Action on 1t

Berlin, Dec. The constitutional
debate in the reichstag today wa
notable for the unanimous view ex-
pressed by all the Liberal parties,
and supported by the powerful Gent
er party, that some change in the
constitution was desirable to the end
of making the ministers responsible
to the country.
The motions brought in, however,
varied considerably in their phraseol-
ogy, and because of the existing par
ty jealousies it does not seem prob
able an agreement regarding final
formulation will be reached.
The present plan is to refer the
FIVE resolutions on the subject to q
special committee for report, this
step to be taken after the speakers
have threshed out the subject in the
house for three days This arrange
ment will delay the drawing up of
the final and definite motion until
after the Christmas vacation, which
begins Dec. 10, and lasts until the
middle of January.

Chicago Dentist Ends His

an apparently uncomfortable melan-
cholia, which has haunted him since
the suicide of his wife on an ILL
omened day, Friday, Nov. Is, last,
DR.. Randolph F. Hass, Lexington
avenue dentist, today ended his life
by swallowing poison. He was kneel-
ing on the grave of his wife in Wood
lawn cemetery as he drank the fatal
potion and a Waterman, who, some
days ago, had prevented his suicide
with a revolver on the same spot,
was unable to reach him in time to
prevent the accomplishment of the
same purpose today. I'M
Dr.. Haas died within a few mo-
ments. One of his closest friends, DR..
Philip Goldstein, upon hearing of the
tragedy, told of the heart-broken ex-
istence DR.. Haas has led since the
death of his wife; that he had daily
visited and placed flowers on the
grave, had closed his home and gone
to live with his sister-in-law and had
neglected his practice.
His professional work, it was said,
had been largely dropped for some
time before his wife's death, because
Of an apparently insane Jealousy on
her part toward his patients. For
more than a fortnight before shoot
ing herself, she had compelled him
to remain away from his Office, and it
was as he was leaving their apart
ments to fill some important engage
ments that she took her life Mrs.
Haas was remarkably beautiful wo-
man and the two had been married
but short time.

ANOTHER RACE QUESTION

A colored woman, writing to the
Grand Forks Herald, sets forth what
seems to be well founded grievance
and yet one that it is difficult to sug-
gest means for adjusting. She says
in her communication:
81 want to ask what is the matter
with the hotels of Grand Forks; are
they drawing the color line?
81 arrived in Grand Forks at
seven-thirty Monday evening, went
to a hotel; they were full; might have
bed if 1 paid for two. / tried five
other hotels. I finally went back to
the first hotel and paid for two beds
and there was only one in the room
and a very poor one at that, on the
third floor.
n 81 was down on business, and also
was in the Herald Office, and paid up
a subscription for the Herald.
I did not get my business attend
ed to in time to come home so after
being out all day, on the streets most
of the time, I went back to the hotel
where had stayed; got a bed but
had to pay two prices for it again.
We are taxpayers of Grand Forks
county. My husband has been in
this county for over twenty-five years
and have lived here for twenty-five
years. >ss
The evident deduction, from her
letter is that the hotel did not want
her patronage and took this means of
discouraging it. And yet the proba-
bility is that she conducted herself
properly, required no more care or
attention than the average lodger,
and paid for what she got in the
same kind of money. She was citi-
zen and entitled to the equal pro-
lection of the laws and to deal and
trade on equal terms with anyone
else, and yet she finds that because OF
her color she is not wanted in ho-
tel, where white people constitute the
total patronage, save in such rare in
stances as hers. It all suggests the
inference that much of our boosted
equality is a myth, even with our
selves and that the color line does moi
have to be drawn--it draws itself. AS
to a remedy for her grievance, it is
not easy to suggest one. But it tends
to prove that it is only because OF
the absence of the necessary that
