Think of that; tho colored pcoplo of this coun try numher 9,000,000, moro or leBS frco people, ns compared with about 4,000,000 blacks when Lincoln freed the slaves 41 years ago. Five hundred nnd eighty-four years ngo tho first black slaves were landed nt Jamestown, Va.; they nnd all their descendants wero slaves for over 300 years, with no chance of education or enlightenment or progress; under over 2C0 years of slavery they multi plied to 4,000,000; In 40 years of free lom, under very embarrassing condi tions, nnd always more or less handi capped by a lot of maneuvering, un consclonablo politicians, who never cared n picayune or a tinker's dam for tho wholo Negro raco, but only for their votes, they havo grown to over 8,000,000; nnd whllo mnny of them nro In comparntlvo mental and moral Ignornnco yot why not? thoy "'"lire Hlowly and surely working their wny onward and upwnrd. To do what? Not to destroy tho country, which Is tholr's tho snmo ns tho white mnn's, but to help It, to mnko It better. This Is not tho Ne groes' "mission" nt all; ho has none, excopt honest, and for tho most pnrt, liumblo work, nnd rcaBonnblo, re spectable progress; ho docs not do nlro to bo on an "equnllty" In ovory nodal senso with tho whlto race; hut ho does domand a fair and open right to labor, and a chanco so to cducato himself and, yes, help for educa tion so that ho can becomo Intelli gently freer, and a bettor citizen. For tho black man Is a citizen. Ho Is no longer n chnttol, a .mule, n slnvo; but, undor tho laws, a full fledged cit izen. Tho Negro Bhoutd romombor that ho has rights, but also that, nftor nil, lin ns n wholo Is not equal In nil re npects to tho whites, nnd thoroforo ho lias duties to himself nnd his succuhh orH to porform, n duty to tho rnco, lioro anil now, thero nnd henceforth. Lot tho colored man remember that ho Is ono of nine millions not In un uuomly or puffud-up prldo, not In vnln Klory, but with a consciousness, an cyo, an our, a tongue, nnd n hand that nro not to bo despised nnd must bo rocognlzod. Hero Is n curious thing; The United States burs tho Chinese, mere ly on tho domain! of politicians who want votes, nnd In this they nro large ly right; hut It admits Ignorant and nnnrchlBtlo people of nil nntlnns, tho HL'iiin of tho earth, to .make voters of thorn, for this or that party. More, they Import theuo men by tens of thousands in ordor to displace nnd If necessury kill that mnny, or one-half or ono-tenth that number, of honest, able Negro workers. Worse, thoy al low, In u short tlmo after arrival, hundreds of thousands of tho scum of Kuropo to conio hero nnd voto, nnd most of tho frco Negores of this coun try, although under tho highest law of the land aro full citizens, arc not per mitted to voto. And In most parts of tho United States men unlawfully nnd savagely hang u "nlggor" for doing what thoy would "tront" a whlto young fellow, put him on tho back, say ho was u great boy, nnd predict that he would becomo president. Now this Isn't right. Tho colored pcoplo are now ninu-inllllon strong. Wo are entitled, not let us admit or Assumo to soclnl or all sorts of equal ity, not to full political equality, but In tho broud senso to equal rights, and especially tho right to labor and to learn uud to bo protected from mobs.

