 Morning came. and with the first streak of light in the east. the young farmer called up his negroes and all hands hastened to the cornfelds.
 The coons were there all right: the unsuspecting little animals had come as usual in the night. and had part,- ken freely of the corn which had been treated with the morphine and 10, therc they were. on fence rails on stumps and huddled up by the roots of trees, all safely clasped in the arms of Nor pheus. The negroes immediately be- gan slaughter of the sleeping coons and when the work was over when not counted them; the number killed was 999. The corn was saved and there was great rejoicing.
 The gentleman had his negroes to skin the coons, and later carried the skins to New Orleans and sold them for good price; with the money thus. obtained, he bought a negro, whom he named Coon.
 The name seemed such an appro- priate one. that 1t grew in popular Ia vor. until 1t camef toa be ia genuine term applied to all negroes. Even coon songs have sprung into. pop ularitya and are sung in, our parlors. We have all heard Little Alabama Coon" andl t.4fif [ coons Look Alike To Mo" 'a55a'

FOR THE SAKE
 OF HIS SON Joseph Chamberlain to Stay in Politics. SOCIALISM AND POLITICS Worlds Gathering of Women
 Suffragists. Professor Comes Forward With New Information on Apes and Men and . Their Relation-Darl Out
 look for Cabmen.
BY w. HAMILTON RHODEs.

London. Feb. 20.-The true reason why the Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain Is to stand again for West Birming- ham has not been rightly understood. It Is most pathetic illustration of his devotion to his eldest son, Austen Chamberlain. It Is, in fact, to pre- serve Austen Chamberlain's political life. There have been unmistak able evidences of late that the tariff re- form leaders would live to shelve MT. Austen. should tariff reform major ity be returned at the next election It is to frustrate that design that Mir. Joseph Chamberlain intends to Keep lic life. If he retired, MT, Austen might as well eeffct political suicide. MT. Chamberlain's announcement has accordingly been received without en- thusiasm among tariff reformers. They even go so far as to suggest that he is tagging superfluous on the public stage. But though there is not the re- motest probability that he can ever be seen in Parliament or at any pub lie meeting again, he is resolved to see what he considers justice done to his son. The family claim Is for the Chanoellorship of the Exchequer; but q very prominent member of the party recently said that the only Chancel- lorship Mir. Austen would get again would be the Chancellorship of the Duchy of Lancaster, if he was lucky This new development adds apprecia- bly to the interest with which the. Tory complications and feuds will be watched.
