ALL OF THAT.

One Shenandoah man is spending so
much money on woman that he
doesn't have any left to pay his honest
debts-and that woman isn't his wife,
either. This fellow is Sidelights' idea
of surplus humanity. All deadbeats
take pretty low step in the ladder OF
decency-especially those who have or
make enough money to pay their obi-
cations. but don't. There are, however.
a few things that temper ones disgust
at the man who occasionally gets be-
hind, when a mans wife is constitu-
tiuraiiy al ungo"crnah!e spendthrtft
when doctor bills pile up. or any of a
dozen possible complications arise. But
the low down. unprincipaled. degener-
ate cuss, who; with A nice wife at
home, wastes his money on trashy
woman and becomes a chronic dead
beat. is beyond the pale of recognition
by decent people. Shenandoah could get
along so much better with this fellows
room than with his person!

NEGRO AND CHlkAMAN,

Calumet avenue in Chicago Is can

rich Chinese merchant who has bought
a home in that fashionable quarter
and moved in. Naturally the news
paper men scented a story OF !ndls-
nant householders sacrificing property
and moving out Of the neighoorhood
or of q movement to Gust the Chlnk- II
didn't turn out that way. One Of the
nearest neighbors said that II the
Chinaman kept the property up as Well
as the previous owner he has no. oo-
tections to his nationality. Another
thought it would be interesting to nave
him In the neighborhood. On the whole
nobody seems to be excited because
the new owner is a Chinaman nor IS
any one getting ready TO move.
The case recalls the cutlery which
went up from an exclusive residence
quarter in Des Moines when wealthy
negro bought a fine house in that
neighborhood and moved in. It ap-
preached riot The protest was long
and loud One wonders whether II
would have been different If the Des
Moines negro had been a Chinaman
or II the Chicago Chinaman had been a
negro.
Where is the color line drawn? There
isn't very much contrast OF shade be-
tween a saddle colored negro and a
Chinaman. OF course a poverty strick

TWO FOOLISH MEN.

A prominent farmer near Vinton has
sued his neighbor, also prominent
farmer, asking 5000 for defamation Of
character. The defendant is said to
have accused the plaintiff of having
stolen butter. provisions and chickens
from the defendant. These two foolish
fellows will sour their tempers. Will
build up wall Of enmity between each
other, will go to very heavy expense.
and in the end they will get no salts
faction whatever. Their case viii prob
ably be kept in the courts as long as
they are willing tc spend money. AND
after their cash Is gone, they will be
sadder and perhaps wiser men. II they
were wise. they would never have gone
