not legally advised what degree of per-
centage OF African blood constitutes a
colored person within the meaning of the
law of the District of Columbia
Hence we hold that being essentially a
legal question, ii is beyond our compe-
tence and jurisdiction to determine wne-
Their this child is colored or not, according
to the laws of the District of Columbia
las representatives of the colored popu-
latiOn of the District of Columbia we do
not concede that the white schools are in
any way superior to the colored schools
but that the intent of the organic law of
lJGV and the aim of the board of educa-
ton and the administration of the schools
are intended to furnish the colored child
with as good and ample facilities for edu-
cation as Is furnished the white child-in
other words, to establish equality of edu-
cational equipment and opportunity for
both races
This being so, we cannot admit that
there is any degradation or humiliation
school as contradistinguished from a
white school: for we cannot stultify our
selves to the point of admitting that our
own Children are stamped as inferior be-
cause or attendance on the schools pro-
Vfded by the board of education for COL
ored children. Nor are we disposed to
grant that there is any superior privilege
attaching to attendance on a white school
as compared with colored school.
Hence, II competent court deter
mines that this child is a colored child
within the meaning of the law, we can see
no essential disadvantage in it's attend
ance on colored school, except that in
cidental to the distance which must be
Travelled by any colored pupil residing in
Brookland."
TWAS said last night that if the child
Is admitted to white schools and later
declared colored by law. then the school
which she attends would, according to the
organic act creating the board of educa-
ton. be turned over to the assistant SUI
perintendent for colored schools The law
states that this official shall have charge
Of schools where colored children at

But let say that. making due allowance
for our enthusiasm, the proven efficiency should
be reduced 50 per cent .1o, o That would stl mean
Of knowledge Of these specifics. Is not that vast

Pass Up Question as One for
Judiciary to Answer.
COURT TO DECIDE NEXT
WHITE, VOTES MRS. TERRELL

Isabel Wall of Brookland d. c., the
little seven-year-old girl over whom law
yers. educators, Sunday schools and citi-
Zens' associations have been wrangling
for months, was declared a colored child
for purposes of school classification, at a
few minutes before midnight, last night,
after the board of education had been in
session since o'clock in the afternoon,
with a recess for dinner.
But that did not end the matter. The
boards decision went back to Justice
Wright, in the District Supreme Court, to-
day. There John Ridout, attorney for
Stephen r. Wall, the child's father. is en-
deavoring to have the law Of the land de-
termine that when the schools shut out
Isabel Wall from Brookland school for
white children they were in the wrong.
White Girl, Mrs. Terrell Thinks.
The board is bound by the majority vote
that the child, for school purposes is
colored. Yet Mrs. Terrell voted against
the majority and is firmly convinced that
Isabel is a white child.
Richard r. Horner and William V. Tun-
nell, the other two colored members or
the board, say they are absolutely in the
dark and do not know whether or not
Isabel is colored child. They did not
vote on the resolution, but issued state
ment Of their position just after the reso-
luton introduced by Capt. Oyster was
seconded by Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey a
few minutes before midnight.
The boardroom was crowded IN the
afternoon, when the special meeting came
to order. Representatives OF the Brook
land Citizens Association had come with
the evident intention of saying something
about the case. They were not allowed
to speak.
School teachers. school officials, Normal
School girls crowded about the doors of
the boardroom, gazing curiously at the
unconscious and pretty little Isabel
Wall. The child was the least concerned
of any one there. She sat with her
mother, Mrs. Minnie Wall.

Here is the way Robert u.
Ingersoll spoke on one occasion.
of the best part of creation: 1T
takes one hundred men to make
an encampmeut. but one woman
can make a home. | not only
admire woman as the most
beautiful creature that was ever
created, but / reverence her as
the redeemlng glory Of human
ity, the sanctuary Of all perfect
qualities OF heart aud head. 1t
is not just nor right to lay the
sins of men at the feet OF
women. 1t is because women
are 30 much better than men
that their faults are considered
greater. A mans desire is the
foundation of his love, but a
woman's desire is born OF love.
The one thing in this world
that is constant, the one peak
that arises above all clouds, the
one window in which the light
forever burns. the one star that
darkness cannot quench, Is
voman's love. 1t rises to the
greatest height, il sinks to the
lowest depths, it forgives the
most injuries. 1t is perennial
Of life and grows in every eli
mate. Neither GOODNESS no,
neglect, harshness nor cruelty
can extinguish it. A woman
love is the perfume OF the neart'
This is the real love that sub
dues the earth; the love that has
wrought all miracles OF art
that gives us music all the way
from the cradle song TO the
grand closing symphony tina
hears the soul away on It's WING
IF fire: a love that Is greater
than power, sweeter than lAit
and stronger than death
