At the Turn Of the Tide.

It was asserted by Aristotle that no
animal dies near the sea except at the
ebbing of the tide. This idea in some
form or another has been popular for
centuries.
Such a notion, l find, still exists at
Gravesend. An old salt who used to
sit by a dying man in an ale house on
the shore of the Thames told me he
noticed my patient was always worse
at the turn of the tide, and then got
better after the tide had turned. Read
ers of Dickens cannot forget the &C.
count in David Copperfeld" Of Mr..
Barkis going out with the tide"
According to Aristotle and Mr.. Peg
gotty, 1t Is at the ebbing Of the tide
that death always occurs But at
Gravesend. / am told, 1t does not mat
ter whether the tide Is at the ebb or
dow; it is Just at the turn OF the tide
that death occurs. Il have often seen
1t happen, SIR" an old shrimper said
to me quite neutrality-suspicious. in

CRAZE
DiSFlGURlNG ONES SKIN NOW
THE PROPER THING.
Americans In Europe Seem to Have
Gone Mad Over the Subject
According to an Authority
In London.

Americans have gone tattoo mad
Such is the inference to be drawn
from a recent eoc-sIsati5n se& AL
fred South, a famous English and con
tinental "tattooist. According to the
artist the rich have stolen the thunder
of the poor. The practice of covering
the body with elaborate designs, which
was supposed to be the special weak
ness of the low-class sailor, has as
cended the social ladder and is now |
the amusement of the aristocracy.
Certain ~well-known Americans, II
we are to believe Mr.. Smith, would
present the appearance of animated
picture galleries could we see them in
the nude. Their backs, chests, legs
and arms are covered with crouching
tigers, poised snakes and more or less
beautiful women. The son of one OF
the largest watch manufacturers in
the United States, who is many times
a millionaire, had a fac smile of his
fathers particular brand of timepiece
tattooed on his chest by Mr.. South.
He had the hands showing the hour to
be exactly IL and remarked that no
matter where he was he could always
refer to 1t at exactly that time of day
and always correct his fallible time
piece.
Many Americans have commits
stoned Mr.. South to tattoo copies of
pictures by their favorite artist on
their shoulders, chests or backs. In
this respect Charles Dana Gibson east
ly leads the field as the most popular
American draughtsman. One Ameri.
can millionaire, a crack rifle shot and
premier horse owner, Is the proud pos
SCISSOR of a Gibson Girl" on his left
shoulder.
It seems that many Americans have
had their full names tattooed on their
wrists and forearms. MI. South says
he has many American women as Gus
toners. They are more sentimental
than the sterner sex, according to the
artist, and they run to names, or the
private crests Of their sweethearts.
The work is usually done On the legs.
but many of the fairer sex are having
elaborate designs executed on their
backs. In this as in other walks of
life fair woman has lived up to her
reputation for a chameleonlike state
of mind, for the artist declares he has
several times changed the name of a
sweetheart for women customers.
The tattooing craze appears to be
even more advanced in England and
on the continent than in the United
States. Here is seems to have touched
even the highest rung of the social
ladder. The prince of Wales himself
is said to have some most artistic
work on his arm, while the crown
princess of Denmark, Lady Cornwall
lis West and members of the royal
family of Russia are said to be de-
7 voices of the craze. Some of them are
ever said to have become adept at the
art itself.
Among society at the present time
problems In bridge are especially pop
ular as subjects for the tattoo artist.
One oma recently had "her, last will
and testament" in four colors and
many Celebrations. tattooed on her
back. Religious devotees have pc.
culiar hobbies, and a particularly
pious old lady recently had a likeness
of her priest tattooed on her arm by

Against Race.

PHILADELPHIA, April NEGRO
bishops. editors and other leaders of
the race met here today in what is
called a national convention" and
will go on record as opposing Presi-
dent Roosevelt's administration and
Secretary Taft's candidacy for the
presidency. The leaders In the move
ment are Bishop Alexander Walters
of the African Methodist Zion church,
the Rev. DR.. William H. Scott, presi-
dent OF the Negro Suffrage league,
and William Monroe Trotter, presi-
dent of the New England Constitu-
ton and Suffrage league. President
Roosevelt's actions are denounced as
"a fragrant collision between Re
publican president and the Southern
Democrats" Among the denuncia-
tory statements of the leaders in to-
days convention are the following:
The positive and notorious hostile
attitude of the government of our re-
public toward its citizens of color un-
der the present republican admins
tration and the approach of the party
nomination conventions in the year
1908 produce crisis for one-eighth
of the citizenship of these United
States of America. The open alliance
between the president and the nulli-
fiers of the constitution in the south
constitutes the most fragrant collus-
ion between Republican president
and the southern democrats since the
emancipation of the American slaves
as years ago, save In the case of An
drew Johnson at the close OF the war
or of Rutherford b. Hayes at the
close of reconstruction. But 1t has
remained for the present chief execu-
tive of the United States to prescribe
in official documents an inferior grade
of education for one class of citizens,
and to brand that class as concealers
OF criminals and rapists; while the
defaming and discharge in dis
grace of more than a hundred sold
iers, all colOred, without trial or
chance to be heard in their own de-
Tense, is a denial upon colored citi-
zens unprecedented in our country s
history.
THE placing of the nations sane
ton upon the segregation of citizens
for and because of color in public
travel but completes the federal NAL
treatment of the colored citizen under
the present administration, leaving
him stripped of rights, branded and
in contempt."
