THE BLACK MAN SCORES.

An editoriaI in the Herald-Demo-
crat of Leadville, pays high tribute
to the colored porters who were shot
by bandits on the Southern Pacific a
few night ago. 1t says:
Score one for the colored brother,
and let the score be so plain that all
men may read. There is lying in
the morgue at Ogden, Utah, the body
of man. His skin is black. He be-
longs to race that in large section
of the country is considered inferior
This black man occupied the humble
position of porter on a passenger
train. The train was boarded by two
bandits. Of all the hundreds of per-
sons on that train, including crew
and passengers, only two men. the
dead man and another of the same
color, made the slightest attempt to
resist the two deSperadoes
ct is rather an odd thing when one
comes to consider the facts.
"One Negro tried to prevent the
bandits from entering the car He
was shot His comrade promptly
rushed to his rescue and was wound

in the car at the time. Had any one
of them possessed one-tenth the
sand of either of these blacks they
might have overpowered the despera-
does then and there. The blacks FUR
nished the chance One of them paid
for it with his life The other re-
ceived a severe wound. But the white
men were as sheep in the hands OF
the shepherd.
"Such incidents as this are chasten
ing to the white mans vanity They
do not prove any chronological fact
They do not establish any social the
DRY. But the incident of the Over
land train. robbery is always well tc
bear in mind when the loud-mouthed
bloviator is abroad telling of the SUI
premacy and superiority of the white
race. The white man is a superior
being, all right, but we still fall short
of ranking with the angels and-wel
a few flowers are due at the funera
of the black man who dared"

Banked Rails.

In rounding a curve the tendency
of the weight Of a train is invariably
counterfeit this tendency the outer rail
of a curve is raised on higher level
than the inside, the elevation being
in an exact proportion to the sharp
ness of the curve as determined by the
principles of engineering II both
rails of curved track were of exactly
the same elevation a train would not
dare round it at high speed.

SCORES A Big HIT
Montgomery Advertiser Says Produc.
tion This Year surpasses All
Efforts.

The immense popularity of AL G.
Field as a producer of minstrel shows
was attested Monday evening when
one of the largest audiences of the
present season came to witness his
production of 1911. They were not
disappointed, for In spite of the fact
that the great maker of minstrels no
longer appears in person upon the
stage, his offering is bigger and more
impressive than it has ever been in
the twenty-six years of his owner
ship.
Stupendous is probably the word
which best describes the staging. Mr..
Field does not content himself with
the aggregation of singers in three
cornered hats and jokers in burnt
cork and green satin, but every one
of myriad acts is presented with such
embellishments of scenery that the
ear scarcely hears for the eye seeing.
The first scene is cotton field, the
sun sinking Each with a sack on his
back, the negroes stoop over the
stalks in artful similitude. There are
songs. Then the stage goes dark to
flash forth again a garden of foun-
tains. The transformation is magic
Auroral lights tint the trees. The
fountains flow in cooling crystal.
Skipping the view of Forbes Field
and the accompanying baseball game
a scream, there comes Aunt Dinah's
quilting party which is perhaps the
artistic triumph of the production.
When the stage becomes dark and
the lights flash in the little cabin
the party appears. like vivid phan-
toms, behind the really transparent
logs.
That was really a proper climax,
for an eXtravagant display came as
finale, after Mexico Ho Ho," repre-
senting the United States camp at
San Antonio, and "Old Oceans
Depths picturing the world as it is
under the sea. The scene was a tab
|
A great fighting ship in the middle
distance rode the green waves. From
the right little vessel made it's way
toward a lighthouse and sank. In
solemn pageant, Commodore Perry
and his men drove the British from
Lake Erie. Soldiers and sailors of the
United States filled the stage, hearing
the Peace Hymn dedicated to Presi-
dent Taft. The curtain descends
: with the voices singing "Our Coun-
try This of Thee"
There was plenty of fun too Burt
2 Swoir in Walks and Talks" is the

it was wherever he appeared, his
