The Kotttiimt Nt-Rro.
In the Intijftinffe of o southern writer
tho poneriition of minnes liorn rIppo
jtlic war lire just bi'j'inn'm to "feel
jthi-lr outs." A vn.st nnny of tlirm In
the nmith fire without the hi'.hi'. of huh
itnliH'd Industry mul of m-1 f i rst mint
Ipoxf-rsspcl by t!io!r fathers, e.u.-;ilel in
tho school of shivery. They rare notli
ln;r for tho liuv rnul the ol.lerrs of tho
Inw. They nre const nully in conflict
with theso and with the exasprrnrfrcl
public opinion of their vicinage. Thoy
nro enemies of soeiety, mul In tho In
terests of soeiety hhoul'.l bo placed
where they can do the least harm. An
orderly administration - of tho laws
every whero Is tho best safeguard that
jsoriety can have, but our Afro-Ameri--can
fellow-citizens daimte their cause
when they persistently place them
selves on the sldo of the criminal ele
ment of their rnee, In defiance of law
and publio opinion. To recognize tho
existence, of this criminal clement and
"labor to lift them up morally and
Intellectually," as Mr. Seott RiitfKets,
would be a fur more wise and Judicious
courso to pursue. It Is never safe to
justify the exinteno of abuses of what
ever sort; a manly recognition of them
and an honest cflrt to correct them
will always command rcsptt of those
whose respect Is worth having. "Tho
common nefrro" Is a natural product
of slavery and tho reaction from
slavery, llo Is In evidence in every
southern community and in a few of
the northern and western ones. Ho
complicates tho race problem. He
makes difiicult the pathway of the hon
est, respectable and ambitious mem
bers of his race. lie is too often, it is
true, made tho standard by which his
whole race Is judged, but under the
circumstances this is unavoidable. An
honest admission that he exists and
that ho is to be dealt with just as tho
criminal members of other races of tho
population are will be of incalculable,
advantage, to Afro-Americans and to
society generally.
A KVKXTY-BEVKX-YKAn-OI.D citizen
of Great Kalis, Wash., Is undergoing a
peculiar process of physical regenera
tion. About a year ago he contracted
pneumonia, and his life was for some
-time despaired of, the doctors saying
his right lung was hopelessly wasted.
He recovered, however, but when just
mble to hobblo around he fell and broke
his thigh bone, and was confined to the
bofipital again for six months. Since
leaving, however, .his physical condi-
tlon has improved remarkably. His
lungs began to open up until they be
came almost as well as ever; his skin
shed off and a new skin grew, and his
hair and beard, which were snow
'white, are coming out a jet black. Ills
limbs and muscles have limbered up,
and he started a week or so since to
take a herd of young horses across a
long trail to market lie says if ho
continues to grow young he will get
married again and grow tip with tho
'.country.
Tukkk is scarcely a husband who,
during the past four months, has not
urged his wife to learn to ride a wheel.
There is scarcely a husband of the lot
who does not now regret that he so
urged her. lie has found that it has
added to his nervous impairment, in
the ratio of about fifty per cent., and,
in addition thereto, ho has caught the
"husband neck." Thisstrango malady
is caused by the constant craning of
the neck, generally to the left, to see if
the wife of one's bosom is safo. Even
after the husband has found that his
vrffe has really became a skilled rider,
the habit remains. He can no more
lelp turning his head, at short inter
vals, than he can help imagining that
All sorts of dire disasters are befalling
Jher.
Tbebb is a dog owner in Philadel
phia who tells a story concerning his
canine companion that tries the belief
of his friends, but he vouches for its
truth. The dog is an intelligent look
lug animal of the shepherd variety,
and is frisky and full of fun. The par
ticular trait of which Its master boasts
is that when he wants the animal to
.stay in one place it is not necessary to
"tie him up. All that is needed is to
fasten one end of the rope to a conveni
ent post and give the other end to the
dog to hold In his mouth. The patient
animal will sit for hours in this way,
and would no more run away than he
; would fly.
Whkx dogs, cats and other animals
carried long distances on cars and
ataamers, sometimes confined in begs
and baskets, can, without asking any
.questions, find their way home, and
irds travelmg thousands of miles oome
"back year after year to the same nests,
and carrier pigeons to their dovecotes,
it Is pretty sure that they know some
tfclntr. n m. knowledge of which nO
"human being has yet attained. There
Is a vast field of animal intelligence to
be studied, and the more we study the
more we shall be filled with wonder
nd admiration.
