RAISE $50 IN 10 MINUTES.
Boys at Grand Council Open Wallets
for Destitute Widow.

AS an example of how quick travel
ing men are to respond to the call OF
the needy, the following account of an
incident occurring during the grand
council Of the United Commercial
Travellers at State Springs, Tenn, is
given:
1t was brought to the attention OF
the council that widow living near
the meeting place was desperately i'll,
and nothing but surgical operation
could relieve her. Fifty dollars was
needed for this operation. and when
the boys had the matter up to them
it took them less than ten minutes to
have 1t in the hat.
This is only one instance OF thous-
ands where the commercial traveller
makes glad the hearts Of the helpless.

There was dame in our town,
And she was awful "deef;"
She had trumpet for her ear
And thereby came to grief.
She went out to cart one day
To get a quart OF milk,

OF this she had no ilk.
She raised her trumpet toward the man
And, much to her chargin,
he took quart OF buttermilk
And poured 1t all therein.

The service on this line Is entirely
Inadequate. as Is shown by the crowded
condition Of the cars at any hour Of

THE EVOLVED CAUCASIAN
AND HIS SOCIAL SYSTEM

To the Editor OF THE TIMES;
In 11l5 the British government was
the most liberal and most enlightened
government on the face of the earth.
Yet 1t was against that government
that the Americans rebelled. land fired
the shot heard around the world" The
success of that rebellion was a revoIu-
tton. and 1t brought forth the Constitu-
ton OF the United States. Under that
Constitution no title OF nobility can be
granted and no official power can be
bequeathed or inherited. In guarding
with checks and counter checks against
the usurpaton of official power the
trainers of the Constitution made a not
able step toward real morality.
1t was also the intention OF the fra fl-
ers OF the Constitution to prevent the
accumulation of excessive wealth in the
hands Of the few. In this respect the
trainers did not do so we'll, though they
probably did the best that was then
possible. 1t was attempted to recognize
the so-called rights of the slave holder,
and by later amendment II was at
tempted to confer upon the negro a
Caucasian eqluya lent. But with all of
its inperfections II is probably the best

profanity to swear few modulated

would renew their youth like the eagle,
and monotony would pass them by.

the bride for such a wedding as that
which will take place when Miss Cotton

CRITICISES REVIEW
OF IRISH PLAYERS

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
dare say that the average disinter-

con about THE Famous Irish Play
ers' to satisfy him, and it was not my
intention to put my finger In the pie
until today, when I read Julia MUIR

ton now to trouble you with a lengthy
comment upon that review. 1 simply
wish 10 say that think Julia MUIR
dock does not understand. And would
like to tell the lady, whose reviews
always read with pleasure. that the
ipen and women who are endeavo voring

generation into which 700 years of Eng

1t Is superfiuous to comment upon the
scenes depicted in THE Playboy."
Everybody who knows anything OF
Irish life knows that to represent the
Irish peasant as an arSnirsr, nay. al
most worshiper OF a wretch whose
hand are red with his fathers blood,
is the grossest and most shameless
calumny; for not even 700 years of Eng
lands brutalizing rule could deprive
the Irish peasant Of moral virtue; and
yet your reviewer implies that such
a representation Is ''the unadorned
truth"

LIKE THE BEGINNING
OF CLEVELAND FIGHT

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
The street railway companies atti-
tude in refusing universal transfers in
this city is, in many respects. similar to
the beginning OF the fight for 3-cent
fare and universal transfers In Cleve-
land. And Cleveland has Scent fare
and universal transfers today, thanks
to Tom Johnson and his fighting energy.
The companies there would so bank
rIupt. they claimed. on scent fare
basis; yet when those who had faith
in these then untried theories got a
franchise and prepared to construct
such a line all sorts of legal obstacles
were placed in their. way, even to the
extent of changing the entire municipal
code of the State of Ohio.
But. finally, the water was so
squeezed out of the stocks of the old
companies: and they are operating on
the basis that was going to put them
out Of business" and are paying from
6 per cent to per cent on the invest
ment.
Let Washington study the history of
the fight in Cleveland, and then 60
after the street railway companies: and
