Washington, Nov. 5, Louisville
Negro segregation ordinance was tooay
declared unconstitutional by the su-
preme Court.
The decision affects similar ordinan.
ces in Baltimore, Richmond, St. Louis
AMI many other Southern cities.
In rendering the opinion, Ju. tice
Day said
The authority of the state to pass
laws in the exercise of the police pow
er, having for their object the promo
ton of the public health, safety aud
welfare is very broad and has been af-
iirmed in numerous and recent decis-
ions of the court. But it is equally
well established that the police power,
broad as it is, cannot justify the pass
age of law or ordinance which runs
counter to the mutations of the fedei-1
al constitution
That there exists a serious and DIFF
ficult problem arising from a feeling
ofrace hostility which the lew is. pow
erless to control and to which it must
give measure of consideration, may
be freely admitted. But this solution
cannot be promoted by depriving citi-
zens of their constitutional rights and
privileges. The right which the ordi-
nance ennulled was the civil right of
whito man to dispose of his property
if he saw fiji to do to a person Of color
and of a colored person to make such
disposition to white person.
1--WE think this att mpt to prevent
the alienation of the property in ques-
tion to a person of color was not legit-
innate exercise of the police power of
the state and in direct violation of the
constitution.
st Louis, Nov. 5.-The Negro seq
regation ordinance of ST. Louis nevor

two officials step aside and leave him
alone. After few minutes had passed
by, one of them, out of curiosity, looked
to see what had taken place, and there
sat Lincoln, with his head bowed on
Jefferson Davis desk, his face in his
hands and his tears falling. And l
say that the angels of God never
looked down from the battlements of
heaven on holier scene than that.
His great, sympathetic heart saved the
republic. That was the greatest vic
tory in the Civil war; that settled the
struggle; that bound the North and
South together, and Abraham Lincoln,
like his great Master, died of broken
heart. 1t burst with sympathy. The
greatest victory in those days of strug-
gle was that Christlike sympathy. The
greatest victory that is ever won on
any battlefield of human life, in the
hour when the struggle goes on, is won
through the wonderful element that
comes down from the heart of Jesus
Christ-his own divine sympathy for
struggling humanity.-Cortland Myers.

the front and invariably invites MEM
bers of the cabinet, parliamentary dig
nitaries, distinguished foreigners and
war correspondents to luncheon with
him. The repast is a simple one, but
well cooked, for the generals chef was
a Gordon bleu in one of the fashion
able Paris restaurants before mobili-
cation turned him into "cuistot," or
army cook.
Immediately after lunch the gen.
eral, attended usually by a single aid
de-camp, climbs into his big limousine
and sets out for the firing line. He
stops at Verdun and has chat with
General Dubois, commandant of the
citadel, about the days developments.
Then he goes forward on foot to the
missionary, brigade and regimental
headquarters, and on into the trenches
if it seems necessary. On the way he
talks with 'poilus" he may chance to
meet and informs himself thus at first
hand concerning that most important
rib in an army's anatomy-morale.
Little Time for Rest.
BY Ave o'clock General Nivelle is
back again at headquarters, ready to
listen to another series of reports,
dealing with activities since a. M,
and to receive the maps corrected by
hourly airplane reconnaissance and
photography. Just before dinner he
of the divisions under his command,
and if it be Friday holds a great
conference with all his subordinate
general officers. Dinner, served at half
past seven, is usually a family af-
fair" only the higher functionaries of
the headquarters staff being present.
No sooner has the general finished
eating and partaken of his demi-tasse
than he is once more in his high
backed chair among his beloved maps.
The evening is most reposeful part
of the generals day, in the sense that
he can concentrate his thoughts on the
problems before him without fear of
constant interruption. Orders are
given that he can be reached by tele-
phone only for extremely important
reasons, and callers are excluded un-
less on matters of the greatest ur-
gency.
The general winds up his CORE
spondence, and with one or two chosen
counselors from among his aids-de-
camp studies the maps inch by inch,
notes every slightest change that has
occurred in "a hours, and plans how
best to ''nibble" the Germans, or if
a battle is in contemplation or in
progress, to crush them.
On days during which an attack is
on or the fighting is specially brisk
the program is varied to the extent
that the general spends more time at
an observation post overlooking the
field of operations-and also uses the
telephone more. But in any event, he
is almost certain to go to bed at mid
night, for he has learned, in common
with other directors of great enter
prises, that sleepless nights are sell
dom worth a clear head in the morn
ing.
