A DIFFERENT OPINION.

am certain that was grea ly benefit.
ed by participated in this debate.
An editorial NEGRO Progress" that
appeared ON the second day following
the debate, to.wit, sunday March LIST,
in the columns Of 1.-THE Register and
Leader" one Of the leading white day
lies in the middle. west, written by the
hand OF the Hon Harvey Iugham. q
white nan, who graduated from the
State University Of Iowa, almost thirty
years ago, who is a profound student OF
the Negro question who was present
amp near the debate; and than whom
few II any men OF either race are bet
ter prepared to sly what the effect OF
such q discussion would be upon the
pu bile mind.
Mr.. Draine suggests over . question
mark that ''dossibly the parties to the
discussion are in q position to defend
their couse?"
1t is my opinion that our action
which Is SO harshly and so unjustly
criticised by him needs no defensing;
but, since on the other hand the edit o.
rial above referred to highly commends
said action, I desire 10 set out in full a
portion OF W bich reads as follows:
"NEGRo PROGRESS 1T is TO be noted
that Negro orators appealing to Negro
junges before Negro audience for the
repeal Of the Fifteenth amendment
should be not only given cordial hear
ing, but be awarded the decision on
the merits Of the debate.
1t is sign of the times, and particu-
Isrly of the progress of the Negro, that
such a question could be debated with
entire compo>ure, in an able and schol-
arly way. by leaders OF the race and be
passed upon without heat or prej"dite,"
This it seems to me is conclusive
proof that the writer of that editorial
at least was not impressed as was Mr..
ID aine, that our debate had brouy ht q
great calamity upon the entire race.
Very respectfully.

He was much embarrassed. 1t seemed.

He hurried to the nearest keeper and

Bone and cartilage enter SO large
ly into the structure of the nose
and determine its characteristics
that it undergoes little percephble
change, as a rule, With the lapse OF
years. The brow becomes wrinkled,
and crows feet gather round the
eyes, which themselves gradually
grow dim as time rolls on. Cheeks
lose the bloom which cosmetics can
not replace and lips their fullness
and color. The chin, dimpled in
youth, develops angularities OF
globularities, as the case may bs,
and tho eyebrows become heavy
with the crop Of many years
growth. The nose shows no mark
comparable to these familiar facial
indications. of the approach of old

the ears, as a rule. show tho fewest
