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

t)ie fact remains that thousands of

. 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

little from him In tho columns of the
K newspapers, but he to on tho move,

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

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
