Prof. Holland Hblton. who accom panied the representatives, has now- left Lexington for Swarthmore, Pa., where he will join Messrs. Barnhard, Sext.on .and Farmer, who left last evening at 5:08 to debate the Penn sylvania college Friday' night on the abandonment of the Monroe doctrine. In the contest, with Washington and Lee, W. R. Shelton opened for Trinity who defended the affirmative.. , Me challenged his opponents to prove three things for the direct primary: 1. That the system is adupted to American institutions; 2, that the evils associated with if are not inher ent, and 3, that the direct primary can solve the fundamental problems of popular 'government.. Represn tative democracy was upheld as op posed to pure or extreme democracy Asserting that the key-word to true democracy is simplicity, not compli cations. Mr. Shelton proposed to safe guard fhe convention rather than adopt a new idea that has added evils. DAVID BRADY. Mr. Brady attacked the direct pri mary in all its forms, in all its theo ries in all its practices. He repudiated both open and closed primaries, de clared that experience showed the in feriority in a majority of cases of its candidates, and renounced the-system for its expense, the power it give:; the bosses, the multiplicity of candi dates and finally for the absence ol a platform-making body under it. HORACE GRIG3. Mr. Grigg defended the conven tion system. He claimed that the nom inating convention is betier fitted to solve the problems of American dem ocracy and that objections raised against this system are objections which can be applied one and all to popular government. Its admitted evils can be imore easily remedied than the evils of the direct primary which have already developed and which are yet to come forth. In con clusion Mr. Grigg gave proof to the effect that the nominating conven tion is preferable to the direct pri mary because it conies nearer insur ing government by the people and for the people. sixty days for extensive improvements in their respective passenger station equipment. The Seaboard, in fact, is ' directed to submit plans for a com pletely new passenger station. And. while the amount that this shall cost; is hot indicated in the order, it is un derstood that it will have to cost around $30, Odd to meet the require ments of th commission as to the type of station to be provided. The southern will be required to spend a considerable sum on its pres ent station to make it thoroughly com modious and it is .understood that the Norfolk Southern is to in the near fu ture provide a handsome new passen ger station "on the site of its present station, although this is not mentioned in the order just made by the corpora tion commission. payments. In this village prosperous colored .people are building commodious houses. They have an . architect of their own. Colored mechanics do nil the work. So successful seems the experiment that the colored families in (Philadelphia, Indianapolis or else where, which have accumulated some money, gravitate to this new com munity as a place of residence.- They can have there things their own way, and so work out with self-respect their own destiny. We Ibelieve this idea should be en couraged. Colored people are not al lowed to take anything but second placti in white communities, here or in the south. In such a community as this they will 'be able to secure for themselves "a place in the sun." Boston itleialuW-' :::..,...... ..' Repurchases Brario. Mr. D. E.

In the backwoods counties in Ken tucky thirty years ago every belle--and every girl who wasn't a belle appeared at church and . singing school in ruilied pantalettes, which were no less visible than lier pridc in her attire. There may be, and there doubtless are, some remote dis tricts in which pantalettes have nev er gone out of style. At-.any rate, they were the heights of backwoods fashion a generation ago, much to the amusement of city folk who pene trated occasionally the "wilds" where young swains "gallavanted" in sum mer time rejspjendently arrayed in "ruffle bosom'' shirts set oft -by flow ered sometimes hand embroidered galluses for which no apology was offered, and for the suitable display of which coats were removed. To "go out among 'em" the syn copated objective case of the plural pronoun of the third person meaning the unattached and possibly fancy free young women of the country side coatless, magnificently gaMlused immaculately shirted and rejoicing in "store shoes and britches" was the natural desire and normal diversion of every young man. Young women in pantalettes which seemed to be the dominant feature of the costume, the over shadowing sartorial triumph to which the rest of the habiliments led up, or,( rather, do-.vn, and appertained -swarmed from the highways and by ways to the "meetin' houses" upon sunny spring days when the forest was carpeted with larkspur, Dutch man's breeches, violets, cowslips and sweet William.
