have built up the scattered pagan tribes

India; a mosque has been built in Liver
pool and another Is projected for New

progress many wOrld-eyils are scatter

EDWARDS POOR LUCK.

Probably no owner ever had such
persistent run of bad luck as King Ed
ward IN the early years Of mis- racing
career. At his first modest appearance
on a race course. thirty-seven years
ago, his horse. Champion. had the mis-
fortune 10 fall early in the race, and.
although he made a game effort TO re-
cover lost ground, he could finish only
second. Six years later-at his second
appeI-ance-at the Newmarket July
meeting his horse, AIep, was badly
beaten by Lord StTathnairn's Avowal; ;
and II was not until 1850 that LeOnidas
u. ridden by Capt. Wentworth Hope
tombstone. scored his first victory in
the Aldsrshot cup. Six years more
elapsed. making fifteen years in all from
his racing debut. according TO the Dun
dee Advertiser, before the royal cOlors
were carried to victory for the first
time IN fiat racing, when. amid a scene
Of great enthusiasm, Counterpart, rid
den by Archer, won maiden plate at

THE CROSS IN JEWELRY.

A generation ago. nearly every wOm-
an possessed a small cross in gold. in
Jewels. or in onyx and gold, as a piece
Of jewelry. II was worn as a brooch,
or as a pendant to a chain
II was substituted in after years by
the locket, which has held sway in
every metal and in all kinds Of jewels,
precious and semi-preciOus
Now crosses are back in fashion. They
are slender and are not OF the Maltese
variety which was in such dominant
fashion for awhile.
Often Il is only a sold wire. holding
diamond or vivid semi-preCious stones.
The pale aquamarine is also "A fayorite
stone to use.
Others are in plain gold with the
monogram and often the date OF the
gift engraved at back.

TO the black and gold enameled bracelet
Of our grandmothers. the black and gold

In advising the Democrats to make

cans are weakest For not only are

field OF endeavor. they all bow to the
conviction that whatever is is wrong.
Tho brilliant suggestion emanating

ment, of so many treasured associa-
tons. of so much that lies closest to

ton OF II is piece Of narrow gauge
absurdity. The words OF the South's
national anthem. whether good"
words or not, are SO thoroughly en-
personal, that 1t would be an atrocity
to take them away. There is no logic
to answer sentiment.
OF far more interest than the silly
such comment upon them as we find.
for instance. In the Rochester Democrat
and Chronicle, Why, i, asks, does a
Northern concert audience greet
Dixie" with pandemonium?
1t is because we know what Dixie
means; because its associations stir the
blood and awaken human sympathy.
because the memory of the great con-
flict brings thrills without bitterness:
because cut of the struggle came a
united nation, each part adnirng the
valor of the other, snd both parts
now raliyins around the same flag.
Don't mutilate Dixie" II means much
II is apart of our history. The North,
somehow, has come to regard 1t as a
national asset. and would not want to
see the starch taken out of ii by liter
AIRY meddling and manipulation.
The words that'were good enough
to sweep over Mason and Dixon's line
and become national asset" are good
enough to keep.

MEN. NOR PRINCIPLES.

The Dispatch of Yesterday
edi.orislly urged the Democratic State
Convention at Roanoke TO consecrate
its energies to discussing principles
not men.
The telegraphic reports from Roam
oke in The Timas-Dispatch this morn
Ing show that principles received but
seAnt attention at the hands of the
delegates yesterday, while the name OF
Mr.. Bryan was at all times the object
Of profound interest.
In the face of this blindness to what
appears to be at once sound policy and
inherited duty. The Times-pispatch
ventures to reiterate that IL the DEM
ocratio party, in this State or else
where, has grown Indifferent TO prin-
cipies and voluntarily become the ad-
tunct of an individual, it has forsworn
its own heritage and abiured It's cardi-
nal reason for existence.
