THE ALBANY DAl-Y HERALDS TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1906. Mr. Taylor, president of the Nation al Dinners’ Association, wlmtover oth er shortcomings may bo laid at his door, can not bo JuBtly accused of being a quitter. Senator Lodgo Is sutlslloil that the most serious evil to bo laid at tho door of the railroads Is the practlco of giy- . inffj. rebates. We ull know that long .ngpi What the country wants Is a remedy. j 1 Tho death of President J. W. Thom- an, of the Nushvllle, Chattanooga & St.: Louis railway, removes one of tho picturesque figures of tho Amerlcun rallrond world. He wus a practical man who worked Ills way up from the bottom. His system became one of the 'pest In tho country, und his Indi viduality was strongly stmnped upon •It. Ho was 70 years of age, and his clear-headed direction of Ills system's luislneBB placed ode more kink In the i Idlcv.lous Osier theory. SPECULATION. Tho old dispute os to whether It Is wrong to speculate runs merrily on, and may safely be placed On the In terminable list. Whether right or wrong, speculation of one sort or another will flourish as long as men Inhabit the earth. Though It be a sin or a virtue, it will survive, for it Is lneradlcably grounded In hu man kind. Tho small boy sees two sparrows sitting on a telegraph wire. He sayB to his chum: “Bet you a marble the hen sparrow flies first.” Does the challenged party refuse to bet? Not he. Neither of them wants the extra marble, but both crave the excitement which follows gratification of an In born passion. For tho same reason men will toss up n coin to determine who shall buy tho theatre tickets or pav the res taurant bill. Neither one to solflsli or sllngy, nor can either, tho chances are, resist the appeal to his sporting In stinct. We have scon six grown' men crowd around a keg turned on end, ench mun with a' loaf of sugar on the keg and each with a nickel In “tho pot," The owner of the loaf on which a fly first settled raked In tho thirty cents, and tho game ran on for hours. Say to some “pillar of the church,” "I'll hot you It will freeze tonight." Ho doosn't say "yes" and ho doesn’t say “no.” He comes back with a flash, “Whnt’ll you bet?" Ho can't help It. Ho may refuso to post a wager, but ho will Just simply "bet" you for tho snko of the oxeltement. Tho mon who do tho biggest bet ting, by dealing In futures of various klftto. are supposed to be able to Iobo ns well as win. The rule, unfortun ately, does not always hold good. \ If It did, there would be less to regret thun haprens to be the case. In the business World, practically everything men undertake to more or loss speculative. It Is Impossible to entirely eliminate tho clement of chance, but there- to a line beyond which It 1s not sate to go. As to tho oxnct whereabouts of this lino there Is and alwnys will he wide diftoroncos of opinion. Tho man who would make himself absolutely solid should bury his money—pud lock himself in a burglar- proof vault. negroes barred the way. In a very sweet, mild voice she asked if they would allow her to pass further up the aisle. She received ho response. Once more she asked them to step aside for a moment. There was also no reply to this request and then the fratl-looklng girl got busy. Telling, her escort to "come along,” she turned her shoulder forward and with a steady, unwavering force pushed a path through the crowd. It was wonderful and It was good In the eyes of the beholders and they snt mutely wondering where she con cealed all that strength. The girl got up front and was given a seat as a reward for hdr nerve, and then Bome- ono on the car Imparted tho Informa tion that the young miss was once a member of the track and basketball teams of a well-known Rchool In Bal timore and was also n golf and tennis player of local reputation. And then the crowd ceased wonder ing, sat still and admired. Booker Washington tells Ills colored luethron who reside In Northern stut s that It la Imperative that they prove themselves "bettor servants than their white rivals." That to good advice; but the trouble with a groat many ne groes Is that they are unwilling to be mere -servants. They aspire to high er callings, hut neglect to first pre pare themselves, mentally and manu ally. It hus been demonstrated that many negroes can with perfect ease Like the highest courses In our col leges and Universities, and they be lt;'.', come artisans of great expertness, but t)ie fact remains that thousands of , them are anxious to begin reaping long belore they have sown, or oven ;<’■ broken the soil. & . In his address at Waycross, the first of the campaign he launched a few J’V weeks ago. Colonel Estlll laid down y 1 the cardinal principle that, ho Is a business man seeking an office which ought to be conducted on business ■ lines. In keeping with his announced . program, Colonel Estill is conducting . a business man’s campaign. He Isn’t i- burning any fireworks and we see very little from him In tho columns of the K newspapers, but he to on tho move, ;-. nod If reports are to be credited, Is PS'gathering In votes In a manner which Kgjfe’ must find highly encouraging. We ■‘.-' have been having so much of the lat- day "whirlwind campaign" that i - of the staid and practical variety i§Je ‘cajt not fall to prove refreshing. That fir WlU also prove formidable now ap pears In the guise of a strong prob- The Richmond News Leader says: "Compulsory education has been de feated In the South Carolina legisla ture by the narrow margin of one vote. It 1s a significant fact that tho cotton mill managers favored the bill. This Is oxactly contradictory of some of tho sensational stories of ‘white child slavery In the South’ which we have seen printed from time to time. The bill wus defeated on the ground that It would mean dangerous Inter ference by the state with the rights of parents In the control of their own children. Tho cotton mill men eon- tended that tho proposed law would relievo their communities of the evil and danger of ohlldron too young to enter the mills, but left running loose nbout thc-stroets because their parents are too careless nnd neglectful to see that they attend the schools provided for them. About most large mill vil lages there Is a class of squaw men who put their families In the mill and live In Idleness on tho earnings of their women and children. It wns felt, however, that not oven to reach this class could the state adopt the principle of requiring parents to send children to schools whether they wish to do so or not." Explained a Monster. From the London Globe. ThOro are verifies means to get rid of a monster, but the host method, on 1 Hoveral grounds. Is to exnlatn him away. This 1s always the line of least resistance, and they have jest adopted • It with signal success at Zurich. Some time since an Intelligent policeman, so completely at his wits’ end how to kill time off duty that he took a, walk for nature study along Lake Wallenstadt, observed In the water what ho took at first for a dead hu man body, but on closer examination found to bo a live fish—as he con cluded, a monster pike, and the lake having below the normal supply of fish, a popular Impression got around that the giant jack had eaten them alj. The .phenomenon seemed so tan talizing that Professor Hencher, of Zurich, took It up, and he has made the dtaqovery—scarcely less remark able In the way than the policeman’s —that the fish Is not a single monster, but a whole shoal of harmless bream, which have a Way of Bwlmmtng bo closely jammed together as to give the -Impression of a single moving body.

It happened on a Towsou car sev eral evenings since and those who saw It, says the Baltimore Herald, will smile and chuckle at the recollection. A girl and a man got on the car at North avenue, after a little jaunt to one of the theatres, and, of course, the car was crowded. Every seat was filled with straphangers. The girl entered first anl managed to get about half way up the aisle, when a cluster of rather unpleasant SEABOARD AIR LINE RAILWAY. Schedula Effective July 3 1905—90th Meridian Tims.