GOOD j Short Q lories I MMtHHMMMMOM Canon Melvllla, who died, tht otbtr day, In hli ninetj-Mcond year, owed his earlleet promotion to a pun. When the late Earl of Dudley, who knew Mr. Melville sufficiently to remember that his Christian name was "David," had a living at his disposal, he re ceived a letter containing only the words, "Lord, remember David." The Earl's reply was no less terse and scriptural: "Thou art the man!" Lincoln's humor got him out of try ing situations, and tempered his re fusal of favors, as happened during the Civil War, when a gentleman ask ed htm for a pass through the Fed eral lines to Richmond. "I should be happy to oblige you," said Lincoln, "If my passes were respected. Put the fact Is, within the last two years I have given passes to Richmond to a quarter of a million men, and not one has got there yet." The late Speaker Reed was once encountered by a friend in an uptown hotel, Into In the evening, whllo the House was in the throos of a terrific tariff debate. It was supposed to be the crisis of the struggle. "How is It," this gentleman asked of the Speak er, "mat you are not at the House and within range of that debate?" "De bate," repeated the Speaker, contempt uously, "that's only language only language," with which laconic remark be. dismissed the subject George R. Peck, the railway attor ney, was once In South Dakota argu ing a case before the Federal court After making his argument, be walk ed to the hotel with a Judge of tho court who highly complimented his effort Peck was delighted, and con fided to a friend that be knew, on account of the Judge's manner, he would win the en so. His friend was not so sanguine he know tho Judge. In support of his pessimistic vlow, he toiu uns story: "Unco thero was n lion tamer whose duty It was to go Into tho cage nnd put his head in a big lion's mouth twlco a day. Ono day, after ho hnd gotten his bead In the animal's mouth, ho naked the keep er In a low volco, 'Is tho Hon wag ging bis tatir 'He Is,' replied tho keeper. 'Then I'm gone,' said tho tamer, and tho next moment the Hon closed his Jaws and killed the tamer." It was both a story nnd a prophecy. Mr. Peck lost bis case. Dr. John Kerr, In a new book of "Memoirs," recalls a number of hu morous Scotch stories. For example, there Is tho story of the "argumenta tive tipsy"' Scot, who, calling on Uio minister, and being told to go homo, and return the next day when he was sober, replied: "Man, minister, when I'm sober, I dlnna care a d n for religious conversation." Then, thero is the story about Thomas Thorp, who died leaving his fortune to a poor rela tive, on condition that a headstone with the name of tho said Thomas Thorp and a verse of poetry, be erect ed beside the grave. Costing eo much a word to chisel letters in the atone, the poor rotative ordered that the po etry should be brief. Upon his re fusal to approvo, on account of their too great length, the lines Hare lies the corp Of Thomas Thorp, the foltowlug was finally offered and Corpse. INDIANS OF MEXICO. Cacti Pllgrlmagca They Take - Qlrla Condact Courtahlpa, Although Carl LuinholU, an author of books on Mexico, did his best for the native tribes of northwestern Mex ico In his lecture, It is doubtful If mauy In the audience felt drawn to the blanketed individuals with mat ted hair and stodgy faces, squalidly squatting In tho sun, about whom ho talked, says the New York Tribune. Yet Dr. Luuilioltz said he had spent five years among them. Ho was, to bo sure, In tho employ of certain great geographical societies, so that explo ration wns a business as well as a pleasure. Ono tribe of 4,000 ludluns ho claimed to have discovered, since for nearly 200 years their existence seems to have escaped the knowledge of the Caucasian, and mnny were the legends and traditions which ho was the first white man to hear and tran scribe. "On my first exploration," said the lecturer, "I crossed the Sierra Madre range with nearly 100 autmals and twenty-six men, but I found that I could work more expeditiously with a smaller retinue, so that I subse quently reduced the number very much. I depended entirely on In dians. The white man who explores these regions finds he must rely on the Mexican Indian, and that he must himself live like oue. Heans and mnlie formed our diet. Generally the matte, or Indian corn, Is dried, then ground, but I found that tousting tho whole grains' made a palatable dish. Only, It was very hard ou the teeth. My dental bills lengthened as my mo lars shortened. It may be all right for the animals aud lower races of men to live on the same thing all the time, but civilised inau grows mighty tired of It "Often I have been asked, 'Why didn't you carry civilised foodl' The only civilised food that would have beeu possible to carry was tinned things, and tinned things are heavy and would have entailed extra ani mals nud Indians to care for them, That is why I got along without them. But ofton I would go without a meal at noonday rather than tako tho tlmo to get It, and 1 find by my diary that I was too tired to eat at night, nnd In the morning thero was nothing to eat." Dr. I.umholtx showed soma wonder fnl pictures of cacti blossoms, Uko flames, growing out of the darkness. "Thero Is," ho said, "a cacti cult among the Mexican ludluns. At cer talu seasons they go on pilgrimages to gather cnctl aud there aro some va rieties to which they sacrifice oxon." Oactl assume many weird shapes. The lactam told how he once had. his mes cut down the