Hasty Conclusions.

The announcement of Dr. Charles Wardell Stiles, the discoverer Of the bool1worm, that the United States IS violating the laws of nature by per hitting the black and white races to live side by side upon the same soil, appears to be one of those nasty and unsupported statements which are fast bringing the name of science into dlS- repute. Biology, as the moderns un- derstand it, is a comparatively recent science and the existence Of the book- worm is a very recent discovery con- corning which it is not in the least possible that the last word has been said Neither do the contentious of pr. Stiles seem altogether probable in the light of history. The extreme inn portance which he attaches to differ ence of color has a decidedly southern bias 1t has not yet been established beyond peradventure that the physlcai differences between the white, red, vel low and black races ars as radical as he supposes. Time and fuller eXper1- ments may of course demonstrate the truth of his assertions; but at present they obviously rest upon insufficient data.
 This being the case, most people will regard silence as the highest wisdom in il until more accurate knowledge IS obtained. The negro problem is al ready an almost overwhelming one for the south, and it is as hard upo1 the white man as it is upon the black. It is not possible for the United States to adopt Russian methods and eXpel the unhappy creatures who are Aneri can citizens by no fault of their own. It is even less possible for the negroes to drive out the whites. For good or evil, the two races must continue to struggle towards a better understand ing side by side. If the negro does entail upon the white man hideous diseases which his ancetors brought from Africa and the white man in turn lays the curse of his own inherit ed maladies upon the negro, there is no remedy for the situation but that vigorous sanitation which Dr. Stiles so valuable prevntive measure in any case, and those who are giving fortunes towards promoting it are doing admir- able service to the race
 None the less it would be both hu- mane and scientific to suspend judg- ment upon the question of the color line until more facts are at hand Most southerners perceive the negro to be necessary factor in the agricul- tural development of the country and they do not willingly accept substi- tutes. If the negro brought the book worm the Italian. who is asSuredlyNa white man, is already credited with i'm mporting pellagra- This accusation lacks confirmation and should be treat ed with great caution. There are al- ways too many people who are prone to race prejudice, and the utmost care should be taken to avoid exciting it. Bridgeport Telegram

Eoo.bsiI Reform.

The fourth annual convention of the Intercollegiate AtheItic association of the United States, at which 77 colleges and universities are reresented, has met in New York to discuss needed re forms in football, which will insure the perpetuity of the game. This con- vention probably only aims to sound the feelings of the different institu- tions, so as to form a basis on which the rules committee, which will do the real work. can act
 Certain of the colleges have suggest ed that the Canadian rugby game be substituted for the American game, as now played. This idea probably will not be taken very seriously by the committee. The Canadian form of the game is too tame for the average lover of American football. The reform will probably hinge on limiting the numb of men that may be used in the inter ference and thereby tending to put 8 auietus on the mass play, so-called- West Point. keenly interested in a change in the game, has been foremost in urging the adoption of this rule. The convention would do well to boil down the different suggestions which are presented to it, so as to be able to give the rules committee a clear and comprehensive idea of what the col leges as a whole, desire--Buffalo Ex- press

BRAVE LOVE.

Behind the Counter Philosophy.

It was in a drug store near Eff teenth and Arch streets recently a man entered to buy a few stamps for a package which he desired to mail. Eight cents worth of postage was re- quired, whereupon the clerk handed out two fOUr-cent stamps.
 Huh. does this tank town have stamps like that? I never thought it, said the buyer.
 Later in a conversation with a man that overheard him it was found that he came from a small town in the south.
 The man behind the counter said:

-Four years ago suffered severely with a terrible eczema. being 8 mass of sores from head to feet and for six weeks confined to my bed. During that time I suffered continual torture from itching and burning. After being given up by my doctor I was advised to try the Cuticura Remedies. After the first bath with Cutioura Soap and applica- tion of Cuticura Ointment enjoyed the first good sleep during my entire illness. l also used Cuticura Resolvent and the treatment was continued for about three weeks. At the end of that time I was able to be about the house, entirely cured, and have felt no i'll effects since. l would advise any person suffering from any form of skin trouble to try the Cuticura Remedies as know what they did for me.

 ''Well,'' said the one who sells the liquor T will take the egg and treat you to a drink

 Well. I allus drink sherry with an egg in it.''

Virginia will stand by the statue of Lee, as it stood by the man Lee, and if the marble figure of the south's great warrior, recently placed in Statuary hall in the capitol at Washington, be required to be withdrawn, the state, according to those in authority in Vir- ginia, will withdraw that of George Washington. Opposition to the Lee statue by former union soldiers caused congress to postpone vote on the question. It is probable the statue will be allowed to remain without a. formal acceptance until the objections have subsided. This has been done before. -Meriden Journal

Joseph Cham nbertain, in a speech in Birmingham in 1902. answered his critics thus:
 Gentlemen. what I have said. have said I withdraw nothing. I qualify nothing. I defend nothing
 This Is the story of Chamberlain's s career It has mattered nothing to him that he is now fighting in the camp which once he charged so valiantly. It has been no part of his political creed to be consistent, to have a set of principles to which he fastened his hopes and aims. He withdrew nothing. because he did not have to. He de- tended nothing, because defense had meant admission, confession, the com puision to apologize.
 The battle now waging in England is not all a struggle between lord and common, but is one wherein an old man. a paralytic moves the pieces of one set of adyersaries- If he wins he dies to the pleasant tune of praise. He will be acclaimed the greatest of British statesmen. If he loses, he shrugs his wasted shoulders, with drawing nothing. qualifying nothing. offering no defense, and dies calmly, regretting.-Toledo Blade.
