Oilman's odd Ideas la that not every mother It wIm enough or ha time enough to bring up bar children In the bent manner. For this reason Mm, Oilman thinks It would be In the Interest of the race If public nunMrtcs and homes were provided where mothers might hare their little ones taken cart of In the moat scien tific way. The public nursery abould be presided over by trained nums CHARLOTTE PKItXIXS CIL1UX. and sanltartana. and governesses, who would give the Infanta loving, llkswlae hygienic, care. The parents of the children meantime may have access to them at any time. When Mrs. Oilman promulgated her plan she was met by a ahower of Imprecation. It was said she would break up the family, that foundation stone Itaelf of civilization. Now, however, cornea a move looking toward patting Into practice the very suggestions of Mrs. Oilman. More over, It emanated from the Inner cir cle of Loudon nodal high life. In that city baa been started a children's hotel and nursery, whfcre1 rich people's little ones may be taken care of permanent ly and at the top notch of style and ten derness, the parenta paying liberally for the same. In London at least there must have been a demand for such an Infant hostelry or It would not have been established.

That plucky and untiring newspaper woman, Mrs. Alice Moore McComas, is In faraway South Africa on a tour with her gifted daughter, CarroIl-'Turroll the Whistler." The young lady, who whistles like a mocking bird, la likewise an actreea and a trained dancer. An advantageous offer to exhibit ber ac complishments on the stage In Europe was made to Miss Carroll, whereupon Mrs. McComas gave up for the time her own alma to accompany ber daughter on the tour. It has extended beyond what waa at first expected, and Carroll and ber mother are now In 8outh Af rica. Carroll meeting wlth great suc cess. A note waa recently received by a friend from Mrs. McComas In Johan nesburg. She writes of South Africa: 'This la a wonderful country, with a great future.

"At feMt," Bay the southern people, "In the old slave days the negroes were trained to usef ul work. The men learn ed carpentering, blucksmltblug and other trade, and the women were skilled cooks, nurses and seamstresses. The generation of free negroes thai has grown up since the civil war can do nothing, and the blacks are often idle and vlcipua." A young colored woman, Jennie Dean, of Manassas, Va., realised the truth of this charge agalnRt her people better even than the whites did and set herself to remedy It. She bad only good health, determi nation and an expert knowledge of cookery. Behold! With that capital ahe has established and now maintains an Industrial school farm of 120 acres. It has a docen excellent buildings. In which are taught to negro boys and girls skilled trades of all kinds. Girls learn cooking, sewing, general house work and child's nursing. Those who desire are also perfectly trained in poultry raising and dairying. The name of the enterprise Is the Manassas Industrial school. Jennie Dean saved her own wages as an expert cook. She next roused the ambition of the negroes themselves around Manassas. White friends both north and south aided Jennie in her work.

The lady should have held her to get an other place, but she was a selfish wom an and turned her servant away with the few dollars she owed ber to shift for herself. Mage's mother was a widow with tae child Ixnidcs Muggy, a boy two years old. It so happened that at the time of the girl's discharge her moth er fell sick, aud the money Maggy brought home from be mistress waa all the menu 4 the family possessed to pay rent and the ilo tor and buy food tud medicines. The eoiue (Wiice was that It wiM inure than exhuusted with in a few day. One night Maggy left her sick moth er and her little brother, wbw was cry ing for food, and went ont with des peration In her heart. She was walk ing along the street crying when she was stopped by a rough Hooking man with the question: "Hello, little girl! What's the mat terr Maggy gave an account of ber con dition and the reasons for It "Young woman," said the man, 'If you don't take care o' yourself no one won't take care o' you. I'm an escaped jailbird myself. Nobody won't give me no work, and I've g t to take what I need, whether the law allows or not gay, I've been wabhln' a bouse around the comer. There's a window open, Just enough for a girl like you to crawl t'irotigh. Besides, you'd step lighter 'n me. You go In and get mine swag, while I watch for cops outside." But one vision danced lefore Mag gy's eyfs--carrying home food to stop the crying of ber little brother. Her brain was not very capacious, and there was no room In It for more than one thought at a time. The lmmorajlty of the means by which she intended to procure the coveted result was crowd ed out Wie went with the man, who showed ber the window and, banding ber a revolver and a dark lantern, told her to use the former If it would save ber from being caught Maggy was so beside berself with ber proposed work that ahe took both mechanically, not knowing what she did. Entering the bouse and not finding anything of valuo in the lower rooms, she went up stairs. The door of a bedroom stood ajar, and she threw the light Into the room. On a bed lay a girl about her own ago, sleeping. She was a perfect picture of tranquillity, ber face an ex pression of absolute Innocence. Mag gy's light flashed on a dressing table, lighting up Jewels that had been laid aside for the night. Then she turned the rays again on ber from whom she was to take these Jewels. Maggy .was no more of a burglar than the sleeper. She was npt even naturally dishonest A. coincidence her meeting with the convict his point ing out s way by which to gain relief bad been too much for ber young pow ers of resistance. This defenseless in nocence cast as sudden a light into Maggy's moral nature as ber lantern cast upon the sleeper. Now, beside the bed in which the girl lay was an electric light button. The sleoper, when Maggy hnd flashed the light In ber face, partly awakened and listened, but hearing nothing, was about to sink to sleep again when she beard a low sob. Reaching up, she turned the button, and the room waa Illuminated. Perhaps no one ever saw a more nov el sight A girl about ber own age was on her knees In the middle of the floor, with ber hands clasped and her eyes raised In prayer. On one side of her on the floor was a lantern, on the other a revolver. There was little time to gaze on the picture, for In a moment a door without opened and a voice said: "There's somebody In the house." The awakened girl must have bad a brain capable of taking In a great deal ou sudden notice. At any rate, she saw a virion of her visitor marched to Jail, cad at the sume time ahe devised means to prevent such a result "Bring those things and put them un der the bed. Quick!" ahe said. Maggy, called to herself by her dan ger, obeyed. "Now get Into bed with me." Maggy had no sooner disappeared un der the covers than her bedfellow turn ed the button, and the room waa dark again. A man came to the door with a candle In one hand and a pistol In the other, asked the girl If she had seen or heard anything, went away, prowled for awhile about the bouse, then went back to bed. In the darkness, covered by the same bedclothes as her protector, Maggy told ber story. Just before day both girls arose and stole softly downstairs, and Maggy, afiter peeping through a crack to make sure that her tempter had gone away, walked out of the front door. The next day the girl Maggy had In tended to rob came to visit the Darr family. She carried many bundles, which gladdened the hearts of all, es pecially those tilings that Maggy had told her the Invalid needed. From that time forward she took them all under her especial care, and when ahe entered the social world and required the serv ices of a maid ahe Installed Maggy In the position. Her father never knew that the object of his daughter's boun ty. Indeed his daughter's maid, had first entered the house as a burglar. The daughter's act Is not held up as a modal for other young women. Indeed, she should hare acted only with the consent of ber father. But In this ease no harm resulted, for Maggy, after a few j ears In her service, married a wall to do earnenter. CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING. BATES t First Insertion, One Cent a Word.