spike of a giant cactus. It waa 10 feet long and 81 inches across In the place where It was cut across and waa covered with flowers as large as tulips almost 20,000 t them, the explore calcu lated. Sentiment and emotion are not en couraged by' these people. "X hus band and wife may not kiss each oth er, but a mother Is allowed by eti quette to kiss her child and the child can do the same In return," said the speaker. "Courting is the prerogative of the girls, who select their sweethearts and then attempt to attract their affections by dancing. When the courtship grows ardent tho girl begins throw ing pebbles at the man sho wishes to marry. If he throws pebbles at her they become Instantly engaged. If he throws none the girl understands that he does not reciprocate her devotion and wimdraws from the pursuit THE GAMBLING FACE. Kapreaaioa Announce Whether a Mao la Short In Ilia Accounts or Not. "How the fellow looks who loses or wins a bet on a racehorse Is an old subject and yet it Is ever new," said tho observant man, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat "For within my own limited range of ob servations I havo noticed differences more or less striking in tho cases of men who wero manifestly passing through the ssme kind of emotions. It may be said of poolrooms that there Is the winning and the losing look, and yet these looks are widely different as It Is possible for the dis similarities of the human countenance to make them. "It Is easy enough to tell from the look of a man's faco whether he has won or lost. Rut the degree and na ture of the winning or the loss Is quite a different matter. Hero Is where the Interesting part of my ob servation comes In. Ono man's win ning or loss may mean much or little to him. Whatever it means, and whatever the result of tho race, It may be found In tho wny ho looks and tbo way he nets when tho man at tho Instrument calls out tho result. Even by the wny he listens to tho calls ono mny detect somewhat of tho significance of tho event to him. If tho result Is largo In its consequences ono may tell it by the desperate look which his fsre' wears pending tho result, or tho nervousness ho displays when tearing up tho losing ticket, or tho inexpressible brightness which shines in his face when he rushes up to cash in the bet he has made, Iri the event of success. Let me observe a man's conduct In the poolroom and 1 will tell you nine times out of ten whether his accounts are straight or not Of course, thero are exceptions to the rule, but no mistake will be made on the basis I have suggested nine times out of ten." DENVER LAD'S SENSATION. Nearly Brraka.ta World'a Record or "Swimming Under Water. A Denver youth has performed a swimming feat In London that Is de scribed ss sensational by those who witnessed, and catno within a few inches of beating all provlous records. The youth, whoso name Is F. II. SinulUer, Is sixteen years of age. He has beeu enjoying a holiday In Eng land In company with his father, and on April SO he walked unpretentiously Into the public bathhouse In Kndell street aud asked the superintendent If he would be allowed facilities to at tack a world's record made by tho cel ebrated Prof. Kinney. Thnt record con sisted of swimming 113 yards 1 Inch under water. The management of the baths con sidered It presumptuous on the part of such a youngster to nsplre to anything approaching Finney's record, but see ing that he was a stranger they agreed to allow him to test his abilities. He desired that the water should be at a temperature of 76 degrees. Plunging In he did 112 yards o Inches, to the nmnzoment of the attendants and oth ors who citme from other parts of the building to see him. He bent Finney's record for time at this distance. It Is also worthy of uotlco thnt whllo Smult zer had tho wntor at a tempernturo of 75 degrees, Finney's record was made at 80 degrees, which Is considered among swimmers as of great advan tage to the latter. It Is nlso pointed out that If the Denver lad had essayed tho task from the deep, Instead of tho shallow, end of the bath he would have beaten the world's record. The fact that this feat has received no publicity this side Is explained by the circumstances that the effort was so Informal and that Uie newspapers are by no means friendly to American athletes. "Prlcere" The Bane of Lire. A sslfswomau ,lu a Btate street store having shown scant courtesy the other day to a man who had been look lug over the goo'8 on 'ler counter ex plained It all to a friend after the man had left. "He's only a 'prlcer' " she said. "lie wants to know the cost of eTcrythlng in the store at least, of everything he hasn't the slightest Idea of buying,. Just now It was thoso skirt holders; to-morrow, likely as not, he'll waut to know if automobile cloaks are cheaper by the dosen than singly. "I think It" was he who asked me last week If gray false hair was more expensive than blonde. It seems to mo 'prlcors aro getting more numer ous every day. Pretty nearly all of thom are men. Women often 'ask' prices, to be sure, without any notion of buying, but It Is always for future reference, and sooner or later many of them come back and buy. I guess there aro prlcers in all businesses, but this scorns to bo the limit, "That' man who has Just left has come In hero nearly overy day for I don't know bow long, and he's only one of mauy. Sometimes they eveu let mo get out things to show thom, fot, of course, yon can noTer tell but what you may oaten one at last.
