he should live through the trial.
 All human beings are not constituted alike. for which humanity has cause to be thankful. All do not relish the same diet nor will a like regimen agree with all, or be enjoyed by them. As The Globe says, if one food were most agreeable and beneficial to all human beings. what would be the need of so much variety fin the foods prepared for our use? If one food were best for all people, 1t would be economy to pro-, duce that food and let all eat 1t. We have about been forced to the conclu- sion that the best plan is for all to eat what they prefer. when it is obtain able. and let experience guide them in it's use.

LEARNING THE RACE ISSUE.

They're getting a fair view of the seamy side of the race issue in the North these days. says The Chattanoo- ga Times. There have been a number of murders and criminal assaults by negroes in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York recently. the atrocity and diabolism of which are creating widespread concern. The Brooklyn Eagle tells of an incident in that city: A negro robbed a lady in the street of her peck etbook; he was chased by a policeman. whom he killed with a revolver he had concealed in his pocket, and then "a mob gathered and 1t was with difficulty that the police reserves saved the murderer from being lynch ed." At each of these recurring crimes the mob has nearly lynched" the pers petrator. from which we may reason- ably guess that the time is not far away when the lynchers are going to succeed. The daredevil recklessness of the criminal negro is somewhat of a revelation to our Northern friends, and as they more and more get expe- rlence of it. the better arc they going to understand the Southern method of dealing with it. Gradually is our race problem being transformed from sec tional theory into a national condition!

New York TypOthetae Fill Striking

 New York, Nov. 21.-The United Typothetae of America report that Rogers & Co.,. one of the New York Typothetae firms whose press operators shave struck for the eight hour work day, have filled the places of the strik- CTS with girls. and will employ girls to do this work in the future.
 No new strikes have occurred. as both sides are awaiting the decision in the Federal and local courts on the contempt proceedings. John MacKin= ley, Secretary of the United Typothe- tae, in speaking of the situation, said:
 ''The decisions of the courts will de- termine whether we can run our own shops. If we have to concede the eight hour day demand. it will mean the reorganization of our shops on an eight hour basis. I am not given to making prophecies, but I can safely predict that in such a case tbere will be more suspensions of printing con. cerns in the next six months than have taken place within the last six years"

Wonder what's the matter with Sat urn? If that planet has been famous for anything in its past 1t has been its rings. It has worn them like a halo of glory and the astronomers have had many a discussion and controversy as to their composition, arrangement and use. but so far as we remember they have remained in their proper po- sitlon. Now we are told that they "ap- pear to be twisted out of shape" and nobody seems to know what has done it. If the old planet loses It's rings entirely it will no longer be regarded with wonder and admiration of former years.

Editor The Advertiser: a
 Your editorial day before yesterday morning about the bond in the railroad litigation should relieve any shipper of Anxiety about getting his money. f the cases go against the railroads. But what is the use of trying to answer obtectors who don't care what they say. and are trying case in the court. by making stump speeches elsewhere? Ev- cry intelligent person knows the State can no more prescribe the terms of an injunction bond in the United States Court than Congress can prescribe the terms of Q bond a State Court should take in issuing an injunction. State laws cannot prescribe the pr1cedure in a Federal Court in equity. It is abso- lutely silly to say that bond taken Tn the United States Court in an inc junction case is invalid because 1t does not conform to State statute. M.
