DEATH IN THE "JACK PoT."

Increasing numbers of soiled bills
are being returned to Washington
for redemption. Mr.. A. Greasy Nor
rison, of Chicago, still carries on
with enthusiasm a campaign against
"flthy lucre;" filthy in the literal
sense of the word; when represent
ed by the bills commonly used in
present-day transaction of business.
The results Of a thorough analy-
sis of twenty-four of the worst bills
turned In are startling. There were
germs Of grippe, tuberculosis,
diphtheria and other contagious dis
eases. Mr.. Morrison claims that the
examinations made for typhoid and
cholera germs in drinking water
should be applied to bills. When
Mr.. Hilditch, of Yale, examined
twenty-four bills he discovered an
average of 142, 900 bacteria of vari-
GUS dangerous maladies, which is a
matter of grave concern when it Is
considered that this money had
passed through the hands of thou
sands of men, women and children
all over the country. 1t has been
proved scientifically that paper
money Is q means of transmission of
disease. Germs of tuberculosis and
other contagious disorders nay live
for several days in bills. From a
sanitary standpoint, the federal gov
eminent ought to remedy this dis
graceful condition. In fact, the bills
become so contaminated hat no
self-respecting person would accept
such an accumulation of filth In
any other form than money. in a
public or private transaction,-Joe
Mitchell Chepple in affairs at
Washington" in the National Maya
zine for August.

BONAPARTE's SWEETHEART

Just two and a half years after
the death and burial of "Old Nor
taltty' on Christmas Eve, 1903, all
Baltimore rang with the greatest
social event that the city of beauti-
ful women had ever witnessed-the
marriage of Jerome Bonaparte and
Elizabeth Patterson.
The groom was resplendent in a
purple satin coat, heavy with costly
embroideries and gold lace, whose
skirt, lined with white satin. In the
latest fashion of the Directory beau
monde, fell over his satin knee
breeches and silk hose, to the very
tops OF the diamond buckles, that
clasped his low-cut shoes. His long,
fine hair was powdered snowy white,
contrasting well with his dark eyes
and rich complexion.
The bride wore q white muslin
dress, of ~diaphanous texture, such as
the famous Indian looms have made
famous for centuries, which. despite
rich embroidery and costly lace, re-
vealed the beauty of arms and neck,
and fitted In the extreme Of a fash
ion that emphasized tAe outlines of
her feultless limbs and perfect form.
2All the clothes worn by her
might have been put in my pocket"
wrote a lively correspondent, of that
letter-writing era. Her dress was
of muslin of an extremely fine tex
ture.- Beneath her dress she wore
but one garment"
Congratulations and good wishes
were showered upon her, and the
weeks of the honeymoon were a
dream of sweet madness and graft
fed ambition.-Charles Winslow
Hall. in "a Shattered Dream" in
the National Magazine for August.

TOr the Negro.
The July American Magazine says:
IAN interesting condition OF af-
fairs has arisen at Oberlin College,
the Ohio institution OF learning
which attained a national reputation
long before the Civil War chiefly
because of its attitude toward the
negro. For seventy-ive years Ober-
lin stood as a powerful exponent Of
the principle of the brotherhood of
man, including the black man.
At last, however, rebellion against
this fundamental principle of the coll
lege has broken out among the stu
dents. One Of the college literary So
cieties for men, to which negro stu
dents have been admitted for seven
ty years, recently made 1t clear to
negroes by vote that they are not
welcome as members. Under the
pressure of criticism the society later
reversed Its action. 1t Is we'll
known, however, that the reversal is
not to be accepted as an indication
of any real change Of heart on the
part OF the students. AS a matter
of fact, negro students at Oberlin
are not much more numerous or
popular than they are at Harvard
or any other college. They have
the privileges Of the school, just as
they do in various other places, but
that is practically all.
I'm the condition at Oberlin one
sees nothing but the natural out
come of Oberlin's gradual develop
ment. Within the past fifteen or
fwonfu pAarc nhnr1tD bo1 o.rof1u 4p-
creased its funds and its equipment.
It's beautiful buildings and excellent
educational advantages have attract
ed a class of students who come
from families which have no eccen-
trio interest in the brotherhood Of
man, plain living, high thinking, or
any of the old-time principles which
formerly characterized Oberlin. The
college has become more like other
colleges. There are almost as many
dress suits in Oberlin now as there
are in Ann Arbor; that is, in pro-
portion to the number of students.
"Of purse this material enrich
ment of the college has been ac-
companied by a loss of some of the
old idealism. At least there has
been a change in the ideals. Nobody
should be surprised at this, however.
The simple fact is that the new
generation of students and teachers
at Oberlin come from ordinary or
ganized society, and ordinary organ
lied society, north or south, has no
special enthusiasm for the negro.
THE reader will make a mistake
IL he takes away the idea that what
is written here is either an indict-
ment or a defense of Oberlin. 1t
is neither. The question is too deep
to be dismissed in a few words. 1t
may take several thousand years to
straighten out the problem. Nobody
can tell where the negro will be
at the end of that time. A great
number of enthusiasts equal in In
tensity and duration to that Of Ober-
lin may have to be undergone before
the thing is settled-and settled
