On visit to Atlanta university in
company with other white men, Clark
Howell, editor of the Atlanta Consti-
tuition, emphasized the mutual depend
ence of the white race upon the black
race. He declared that if the city
homes, white and black, were kept as
clean as the buildings of the school
the mortality of the city would be re-
duced by more than half.
Mr.. Howell said that education was
a good thing for all creatures and all
people of whatever race. That among
all people will be found two distinct
castles, the good and the bad. The
party visiting the school consisted of
Judge w. r. Hammond, Clark Howell.
j. X. Orr and DR.. C. B. Wilmer. Each
one Of the party made short addresses
to the students, Judge Hammond en-
phasizing the importance of individual
responsibility and the too frequent
tendency of people to shift the burden
upon someone else.

Just as there has been an organized
movement to have anti-intermarriage
measures passed in the various legis-
latures throughout the country, so is
there well-engineered plan on foot
to have the colored railroad porter
ousted in the west and middle west,
although several states have refused
to consider the plan seriously. The
scheme is to prevent the employment
of colored men as train porters. Por-
ters in the Pullman service are not
affected. AS usual. the train porters
are unorganized and are fighting the
hostile measures the best they can.
In each of the states in the west and
middle west bills have been intro
duced in the legislatures known us
the Full Crew Bill, which provides for
a brakeman and fiagman on all pas
senger trains carrying more than
three coaches. The purpose of the
Full Crew Bill is to do away with the
colored train porter, as he carries a
switch key the same as the brakeman
and performs similar duties.

Students in our colored colleges de-
serve to be commended for the man
ner in which they conduct themselves
in contrast with the actions of stu
dents in many white institutions of
learning. Here is a case in point:
According to the University Register,
Harvard students spend S603, 7SO for
clothes, S9S,255 for cigars and cigar
cites and s73,25O for wines, as COM
pared to $71,250 for books.

What is woman's work? 1t used to
be so defined by custom as to be as
unmistakable as the clothing she
wears distinguishing her from mere
man, and it was considered as un-
womanly to do mans work as to wear
mans clothing. Even now the wom-
an who wears short hair is looked
upon as being as queer as the man
who wears long hair. The tendency
among some women to wear clothing
fashioned after that of men, like rid
ing horseback astride, is frowned up
on by those who see nothing but de-
generation of the race in the unsexing
of the woman in her clothing, man
ners and occupation.
Women have of late years so en-
croached upon the occupations of men
in the Office, the store and the factory
as to lessen the wage earning capa-
city of men and the ability of men to
support families, so that marriages
are fewer and divorces are more nu-
merous than in old times. The wages
paid to women who do the work of
men is less than that paid to men,
and women do not spend their earn
ings in family making and educating
as men do. Indeed, how a woman
will spend a dollar bill is as much of
mystery as what a Bull Moose would
do in the White House. And Women
who begin life as independent wage
earners. and who constantly associ-
ate with men in their employments.

fulness and a certain hardness of

their fathers. 1t is that way now
with dogs, human and canine. A mas
culine woman is as dangerous in the
home as a feminine man.

The address of President Jas. B.
Noble, of this city, was one of the
features of the session Tuesday and
in part, was as follows:
THE success or failure of any
undertaking depends largely on the
individual engaged. in that undertake
ing. This is as true of school work
as of any other. Then what can the
teachers of Maryland do to make
our schools better? What can we
do to increase our attendance, to
secure better buildings, better equip
ment? AS to all these things, the
teachers can do much in the way of
arousing public opinion. What we
need in this State is to have the
people to realize fully our needs
for better schools. With our 5000
teachers scattered through every
district in the State, this could east
ly be accomplished through concert
ed action.
Most of the county school offici-
ais are handicapped for lack of
funds. The vain appeals made from
year to year by these officials to
the County Commissioners for suffi-
cient funds becomes an old story.
Let the teaching forces of the coun-
ties get behind this movement and
results will be obtained -

San Francisco. Oct. 1.-THE Sings
by baby case, involving $4,000 a year
income from a Yorkshire (England)
estate. and a charge Of baby substitu-
ton by Lieutenant and Mrs. Charles
r. Slingsby, in order to get this In
come, is to be r%eopened. The British
consul in this city has been appoint
ed by the English high court Of cham
Gerry to take testimony on h subject.
The final disposition Of the estate is
said to hinge upon this proceeding.
The proposed investigation recalls
the story told here in January. 1912.
by a Mrs. D. H. Blain. At h a time
the Slingsbys were in England. The
story told by Mrs. Blain was Of the
purchase and substitution in 1910 by
Mrs. Slingsby Of a wronged girls two
day-old infant as her own. the burn
ing Of the body of her child which
had been stillboorn, and the conceal
ment Of the whole transaction from
Lieutenant Slingsby. Mrs. Blain ad-
mitted having assisted in the crime.
According to the Blain woman's
story. after procuring a local physi-
clan to make and file a false birth
certificate. Mrs. slingsby. who had
come to San Francisco in order to
get the best medical care, returned
with the substituted child to her hus-
band, who al then at the Slingsby
home in Victoria. B. C.
If the British consul's investga-
ton proves the truth of Mrs. Blain's
story, then the big income to the
Slingsbys from the English estate will
cease.

500 RAILROAD TO
TAP RICH DISTRICT
Splendid Territory Known
as the Silver Leaf Coun-
try Will be Reached.

Sheldon, N. D., Oct. 22.-That the
500 line is thinking seriously of run
ming a spur line out into the Silver
Prairie country south of Leonard is
10 apparent. as Frank L. Thompson,
general freight agent of the line. was
in that territory last week looking
over the lay of the country and is said
to be ~favorablly impressed with the
amount of business from that locality
that would be secured in the event
that the road is built.
The spur would probably be in the
n~eighborhood Of thirty miles in length
tapping the main line at Mcleod. 1t
would run in a n~ortheasterly direction
from this point as far as Barrie.
There is a wide scope of country in
this locality that is. a good distance
from any railroad, and the market
ing Of produce has been a hazardous
task for a good many yers. The
new line would be an excellent feeder
to the main line of the 500 and a con-
siderable amount Of business would
he taken away from the ~. P. and
Great Northern lines.
Mr.. Thompson is always on the
alert for more business for his line
and was in the locality for the pur-
pose of locating a site for the new
Farmers elevator that is about to be
erected at the small station of Venlo.
He will undoubtedly return within
a week or SO and a proposed route
will be gone over. Should the 500
desire to build into that section many
Of the farmers would gladly give the
f1ght-of-way cross their farms.
