The sudden exodus of seven ne

one negro was left in the room when
the cops entered. He was found
breathing hard and paving the
ground. When called upon for an ex-
PLANTATION he said: at is just this

called upon to repair = railroad bridge

out waiting to draw plans or submit
estimates to headquarters Next
day, the Superintendent Of the read

A Child Shall Lead Them.

Modern and cultured persons, l be-
uave, object to their children seeing
Kitchen company or being taught by
woman like Pegotty. But surely
i. is more important to be educated
in q sense Of human dignity and equal
ity than in anything else in the world.
And child who has once had to re-
spect q kind and capable woman OF
the lower classes will respect the
lower classes forever. The true way
to overcome the evil in class distinc-
ton is not to denounce them as revo-
iutionists denounce them, but to ig-
more them as children ignore them

for II has been NANTES; that IN the e.
fort to get business. competing roads
have maintained more frequent train
service than was justified. and have
been otherwise wasteful. YET one can
not give unqualified approval TO MS as
sertion that the man who invented the
saying competition is the life OF trade
played a hard joke on the world.
Within certain limits competition Is
and always has been not only the Ike
ttrade. but The chief spur 10 human

iod Of keen competition that Mr.. Tn
derwood climbed to the presidency OF
1.-THE Erie. There were scores OF men
working beside. or just above. or just
below him in the railroad service who
were trying 70 attain the same posi-
lions he sought. They were all endeav
oring to render the best service. &c
make their work most profitable to
their employers. with successful attain

they would have shirked on the various
lob. II there had been no competition
for they would undoUbiedly have rem
dered a hundred cents worth Of service

say that from the day when Underwood
began as a brakeman. on up through
the tedious climb 10 the presidency. the
eternal law Of survival Of the flttest
had an influence in causing him 20 rem
der much more than a hundred cents
worth OF work for dollar Of pay. The
men who didn't compete with him are
still brakemen. II they have any jobs
