Manning is from an old Morse word
Notwithstanding a brave or val
liant man, and one of the first forms
Of the name was Mannin; another or
biography vas Nannyng.
One historian gives a Saxon origin
er the family, which he calls ancient
and NOBLE" according to him, Man
hing was the name of a town in Sax
bny. and from thence the family OF
Great Britain sprung. Others make
Mannheim, Germany, the cradle of the
Family, and begin its history with
aanulph, or Rudolph de Manning,
Count Palatine, who, having married
Elgida, aunt to King Harold l. of Eng
land, had a grant of land in Kent.
His name is also written de Mann
heim-Rudolph of Mannheim.
His place in Kent was Downs Court,
and there the Mannings have been
, power ever since. Simon de Man
hing. called a grandson OF Ranulph,
was the first of the English barons to
AXE up the cross and go forth to
he holy wars. He was a companion
pr Richard L., Cour de Lion. and
znighted on the battlefield; we can
easily see where the cross of the
coat-of-arms illustrated, m from.

craven upon tombstones of the Man

have always been well represented. In

PAY FOR THEIR
NEGLIGENCE.

The directors of one of the Morse
bans in New York have settled a
suit brought against them on behalf
of the stockholders by paying over a
large sum Of money. The incident Is
worth noting as showing there Is some
sort of negligence which the dummy"
director cannot commit without fac
ing the possibility of having to 90
down in his own pockets ana make
good the deficit in trust funds which
he is chosen to protect.
In the Morse failure, as in the more
recent disgraceful loOting of the
Northern Bank of New York, there
was the same old story of 'implicit
confidence" in somebody who did not
deserve IT
No one expects directors to keep 50
close an oversight on the affairs OF a
bank that nobody can deceive them
They must trust some persons. But
bank failures too often disclose
negligence on the part of directors
which Is so inexcusable and so fragrant
that It invites deception and dis
honesty. The most cuIpabIe feature
is that they pretend to be watchmen
and give a false sense Of security to
people who depend upon their good
faith.
No man - compelled TO Re a bank

accepts position OF trust, which he
should properly fill or else get out.

selves on questions of apPortionment,
popular election of Senators, and the
like, have come to recognize in this
ghost of the negro question the most
effective way to make trouble for
Democrats
Such project of indireetion and in
sincerity viii not serve to Kill the
movement for popular election of
Senators. We suspect that such an
amendment as Senator Depew viii
propose cannot muster enough Repub-
liean votes to hitch it to the resolu-
tion. It certainly ought not. The
Senate ought 20 have maniiness
enough to go on record on this ques-
ton OF popular election of Senators.
If gentlemen believe the people are
not in favor of the reform, let them
so vote II they believe the people are
for it, they ought to vote for it, and
If hey refuse so to vote the people
ought to have a chance to call them
to an accounting.
Trickery and smaTtness viii not
serve to prevent the people getting
what they want in this matter. II the
Senate continues to oppose it, We shall
before many years have a convention
of the States called to subr,it ameni-
ments to the Constitution; and then
some real radicaiism will show itself,
of a character to give shudder to gen
tlemen whose confidence IN popular
government Is so weak that the fear
the masses should not be trus ed to
choose their Senators.

PNEUMONIA GERM CROWS
FAT AND PROSPEROUS.

A few blocks from Dupont Circle,
in the heart of the most fashionable
section of Washington, on corner
where two mansion-lined streets inter
sect, stands a Pretentious apartment
house. Within 1t are housed forty OF
fftg~ef the most intelligent and highly
cultured families Of the District.
Here, # anywhere, we should ex-
pect TO find exemplif. a mode of life
calculated 70 garner from the world
every benefit that science, invention.
and intelligence have developed The
last word in the niceties Of eiviIiza-
ton should, naturally, be encountered
within these white stone walls.
Right here, however, is where the
natural conclusion goes of on a
tangent.
If any one had passed that apart
ment house at i O'Clock this morning
and had taken the trouble to examine
its windows, he would have been
amazed at what he beheld- On one
side of the building he would have
counted sixty windows; on the other
side, sixty-eight- He would nave
found fifty-nine of the sixty windows
on one side shut tight against the
night air; he would have found sixty
SIX % the sixty-eight windows on the
other side IN the same condition.
It IS such a spectacle as this that

makes him wax fat and prosperous every
year as the atmosphere begins to cool

A Wall FROM THE PARLOR
CAR PORTER.

When the porter comes along and
takes down your overcoat and brushes
it in your face, transferring the dust
from the aforesaid garment to the
Just brushed garments of others sit
ting around awaiting an opportunity
to escape, should you tip him2
Have you ever put yourself in the
Porter's place:
From Chicago, the headquarters of
the porter's profession, comes The
news that tips are getting 10 be

$50 a month, instead of IS cents a
day, which the company has PAID

incomes.
Once IN a while they are tipped hand
somely, probably by some get-rich-
quick expert, who has pulled of q big
deal in New York OF Chicago OF Bos-
tor But the porter complains: More
than half the women never tip. and
some of the men viii ride 1000 or
5000 miles and give di-uo or per

brush protests that he shined thirty
pairs of shoes on d recent trip and got
nary a sou Naturally ne kicked, but
the spokesman for the passengers ex-
planned that it was not ethical to tip.
When excuses are drawn as fine as
this, leaving the porters suffering
beyond their depth, the only thing
left for them to do Is to strike for
more pay. Hence this charge of the
5000.
1t looks as If the issue might have
to go Jefore the Interstate Commerce
Commission for settlement. Strictly
speaking, the passenger is not obliged
to tip. His ticket entities him, pre-
sumably, TO whatever attention he

SENATORIAL ELECTION AND
THE NEGRO VOTE.

Senator Depew. 1t Is announced, will
introduce the question of negro dis
reimbursement in order TO embarrass
Southern Senators, when the question
of popular election Of Senators comes
up. Senators OF the conservative per
suasion do not want to submit the
popuIar-election resolution to the
States, and yet they do not want to
vote against it because they know
that most of the people favor It.
So, casting about for a means 20
make embarrassment and eompIica-
tons, the fine cid plan has been hit
upon of dragging IN the negrO's dis
reimbursement IN the Southern States
through an ameHdment that, If
adopted BY Republican votes, would
then compel Southern Democrats to
vote against the whole popuIar-eIec

DIRECT PRIMARY WOULD
HAVE SCOTCHED SHEEHAN.

William F. Sheehan's formal an
nOuncement OF his candidacy for the
United States Senate, to succeed Sen
ator Chaunoey N. DePew, whose term
of Office expires on March 4, 1911, has
already served to crystalline the op-
position to him which everyone knew
would develop. Men prominen in the
Democratic ranks are hssteriug TO
protest that the party, by PRINTING
the election of a man whose name is
synonymous With the worst features
Of machine politics, viii throw away
the fruits of the November victory.
10 one believes for moment that
the Democrats, in the stirring days
Of the iate campaign, would have
dased TO 50 before the people with
the name Of Sheehan as their svowed
candidate for the Senate The people
knew his record only too well, an,
voting directly on that record they
would not only have refused to IN
dorse his candidacy but might have
beaten the party that stood for ii.
And yet, by indirection, by choice of
the General Assembly, he may be
chosen TO represent the great State
OF New York in the United States
Senate.
