JACK TAR's APOLOGY.

An old sailor who during his shore
leave had learned to ride a bicycle, was
working rapid passage along a busy
thoroughfare when he collided with a
young cyclist coming from the opposite
direction.
Fortunately there was no personal
damage, and after picking himself up
the sailor proceeded to apologize as fol-
lows: I'm sure as I ought to be scut-
tied for it, young sir, but l couldn't
get your signals more'n if we were feel
ing through fogbank. l was BLOWN
for you to pass to port, an steerin' my
course accordin'. Just as l was go1n' TO
dip my pennant an salute proper your
craft refused to obey her rudder, an
you struck me for'ard. AS l listed /
tried to jibe, but I capsized, keel up, an
put you flounderin' in the wreckage."
By this time there was an interest
ed audience and th&youth was mental
ly debating whether he should run from
a supposed lunatic or ask for an inter-
prefer.

Tales Worth Telling !:


One of the best-known judges in Ala
bama, famed for his severity and his
uncompromising loyalty to the tradi-
lions of procedure, had occasion recent
ly to try a case in which one of the
witnesses happened to be an actress of
no small popularity in the South.
1t CHANGED that the nature of her evil
dence was such that the usual question
about her age was not likely to be
omitted so when she came to the stand
his Honor told the court clerk to sus-
pend action for a moment; then, turn
ing to the atcress, he demanded:
Madam, how old are you
"Twenty-six,' replied the witness,
who is SO if she is a day.
Very WELL" said the judge politely.
Il asked you that Question because, if
l hadn't it would surely have been
asked you when the attorney for the
defense cross-eXamined you. And, now
that you have told us your age, do you
swear to tell the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth?"

rights (civil, political and conStitu-
tionaD are cannot and will not long
suffer themselves to be denied them,
without eXhausting every available
resource they may command, even
though the final one be rebellion and
war! It is apparent that the fear of
this final outcome y is gradually TAX
ing hold of the restless politicians
of the South. All kinds of subter-
fuges are resorted to to conceal the
real anxiety that possesses them.
They fear the impact of numbers, and
are trying to bring about a sort OF
political slavery, which will forever
shackle the suffrage rights of the
ever-increasing hordes of blacks cit
liens. The cry of white suprem
acy" and mob violence and disfran
! chisement is resorted to for the sol,
purpose of forever removing the Ne
gro from participation in the polite
of the South, and only prove the Ne
gros Importance, politically, if al
lowed to exercise his rights of fran
chise. Because of these efforts t,
suppress the Negro. politically, it i
hard to determine just what part h
plays or how far he is considered
factor in the political equation.
Ex-Governor William A. McCor
de of West Virginia, in discussing
the question, asks: "How can we re
move our political complexities, Civ
the Negro his franchise, preserve tn
Constitution, and at the same tim
, not imperil our civilization" ?" He an
swers his own question by saying
seems to him 'the best way, by fai
is to adopt an honest and inaexibl
educational and property basis, ad
: ministered impartiality to white an
r black"
